About the piece

Painted in 1911, this work showcases Swedish master Anders Zorn's celebrated ability to render the play of light on water and textiles. The subject, a young woman from Älvdalen, is depicted in vibrant traditional attire, her form reflected in the rippling current of a forest brook against a lush green background.
