About the piece
In this 1909 masterpiece, German Impressionist Fritz von Uhde captures a quiet moment between two sisters. The older girl, dressed in a vibrant blue pinafore, gazes toward the viewer while her younger sister, in white, looks down thoughtfully. Uhde’s signature mastery of light is evident in the warm glow that illuminates their figures against the textured shadows of the room.
