About the piece
Painted in 1853 by Julius Exner, this Danish work depicts a mother and children visiting their grandfather in a room filled with traditional domestic details. From the spinning wheel and carved furniture to the chickens wandering on the stone floor, the scene is rendered with a warm, nostalgic light characteristic of the mid-19th century.
