About the piece

Painted in 1891 by Jacob Gløersen, this work captures a nostalgic moment of connection within a traditional Norwegian home. The scene is bathed in the soft, diffused light of a window adorned with lace, highlighting the rich textures of wood, textiles, and antique furnishings like the grandfather clock and tall dresser.
