A Day of Celebration

oil on canvas • 88 x 110 cm
  • Fanny Brate - 26 February 1861 - 22 April 1940 Fanny Brate 1902

The artist Fanny Brate depicts her daughters, Astrid and Torun, in the Brate family home in Bergslagen in central Sweden. The image combines the fin-de-siècle dream of a happy childhood with manor-house romanticism and the meadow flowers of Swedish summer. The light interior design ideals of today derive in part from this tradition, which in turn drew inspiration from Swedish vernacular objects, domestic crafts, and the English Arts and Crafts movement. A charming scene, isn't it?

We present today's painting thanks to the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm. : )
