About the Item

This delightful painting by Carl Ewald Lönngren captures a serene moment of rural life in late 19th-century Sweden. The scene shows a mother kneeling by a wash basin, surrounded by her children, all framed by a lush summer landscape. Apple trees laden with fruit and a charming red wooden house in the background evoke the simplicity and beauty of the Swedish countryside. Lönngren's meticulous brushwork and skillful use of light imbue the composition with warmth and a sense of nostalgia. The natural, everyday setting reflects the artist’s talent for portraying intimate moments that resonate with timeless charm. Carl Ewald Lönngren was born in Stockholm in 1839 and studied at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts from 1873 to 1877. Known for his detailed and atmospheric depictions of Stockholm cityscapes, rural landscapes, and interiors, Lönngren’s work holds significant cultural and historical value. His paintings often balance human activity with the natural environment, showcasing his mastery of light and atmosphere. Lönngren exhibited his works with the Stockholm Art Association and in cities such as Härnösand and Borås. Today, his art can be found in several prestigious collections, including the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, Östergötlands Museum, Uppsala University Library, and Bornholm Art Museum in Denmark.
