Description
English: The Norwegian artist Harriet Backer is famous for her interiors with atmospheric lighting. Backer was a realist and strove to depict her subjects with the greatest possible veracity. She was also an Impressionist and created moods and atmospheres by showing how light affected colours and shapes. This is a rural setting, where the local shoe-maker is working in the light from the window. To achieve good lighting for his work, the shoe-maker has filtered the sunlight through a thin curtain. The working day ended at sunset.
Svenska: Den norska konstnären Harriet Backer är känd för sina bilder av interiörer med stämningsfull ljussättning. Backer var realist och strävade efter att skildra sina motiv så verklighetsnära som möjligt. Hon var även impressionist och skapade intryck och atmosfär genom att skildra hur färger och former påverkas av ljus. Här en lantlig miljö där bygdens skomakare arbetar i ljuset från fönstret. För skapa en bra arbetsbelysning har skomakaren bländat av solljuset med en skir gardin. När solen går ner är arbetsdagen slut.
