Support this is a Danish guy, very good one too. This is a very typical Danish home, the kind of interiors one can find in the museum now. I think that furniture indeed was made 1828. Martinus Rørbye's student. (the window man...) Hafspajen (talk) 21:48, 6 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Support – Intriguing. (It would be interesting to know what "a pine wood" refers to.) Sca (talk) 21:57, 6 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I was thinking that it may be an incorrect translation of the Danish. The table behind the woman looks like it is made of pine, so maybe the title should be "In front of a pine [wood] table". Another thought I had was that maybe "In a pine wood" is a line or the caption of an illustration in the book she is reading, suggesting that she is engrossed in the book.
