DALSGAARD, Christen

(b. 1824, Skive, Jutland, d. 1907, Sorø)

The picture features a young woman standing in an open doorway looking off to one side. One foot is on the door frame, and one foot is on the ground outside. The interior is dark and shadowed. The outside is a sunlit agrarian landscape. The title of the painting refers to her inner dialogue.

The painting is typical of Dalsgaard's style.

На картине изображена молодая женщина, стоящая в открытом дверном проеме и смотрящая в сторону. Одна нога стоит на дверном проеме, а другая — на земле снаружи. Внутри темно и затенено. Снаружи — залитый солнцем аграрный пейзаж. Название картины отсылает к ее внутреннему диалогу. Картина типична для стиля Дальсгаард.

Christen Dalsgaard (Oct. 30, 1824 - 1907) was a Danish painter of the National Romantic school. Preferring nostalgic scenarios involving peasants in old-fashioned garb engaged in quaint activities, Dalsgaard was definitely on the conservative side of the art spectrum in the 19th century in Denmark. He also liked to repeatedly paint sentimental pieces with girls pining for letters from their beloved and other genre painting set pieces.
