EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant photo print, titled "A Farewell" we are transported back to the year 1876, captured in oil on canvas by Christian Krohg. The painting depicts a heartfelt moment between a young girl and her elderly grandmother. The granddaughter stands with an expression of sadness and gloom, while the grandmother looks upon her with a mixture of beauty and moroseness. The composition is three-quarter length, allowing us to see the youthful features of the girl contrasted against the weathered face of her grandmother. It is evident that they are parting ways, as indicated by their expressions and body language. The scene evokes feelings of separation and unhappiness. Despite the melancholy atmosphere, there is also an element of comfort present in the image. We can sense that these two individuals share a deep bond through their physical proximity and gentle touch. It is as if the older woman is offering solace to her granddaughter during this difficult farewell. This artwork now resides at Gothenburg Art Museum in Sweden, where it continues to captivate viewers with its emotional depth and timeless portrayal of human connection. Through this print from Bridgeman Images' collection, we have been granted access to a moment frozen in time – one filled with both sorrow and love.
