EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a bygone era in Switzerland. Titled "Guest House, 1879" this oil on canvas masterpiece was created by Ferdinand Hodler, a renowned Swiss artist from the late 19th century. The painting showcases the dining room of "Cafedu Cendrier" a charming inn run by Françoise Raimondet. Measuring 38.1 x 46 cm, this artwork is housed in the prestigious Kunstmuseum in Basel, Switzerland. The scene depicted transports viewers to a time when guests gathered around long wooden tables adorned with crisp white tablecloths and delicate porcelain dishes. The painting exudes an air of tranquility as figures engage in conversation while enjoying their meal. A young boy sits at one end of the table, his eyes filled with dreams and wonderment. In parallelism to his innocent presence, a servant diligently serves food to the guests. Hodler's use of symbolism and symbolist techniques adds depth to this piece, capturing not only the physical act of dining but also evoking emotions and narratives within each figure present. As you gaze upon this remarkable print from Bridgeman Images' collection, allow yourself to be transported back in time - immerse yourself in the ambiance of this quaint Swiss guest house where stories were shared over meals and memories were made for generations to come.
