EDITORS COMMENTS
Picking Flowers" is an exquisite oil on panel painting created by the renowned Swedish artist Hugo Salmson in 1882. The captivating image transports us back in time to the idyllic countryside of Sweden during the 19th century. Two young girls, dressed in traditional clothing, are depicted in the scene, each wearing an apron and carrying a basket. The older girl wears a long, flowing dress with a vibrant floral pattern, while the younger girl dons a simpler, more rustic outfit. The girls are engaged in the simple pleasure of picking wildflowers in the lush, green meadow. The scene is filled with a sense of serenity and innocence, as the girls enjoy the beauty of nature, surrounded by a myriad of colorful wildflowers. In the background, a rustic scythe leans against a tree, reminding us of the rural life that once defined this region. The painting is a beautiful example of the regionalism movement, which celebrated the unique qualities of rural life and the natural world. The use of rich, earthy colors and the attention to detail in the girls' clothing and accessories add depth and authenticity to the scene. This masterpiece is now a cherished part of the collection at the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, Sweden, where it continues to inspire and delight visitors. "Picking Flowers" is a poignant reminder of the simple joys of rural life and the beauty of the natural world, captured in the skilled brushstrokes of Hugo Salmson.
