EDITORS COMMENTS
Sunday Morning" is a captivating 19th century oil painting by Hendrick Jacobus Scholten, showcasing the serene and peaceful atmosphere of an elderly woman's indoor sanctuary. The scene takes place in the Netherlands, as evidenced by the traditional Dutch furniture and decor. The woman, dressed in a voluminous cloak and a simple, high-necked dress, sits by the fireplace, her face illuminated by the soft glow of the fire. She is engrossed in a Bible, her expression reflecting deep contemplation and devotion. The room is adorned with a colorful carpet and soft furnishings, adding warmth and comfort to the space. A bulbous vase filled with vibrant flowers sits on the mantelpiece, contrasting the muted tones of the room and bringing a touch of nature indoors. The mantelpiece itself is adorned with a chimneypiece, fire tongs, and a crocheted cover, adding to the homely and inviting atmosphere. The woman's attire, made of rich fabrics such as silk, is a testament to the fashion of the time. Her cloak, made of a heavy, warm fabric, is draped over the back of her chair, while her dress, made of a lighter fabric, is simple and elegant. The use of color and texture in the painting adds depth and dimension, making it a visual feast for the eyes. This painting, titled "Sunday Morning," is a beautiful representation of the quiet and contemplative nature of the Dutch interior, as well as the importance of religion and literature in the daily lives of the people of the Netherlands during the 19th century. It is a treasure from the rich heritage of European art, now preserved in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
