Carl Larsson School Lunch Fine Art Poster Print

As he so often did, Carl Larsson chose a simple task in a simple setting as the subject of his painting. Here, his daughter Lisbeth sets the table for the students' lunch. Description: Lisbeth, dressed in a simple loose frock, sets plain white plates on the table in preparation for lunch. A lamp hangs over the table, spreading a warm glow on the butternut colored walls and reflects in the glass panes covering the pictures. Simple red furniture adds color around the periphery and geometric lines which draw the eye toward the subject and framing it. This is the full bleed (borderless version intended for use as a poster. A fine art print intended for matting and framing is available in my gallery's Art of Carl Larsson Collection. The white border on the print version makes the mounting and matting process easier if you plan on framing it. The default setting here is for the "basic" paper option. Do try out the other paper options and choose the one which suits your taste and budget. The papers with UV protection will give you a longer lasting print, one you can hand down in the family, and I would certainly recommend this option if you plan to hang the print in a sunny location. I would not choose the canvas option myself, as it is not in keeping with this print (the original being watercolour on paper, not oil on canvas). About the original work of art: Artist: Carl Larsson Title: In the Kitchen Date: 1898 Medium: Watercolor About the artist:Carl Larsson, (b Stockholm, 28 May 1853; d Falun, 22 Jan. 1919) was a Swedish painter, illustrator, printmaker, and writer. His work included numerous portraits and book illustrations, as well as several large murals (the best known are those on Sweden's artistic history in the Nationalmuseum, Stockholm, 1896). Sweden's most beloved artist, he is now remembered mainly for his watercolors of the idyllic life he enjoyed in his now-famous house in the village of Sundborn with his wife Karin and their eight children. In the words of a contemporary critic, "these are altogether charming -- spirited, vivid, original and full of an indescribable freshness and heartiness." This artwork was lovingly prepared for print by a professional graphic artist. This is an ultra-high-resolution file and will print beautifully even at the larger sizes. I have carefully corrected the "haze build up" (the smoke, grease and dust which eventually dulls the orignal artwork) in the manner of an art conservationist (but using digital means and state-of-the-art software) while retaining the charming patina of age. I have also carefully removed stains and fly specks here and there and stray marks incurred after it left the artist's hands, but left the artist's original pencil marks and tiny ink dots alone, as they are part of the original charm of the painting.
