About this artwork

Painted in 1898, this oil on canvas by Vilhelm Hammershøi shows a young man reading in an interior. A book, a chair and a curtain share the room with him, and the arrangement keeps the scene calm and uncluttered. Hammershøi, a Danish painter, is known for subdued, poetic portraits and interiors, and this picture sits comfortably within that approach. The original belongs to the Hirschsprung Collection.

On your wall: Its quiet subject and restrained feel suit a study, a reading corner, a bedroom or a calm living space where simplicity matters.

About Vilhelm Hammershøi

Vilhelm Hammershøi was a Danish painter, sometimes written as Hammershoi in English. He is known for portraits and interiors with a poetic, subdued quality. In 1905 the poet Rainer Maria Rilke observed that his work is wide-ranging and unhurried, and always offers a way into talking about what matters in art.
