Windy night, Stockholm
Item Information
- Title:
- Windy night, Stockholm
- Description:
-
In the foreground is the Norrström, in which float six boats, each carrying a round floating net; they are moored to the wall of the Strömparterren (a public garden) on Helgeandsholmen. People lean on the rails, watching the fishing-boats. Two poplars sway in the wind towards the left. In between the trees is seen a fountain, with a statue rising from its center. Beyond a bridge (Norrbro) is the Opera House, the facade of which is brilliantly lighted. Night effect, with black stormy sky. Topographically incorrect, the subject being shown in reverse from the trial plate, which was true to nature.
