EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th century watercolor painting, titled "Woman in Costume" by Per Sodermark, showcases the traditional apparel of the 1850s in Sweden. The woman, dressed in a vibrant red costume, gazes directly at the viewer with an enigmatic expression. She wears a voluminous, high-waisted dress with full sleeves, adorned with intricate patterns and white lace. A matching apron covers the front of her dress, adding an extra layer of texture and detail. The woman's bonnet, also in red, sits atop her head, with a white shawl draped around her shoulders. Her hat features a delicate floral design and a large bow at the back, adding a feminine touch to her outfit. The woman's sleeves are rolled up at the elbow, revealing a hint of her forearms, and her hands are tucked into the folds of her apron. This painting is a testament to the rich heritage of Nordic fashion during the 19th century, and is a valuable addition to the Nordiska Museet Foundation's collection. The direct gaze of the woman adds a sense of intimacy and connection, making it a fascinating piece for anyone interested in the history of clothing and fashion. The use of watercolor adds a soft, ethereal quality to the painting, making it a beautiful and intriguing work of art. Overall, this painting provides a glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the traditional clothing and fashion of Sweden during the 1850s.
