The artwork, created using oil on canvas, measures 54x74 cm and is currently housed in the Nationalmuseum of Stockholm, Sweden.

This intriguing detail adds depth to the composition. The image portrays a foundry scene with men diligently working amidst piles of iron rods and carriers. It offers a glimpse into the labor-intensive process of weighing and transporting iron during that era. The scale itself takes center stage in this piece as it symbolizes both trade and industry. With its attention to detail and realistic portrayal of workers engaged in their craft, this painting captures not only a specific moment in time but also reflects upon Sweden's industrial history. It serves as a testament to the significance of ironworks within Scandinavian society during this period. Overall, "The old iron scales at Slussen" stands as an impressive representation of Swedish heritage while highlighting the importance of labor, trade, and industry within artistry.
