The artwork titled “Lisbeth fishing” was created by the artist Carl Larsson in 1898 in Sweden. This piece, executed in watercolor on paper, belongs to the Art Nouveau (Modern) movement and fits within the genre painting category. Currently, the artwork is housed in the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, Sweden.
The artwork depicts a serene scene of a young girl, Lisbeth, standing on a wooden deck while engrossed in fishing. She gazes out over a tranquil body of water, surrounded by lush greenery with hints of red structures and livestock in the background. The girl’s attire, featuring a red cap and a plaid dress, adds a charming touch to the composition. The piece beautifully captures a peaceful moment of rural life, highlighting Larsson’s skill in rendering delicate, everyday scenes with a soft and vibrant color palette typical of the Art Nouveau style.
