The Front Yard and the Wash House by Carl Larsson, 1897. Carl Larsson's little girl, all bundled up in her winter coat, pushes her little sled toward the red-painted wash house and the frozen lake where her old brother is putting on his ice skates. A midwinter sun shines through the frosty mist and the branches of a birch tree. A sheaf of wheat hangs high in a tree, food for birds which have gathered.

About the artist: Larsson, Carl (b Stockholm, 28 May 1853; d Falun, 22 Jan. 1919) was a Swedish painter, illustrator, printmaker, and writer. His work included numerous portraits and book illustrations, as well as several large murals (the best known are those on Sweden's artistic history in the Nationalmuseum, Stockholm, 1896), but he is now remembered mainly his watercolors of the idyllic life he enjoyed in his now-famous house in the village of Sundborn with his wife Karin and their eight children.
