A mid-20th-century oil on canvas depicting a quiet interior scene within an attractive Danish cottage. The artist, C. Sørensen, specialised in interior scenes and we love the way they’ve captured the light. Note how the window is partially reflected in the antique print of the Madonna and Child.

Sørensen painted this room multiple times so it’s a place he knew well.

The painting is signed in the lower right and held within a frame that’s possibly its original.
