About ‘Portrait of a Young Girl, Hugo Salmson’
Porträtt av ung flicka (Portrait of a Young Girl), Hugo Salmson
Hugo Salmson is an almost forgotten artist today, but in the 19th century he was highly successful, known among other things for his considerable technical ability. This girl in a chair is painted with a skill that bears comparison with the more celebrated names of 19th-century art. Salmson was sometimes criticised for a stiffness in his images, but that is scarcely the case here. The technical precision of the painting, combined with the girl’s defiant look, overshadows the admittedly rather arranged character of the portrait.
