From the notes of Gerda Böethius:
"In 1903, Zorn acquired a loft from the 16th century and set it up next to the old studio at Zorngården. He now got a variety of new lighting options, which capitvated him and his brush through the years. A small four-pass slit in the outer wall and the secondary light from the corridor was the only light sources. There was no fireplace, nor did he arrange with with skylights. All paintings in the loft or in which the loft bed are included have been painted there and it is with the concentrated light rays from the four-pass window that he brings out the flickering light in 'Omorgnad' "
