Muut tiedot

The portrait depicts the artist's wife, Berta (born Kerfstedt), whom Carl Wilhelmson had married the year before. Axel L. Romdahl wrote in his biography from 1938:

"In 1901, a new female figure entered the family circle. On June 24, in Uppsala Cathedral, Carl Wilhelmson was wed to the talented and cheerful young painter Berta Kerfstedt, daughter of Dr. Johannes Kerfstedt, the principal of the Fjellstedt School, and his wife, formerly Nordien."

Based on Romdahl's catalog (in turn based on Wilhelmson's own catalog), the portrait appears to be one of the very first that Wilhelmson executed with his wife as a model, preceded only by a small watercolor (31.5 x 46.5 cm) created in Utterbyn, Värmland earlier in the same summer. "With its unusual 'Japanese' dimensions, the painting demonstrates Wilhelmson's phenomenal skill in composition."
