DescriptionDescription: Amalia Lindegren had studied extensively. She traveled to Paris, Munich and Rome, among other places, to develop her artistry. Here she has painted a motif that was very popular in Italy: a peasant woman carrying her child. The painting is an example of how artists conveyed an image of Italy as being a sort of paradise on earth, where people led a simple and timeless life.
