EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of tranquility and serenity in Hvile, also known as Repos. Painted by Vilhelm Hammershoi in 1905, this oil on canvas masterpiece is a testament to the artist's ability to evoke a sense of calmness through his work. The scene depicts a solitary figure resting in a dimly lit room, bathed in soft hues that create an atmosphere of peaceful solitude. The play of light and shadow adds depth and mystery to the composition, drawing viewers into the quiet contemplation of the subject. Hvile showcases Hammershoi's signature style characterized by its minimalistic approach and attention to detail. The Danish painter masterfully captures the stillness of everyday life, inviting us to pause and reflect upon our own moments of repose. Displayed at Musee d'Orsay in Paris, France, this painting has become an iconic piece within their collection since its acquisition in 1996. Its timeless beauty continues to captivate art enthusiasts from around the world who visit this prestigious museum. Through Sylvain Collet's skillful photography, we are able to appreciate every brushstroke and nuance present within Hvile. This print allows us to bring home a piece of artistic history while immersing ourselves in its serene ambiance whenever we gaze upon it.
