What does the original artwork description of the Nationalmuseum Stockholm state about this artwork created by Carl d'Unker? (© - Nationalmuseum Stockholm - Nationalmuseum Stockholm)

English: The mood is morose. I In the background we can just about make out the clerk in the dusky lighting. Around the mid-19th century, art collectors were insatiable when it came to sentimental scenes of poverty. One of the artists who painted such motifs, Carl d’Unker, was unusual, however, since his pictures such as this one or scenes from railway station waiting rooms, revealed the darker sides of class society. Stämningen är dämpad. Någon argumenterar vid disken med ägaren till pantlånekontoret och en annan räknar pengarna efter att ha pantsatt sina ägodelar. I bakgrunden skymtar man bokhållaren i skum belysning. Kring 1800-talets mitt verkar den konstsamlande publiken inte ha kunnat få nog av sentimentala motiv från fattiga miljöer. Bland konstnärerna som ägnade sig åt sådana var Carl d’Unker speciell, eftersom han i bilder som denna eller scener ur väntsalar på tågstationer skildrade klassamhällets sidor.
