General description from the museum (© Copyright - Nationalmuseum Stockholm - www.nationalmuseum.se)

English: To this day, Hanna Hirsch-Pauli’s painting Breakfast - Time from 1887 is still able to trigger feelings of intense sensual pleasure from our visitors. “We truly feel invited; it is just like our very own breakfast ritual. The chairs are waiting for us and we can almost feel how the heavy teapot tilts as we lift it.” The table which is laid with beautiful objects gives associations to family life and domesticity. The image shows a corner of reality, where the bourgeois dining room has been removed to the garden. This is an open-air painting suffused with light. The subject is dappled with reflections that give the objects a suggestive shimmer. It is a juste-milieu painting, being at once anchored in the classicist tradition with its linear perspective, but also inspired by the way the Impressionists depicted light with colour. Like many Swedish artists at the time, Hanna Hirsch-Pauli studied in Paris and exhibited at the Salon. The use of light, the lively brushstrokes and the thickly applied paint outraged several Swedish critics at the time. They saw her technique as “slipshod” and one critic meant that the flecks of light on the table cloth were probably the result of the artist “wiping” her own brushes on it. In the late 1880s Breakfast - Time played a major role in Hanna Hirsch-Pauli’s breakthrough as an artist. Already an accomplished colourist, as we can see, she went on to develop those skills in her portrait painting. Bilden visar ett utsnitt av verkligheten där den borgerliga matsalen flyttats ut i naturen. Det uppdukade bordet som är fyllt av vackra föremål skall ge associationer till familjeliv och hemtrevnad. Frukostdags är en av museets populäraste bilder.”Man känner sig inbjuden, det känns som min frukoststund. Stolen väntar på mig och jag kan känna hur tekannan vickar när man lyfter den.” (Citat från publikundersökning gjord på Nationalmuseum.) Frukostdags spelade en stor roll i Hanna Paulis genombrott i det nordiska konstlivet i slutet på 1880-talet. Hon hade nyligen studerat i Paris vid Académie Colarossi och kommit in på Paris-salongen 1887 med porträttet av den finska konstnären Venny Soldan (idag i Göteborgs konstmuseum). Frukostdags är en friluftsmålning, bordet och lövverket är upplösta av ljusreflexer, som ger föremålen ett suggestivt skimmer. Konstnären har delvis inspirerats av impressionisternas sätt att skildra ljuset med färg. Motivet var populärt bland de realistiska konstnärerna vid den här tiden och Hanna Pauli var främst påverkad av den franske konstnären Jules Bastien - Lepages måleri. Ljusbehandlingen, den livliga penselskriften och de delvis tjockt pålagda färgfälten upprörde flera samtida svenska kritiker. Man såg Hanna Paulis teknik som alltför modern och en kritiker antog att ljusfläckarna på bordsduken berodde på att konstnären själv torkat sina penslar på den. Hanna Pauli ställde bland annat ut Frukostdags på Världsutställningarna i Paris 1889 och Chicago 1893. Samma år som hon målade bilden förlovade hon sig med konstnären Georg Pauli och de bosatte sig småningom i Stockholm och fick tre barn. Trots att hon fick ta ett stort ansvar för både hem och barn lyckades hon fortsätta med sin karriär och hade ett långt yrkesliv.

In the product dropdown selection you can pick your prefered size and material. Choose your favorite size and material between the subsequent options:

• Printed acrylic glass: The print on acrylic glass, which is sometimes labelled as a UV print on plexiglass, will turn your favorite original into décor and is a viable alternative to aluminium or canvas fine art replicas. The work of art is manufactured with the help of state-of-the-art UV direct printing machines. The major upside of a plexiglass fine art copy is that contrasts plus image details become recognizeable with the help of the subtle tonal gradation.
• Aluminium dibond print (metal): Aluminium Dibond prints are metal prints with an impressive depth effect. A direct Aluminium Dibond Print is your ideal start to fine art reproductions on aluminum. For your Aluminium Dibond option, we print the selected work of art on the surface of the white-primed aluminum. The colors of the print are bright and vivid, the details of the print appear very clear, and you can truly feel a matte appearance of the print. This UV print on aluminium is one of the most demanded entry-level products and is a truly contemporary way to showcase artworks, since it draws attention on the whole artwork.
• Canvas: The canvas direct print is a printed canvas stretched on a wooden frame. Further, a canvas print generates a nice and appealing feeling. Canvas prints are relatively low in weight, meaning that it is easy to hang up your Canvas print without the support of extra wall-mounts. A canvas print is suited for any type of wall.
• Poster print (canvas material): The Artprinta poster is a UV printed sheet of flat canvas paper with a fine surface structure. It is suited for placing your art print with the help of a custom frame. Please keep in mind, that depending on the absolute size of the canvas poster print we add a white margin of around 2-6 cm around the print to facilitate the framing.
