Christmas Morning is a 1909 by Unknown, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
The painting depicts a family gathered around a table, with a man standing at the head. The room is dimly lit, with a clock on the wall and a window with curtains. The family members are dressed in formal attire, and the atmosphere appears to be somber. In the foreground, a violin and bow lie on the table, suggesting a musical performance or practice. The man standing at the head of the table may be the father or patriarch of the family. The painting's use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and volume, drawing the viewer's attention to the central figures. The artist's attention to detail and use of light and shadow create a sense of intimacy and warmth, inviting the viewer to step into the scene.
