Den fortabte søns hjemkomst is a 1850 by Unknown, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
This room shows four people in a dimly lit space. One woman stands in a long, light-colored dress, holding a small object. A man in a dark coat leans over a table, while another man in green sits nearby. A woman in a dark dress sits slumped in a chair, her head resting on her hand. The walls are plain, with a single framed picture hanging above the table. The woman standing wears a white head covering, which looks unusual for the time. The painting’s lighting is soft, with shadows blending into the background. This style reminds you of *chiaroscuro*, where light and dark create drama.
