About this work

This photo shows three people sitting indoors, dressed in old-fashioned clothes. The woman on the left wears a light yellow dress and stands near a table. The person in the middle, sitting in a chair, has a white cap and holds a small object. The person on the right, also seated, wears a dark dress with a white collar and holds something in their lap. The painting’s title means "The Friar’s Visit" and shows costumes from the time of Ludvig Holberg, a Danish writer. The clothes look like they’re from the early 1700s. Look up Museum of Ethnography to see more historical costumes like these.
