A Corner of the Artist´s Father's House is a 1845 unspecified by Christen Købke, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
This painting shows a quiet corner of a house, with a large tree in the foreground and a picket fence surrounding the yard. The house is on the left side of the image, with a window and a door visible. The tree is tall and has a lot of leaves, and the fence is made of wood and has a gate in the middle. The painting is done in muted colors, with shades of brown and green dominating the scene. The overall effect is one of serenity and peacefulness, with the tree and the fence creating a sense of enclosure and protection.
