"Nordic Summer's Evening," Richard Bergh, 1899/1900.

I love how their bodies are turned toward each other, but they're both looking away....what's going on? The models are known; the woman is singer Karin Pyk, and the man is Prince Eugen of Sweden and Norway, although they were painted in at different times. Simultaneously restful and enigmatic, sadly overlooked.

From the Gothenburg Museum of Art, Sweden.
