{"product_id":"the-apple-harvest-carl-larsson","title":"The Apple Harvest - Carl Larsson","description":"\u003cp\u003eA charming watercolour by Carl Larsson depicting a peaceful autumn apple harvest in the garden of his Swedish family home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCarl Larsson, a central figure in Swedish art at the turn of the twentieth century, produced this watercolour as part of his celebrated series depicting life at Lilla Hyttnäs, his family home in Sundborn. The scene captures a quiet, domestic moment during the autumn fruit collection. A woman in a blue dress stands in the middle distance, while a child in a red cap and blue coat occupies the foreground, engaged with the harvest. A wooden ladder leans against a heavy-laden apple tree, suggesting the practical nature of the task.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLarsson employs a clear, linear style that draws upon the aesthetic principles of the Arts and Crafts movement. The composition balances the open space of the meadow with the detailed foliage of the orchard. His use of watercolour allows for a light, airy quality, particularly in the treatment of the grass and the soft sky. The red timber building visible in the background provides a characteristic touch of Swedish vernacular architecture, grounding the scene in its specific geographical context. The work avoids excessive sentimentality, focusing instead on the rhythmic, seasonal activities of rural life. The lines are precise, defining the forms of the trees and the figures without obscuring the transparency of the medium. This piece reflects the artist's interest in domestic harmony and the beauty found in everyday chores, presented with a clarity that remains accessible and visually engaging. The palette is dominated by natural tones, with the green of the orchard and the muted reds of the fruit and architecture creating a balanced, seasonal atmosphere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/ruth-and-boaz-walter-crane\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eRuth and Boaz - Walter Crane — Walter Crane\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/love-is-enough-initial-letter-l-entwined-with-laurel-leaves-william-morris-1\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eLove is Enough - Initial letter 'L' entwined with Laurel Leaves - William Morris — William Morris\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Carl Larsson","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58345769730383,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58345770877263,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58345770910031,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58345770942799,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58345770975567,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58345771008335,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58345771041103,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58345771073871,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58345771106639,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58345771139407,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58345771172175,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58345771204943,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/The-Apple-Harvest_Poster_CompositorV1_1785392431018.jpg?v=1785396962","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/the-apple-harvest-carl-larsson","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
