Jenny Nyström — Child Asleep on Christmas Eve with Toys

Curly-haired and fast asleep, this child has fallen into Christmas Eve clutching a toy soldier and a small doll — gingerbread figures on the windowsill, a Christmas branch with red ornaments beyond the glass. Jenny Nyström understood the particular stillness of julafton before the presents are unwrapped: the child who fell asleep mid-play, already dreaming. The perfect greeting for anyone who remembers that feeling. From the Jenny Nyström collection, on 350 g/m² art stock at 10×15 cm.
