Jenny Nyström Toddler at Midnight Clover Postcard

At the very stroke of midnight, a rosy-cheeked toddler climbs onto a windowsill — outside, a clock tower reads almost twelve, the deep-blue sky is full of stars, and the child holds a bouquet of four-leaf clovers like a tiny ambassador of fortune. The midnight window and lucky clovers are among the most recognisable motifs in Jenny Nyström's New Year work, rooted in Swedish traditions of welcoming the New Year with wishes of luck. Find it alongside other seasonal works in the Jenny Nyström collection.
