Muut tiedot
Arosenius spends the summer of 1904 together with fellow artist Axel Törneman in Normandy. They settle in the small fishing village of Coudeville, where they find accommodation in a rural inn. Arosenius writes about the stay in a letter to his mother: 'It's hot as hell here, so one can't muster the energy to go anywhere. [...] There's a tavern on the ground floor, and in the evenings, the fishermen come and sit down to drink, and we usually sit there sometimes and practice our French.' Arosenius depicts the inn's tavern in a watercolor from 1904 (see image).
The current watercolor at the auction, titled 'Kägelspel” also portrays life in Normandy, and Karl Asplund asserts that it was also created in 1904. Asplund claims that the 1903 date on the artwork is thus incorrectly indicated by the artist.
