Oil on canvas, 59x29 cm, signed H. Norman '89. The painting is signed afterwards. In the lower right corner is an area that has been painted later, and a new signature has been painted in the lower left corner. The painting is probably painted around 1890-1910. Norman painted in heavy style but still very subtle. The painting is not being performed by Norman. Gunnar Kronström, Tranås, Sweden, owner of Gallery ”Konstgården” in Tranås, has stated that the subject is often found in the artist's decorative painting, but but the signature is not been carried out by Herman Norman. The District Court's assessment: The painting is a forgery and not done by Norman.
