"Vid Spisen" (English: "By the Fireplace") is a renowned painting by the eminent Swedish artist Anders Leonard Zorn (1860–1920), who is celebrated for his portraits and depictions of rustic Swedish life. Created in 1894, this work exemplifies Zorn's masterful use of light and shadow, as well as his skill in capturing the intimate and warm atmosphere of indoor scenes.

The painting portrays a woman seated by a fireplace, engaged in a moment of quiet reflection or domestic activity, a common theme in Zorn's oeuvre that reflects his interest in everyday Swedish life and culture. The woman's face is illuminated by the soft glow of the fire, which contrasts with the darker, muted tones of the surrounding room, creating a sense of coziness and seclusion.

Zorn's technique in "Vid Spisen" is characterized by his distinctive brushwork, with fluid and confident strokes that suggest form and texture without meticulous detail. His use of the "wet-on-wet" painting technique allows for the seamless blending of colors, particularly evident in the rendering of the flickering firelight and its effects on the surrounding environment.

As a leading figure in Swedish national-romantic art at the turn of the 20th century, Zorn's works, including "Vid Spisen," have been instrumental in shaping the visual narrative of Swedish identity. His paintings are celebrated for their ability to evoke the spirit of the time and are considered national treasures. "Vid Spisen" is not only a testament to Zorn's artistic prowess but also a valuable cultural artifact that offers insight into the domestic life of Sweden during this period.

Today, "Vid Spisen" is held in high regard and can be found in the collection of the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, which houses the largest collection of Zorn's works. The painting continues to be a subject of study for art historians and a beloved piece for admirers of Zorn's work, contributing to the enduring legacy of one of Sweden's most prominent artists.
