"To Smaapiger Ved Etvindue" (English: "Two Small Girls at a Window") is a notable work by Peder Vilhelm Ilsted (1861–1933), a Danish painter and graphic artist who was a leading figure in the interior genre scene in Danish art. Ilsted, along with Carl Holsøe and Vilhelm Hammershøi, formed a trio of artists known as "The Interior Painters," whose work is characterized by serene, contemplative scenes depicting domestic interiors, often infused with a distinctive play of light and shadow.

Created in the early 20th century, "To Smaapiger Ved Etvindue" exemplifies Ilsted's meticulous technique and his fascination with the effects of natural light filtering through windows, which casts a soft glow and creates subtle nuances in the interior space. The painting portrays two young girls, possibly sisters, engaged in a quiet activity by a window, a common motif in Ilsted's oeuvre. The work is imbued with a sense of tranquility and introspection, hallmarks of Ilsted's style, which often evoke comparisons to the Dutch master Johannes Vermeer.

Ilsted's mastery in the mezzotint technique, a form of printmaking known for its rich gradations of light and shade, also translated into his oil paintings, as seen in "To Smaapiger Ved Etvindue." His attention to texture and detail, along with the harmonious composition, contribute to the painting's serene atmosphere and its representation of the simple, yet profound moments of everyday life.

As a significant piece within Ilsted's body of work, "To Smaapiger Ved Etvindue" not only reflects the artist's technical skill but also embodies the aesthetic and thematic concerns of Danish interior painting during the turn of the century. The painting is an important example of the cultural and artistic milieu of the period, offering insight into the domestic life and interior design of the time, as well as the broader trends in Scandinavian art.

"To Smaapiger Ved Etvindue" continues to be appreciated for its artistic merit and is often included in discussions of Ilsted's work and Danish art history. It remains an enduring piece that captures the quiet beauty of the mundane and the intimate moments of domesticity.
