The Little Knitters
Albert Anker 1892
Albert Anker (Ins, Switzerland 1831-1910) was a popular and successful painter of Swiss village life and still lifes in the 19th century. Illustration work steadied up his income. He's often referred to as Switzerland's National Painter, so enduring is his popularity
