Waltz 1891

Anders Zorn’s "Waltz" (1891) is a captivating oil painting depicting a couple waltzing at a formal ball. The artist's signature loose brushstrokes capture the movement of the dancers, with the woman's flowing gown creating a sense of grace and energy. Zorn's masterful use of light and shadow further emphasizes the intimacy of the scene, drawing the viewer's eye to the couple's embrace. This work is a prime example of Zorn's signature style, which blended Realism with Impressionism to create a visually striking and emotionally evocative representation of everyday life. It currently resides at the Biltmore Estate in Asheville, NC.
