"Gevinsten i tallotteriet" (The Winning Lottery Ticket), painted in 1848 by Julius Friedlænder, depicts a scene of joyous celebration within a humble home. The painting showcases the artist's mastery of realism and his keen eye for detail, capturing the intimate moments of everyday life. A man, likely the head of the household, dances with glee after winning the lottery, while his family observes with smiles and affection. This heartwarming depiction of a shared moment of good fortune exemplifies the genre of genre painting popular in 19th-century Denmark. The artwork is currently housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst.
