Brilliantly 1894

Theodor Kittelsen’s humorous illustration, *Brilliantly*, from 1894, depicts a fantastical scene of anthropomorphic animals in an artist’s studio. A green frog, dressed in a suit, stands proudly in front of a large canvas as a group of snails, wearing top hats and coats, admire his work. The scene is filled with colorful details and witty observations of artistic practice, characteristic of Kittelsen’s unique style.
