A quiet room in the artist's Copenhagen flat — pale walls, a door, soft grey light from a window. Hammershøi painted these rooms again and again.
Why it's great for language
Bare room with door, window and chair — perfect for prepositions, there is/there are and quiet describing.
A gentle note
Vilhelm Hammershøi's work fits prepositions of place, 'there is / there are', describing people better than "present simple". Try one of those focuses, or pick another artist from the gallery.
