The window became a prominent symbol in 19thC art, representing a threshold between the interior and exterior, and a space for contemplation and longing. 'View of Rome from the Artist’s Room at the Villa Medici,' by Constant Moyaux was painted in 1863.

Eugène Jansson's painting from 1898 depicts the large expanse of water in central Stockholm known Riddarfjäden. Jansson was one of the most significant artists in the last years of the 19thC to create a style of painting that reflected the essence of Scandinavia.
