Description
English: This painting is a study for the one in the Hirschsprung Collection in Copenhagen. In the art magazine Antik og Auktion no. 4, 2002 the story of the painting was recounted by Viggo Johansen's grandchild, professor Tobias Faber. The artwork is based on a touching story: In Viggo Johansen's childhood home there was no dancing around the christmas tree. Viggo Johansen's father had forbidden it, because it reminded him of Viggo's brother, who died very young. But when Viggo Johansen became a father himself, he never held back, as told by his daughters Gerda and Bodil. Especially in 1891, where he bought one of the largest christmas trees in Copenhagen for the appartment in Amaliegade 35, where he lived with his wife Martha and their six children. He also decided to make a painting of the festivities around the tree, and it stayed in the room for four months. No one was allowed to touch it and when the needles of the fir tree began to fall off, the family had to find new spruce branches to tie to the tree, so Viggo Johansen could finish his painting.
Dansk: Dette maleri er et studie til det værk, der befinder sig i den Hirschsprungske Samling. I Antik og Auktion 4, 2002 fortæller Viggo Johansens barnebarn professor Tobias Faber om tilblivelsen af "Juleaftensbilledet" på den Hirschsprungske Samling. Baggrunden for maleriet bygger på en rørende historie: I Viggo Johansens eget barndomshjem dansede man aldrig omkring juletræet, da faderen ikke ønskede at mindes en elsket afdød søn, - Viggos bror. Til gengæld tog Viggo Johansen revanche, da han selv blev far, husker døtrene Gerda og Bodil. Især i 1891 hvor faderen, udover at anskaffe ét af byens største og flotteste juletræer til boligen i Amaliegade 35, hvor han boede med Martha og deres seks børn, også malede dette. Træet stod i stuen i 4 måneder! Ingen måtte røre det, og da nålene faldt af, blev der bundet grangrene på træet, så Viggo Johansen kunne færdiggøre motivet.
