I was thinking that it may be an incorrect translation of the Danish. The table behind the woman looks like it is made of pine, so maybe the title should be "In front of a pine [wood] table". Another thought I had was that maybe "In a pine wood" is a line or the caption of an illustration in the book she is reading, suggesting that she is engrossed in the book.
