Ateneum-lehden kansiehdotus, julkaisija Wentzel Hagelstam (takakannen kuva) is a 1900 unspecified by Albert Edelfelt, a Impressionism work, depicting Reading, held at Finnish National Gallery.
The image depicts a woman reading a book, with another woman in the background. The woman in the foreground is seated, engrossed in her reading, while the woman behind her stands, possibly a statue or a figure in a painting within the scene. The setting appears to be a room with a window, through which the night sky and a full moon are visible. The overall atmosphere is one of quiet contemplation, with the women lost in their own thoughts.
