About this work

Overview

Vihannes- ja kala-asetelma is a still life painting by Fanny Churberg, depicting a table laden with food and simple kitchenware.

Subject & Meaning

The arrangement includes a whole fish, a large cabbage, and a gourd-like vegetable, accompanied by two small bowls, one containing salt or spices. The dark background highlights the still life, creating a sense of depth.

Technique & Style

Thick brushstrokes, particularly on the fish and cabbage, achieve a textured effect. The lighting, coming from the top left, casts shadows that add to the three-dimensional appearance of the objects, characteristic of the impasto technique.
