Luonnos teokseen Leikkiviä poikia rannalla is a 1889 unspecified by Albert Edelfelt, a Realism work, held at Finnish National Gallery.
This painting shows two shirtless boys by the water. One stands on the shore, holding a stick, while the other sits in a small boat, resting his chin on his hand. The background is a calm lake with a distant shoreline, and the colors are soft and warm, mostly browns, blues, and whites. The brushstrokes are loose and quick, giving the scene a sketchy feel. The boys look relaxed, like they’re just hanging out by the water. If you like this style, check out impasto.
