1889
unspecified
From the collection of Finnish National Gallery
Tyttöjä veneessä is a 1889 unspecified by Albert Edelfelt, a Realism work, held at Finnish National Gallery.
This painting shows two people in a small boat on calm water. One is rowing in a light dress and hat, while the other sits quietly in the shade. The background has a few ships and a distant shoreline with trees, all softened by a pale sky. The brushstrokes are loose, almost sketchy, giving the scene a gentle, unfinished feel. The colors are muted—soft blues, greens, and pinks—with just a hint of warmth in the sky. Check out how the artist used *impasto* to build up thick paint in places.
Albert Gustaf Aristides Edelfelt (21 July 1854 – 18 August 1905) was a Finnish painter noted for his naturalistic style and Realist approach to art.
