Maisema (hevosvaunut) is a 1910 by Eero Järnefelt, held at Järvenpää Art Museum.
This painting shows a quiet country road by a lake. A dirt path winds through grassy hills, with a few trees—some tall and twisted, others small and leafy. In the distance, a horse and wagon move slowly along the path, while the water reflects the soft blue sky. The colors are warm and natural, with greens, browns, and muted blues blending together. The brushstrokes look thick in spots, giving the scene a textured feel. The artist seems to focus on light and shadow playing across the landscape. This style reminds me of impasto.
