Kaksi naista is an unspecified by Antti Favén, held at Finnish National Gallery.
This painting shows two women standing close together. The woman on the left wears a dark, thick coat and has a serious expression. The woman on the right is smiling, dressed in a patterned jacket with a fur collar, and has her arm around the other woman’s waist. The brushstrokes are loose, especially on the faces and clothing, giving a soft, sketchy look. The dark background makes the women stand out. Next, check out chiaroscuro to see how light and shadow create depth in paintings.
