Sininen maljakko is an unspecified by Alfred William Finch, held at Finnish National Gallery.
This painting shows a bright blue vase on a table. Next to it is a small wooden bowl and a folded cloth with blue and brown patterns. The background is a rough, warm mix of orange and yellow brushstrokes. The cloth’s folds look almost like waves, with quick, sketchy lines. The blue vase stands out against the messy, textured background. If you like this loose, bold style, try looking up impasto.
Alfred William (Willy) Finch (1854 –1930) was a ceramist and painter in the pointillist and Neo-Impressionist style. Born in Brussels to British parents, he spent most of his creative life in Finland.
