unspecified
From the collection of Finnish National Gallery
Urajärven museo is an unspecified by Alfred William Finch, depicting Cottage, held at Finnish National Gallery.
This painting shows a small red cottage with a white-trimmed door and window. The house has a simple, slanted roof, and a patch of grass grows right up to its walls. A big tree with thick green leaves stands in front, casting shadows on the ground. Bright red flowers add a pop of color near the house. The brushstrokes are thick and visible, giving the scene a lively, textured look. The artist didn’t smooth everything out—you can see where the paint was applied in chunks. If you like this cozy scene, check out the Museum of Ethnography to see more works like this.
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.
