From the collection of Finnish National Gallery
Dominant colour
Järvimaisema is an unspecified by Akseli Gallen-Kallela, held at Finnish National Gallery.
This painting shows a calm lake with a small, dark island in the middle. The sky is wide and soft, with light blue and pink clouds. In the foreground, bare trees stand on the shore, their branches reaching into the water. The whole scene feels quiet and still. The brushstrokes are thick in some spots, especially in the sky, giving it a textured look. The light reflects off the water, making it shimmer slightly. If you like this style, look up impasto.
Akseli Gallen-Kallela (born Axel Waldemar Gallén; 26 April 1865 – 7 March 1931) was a Finnish painter and a leading figure of Finnish romantic nationalism around the turn of the 20th century.
