About this work

This painting shows a group of people working together in a rugged landscape. They're dressed in simple, worn clothing and are using tools to clear the land. In the background, there's a fire burning, and the sky is filled with smoke. The scene is depicted in muted colors, with earthy tones dominating the palette. The brushstrokes are bold and expressive, giving the painting a sense of energy and movement. The painting is held at the Museum of Ethnography, and it's a great example of Eero Järnefelt's work.
