Annankatu 12 - Uudenmaankatu 17, Leschen talo is a 1897 by Rudolf Åkerblom, held at Helsinki City Museum.
This drawing shows a quiet street corner with a large wooden building in the center. The building has a simple, sturdy look with dark brown planks and small windows. A cobblestone road runs in front, and a tall streetlamp stands nearby, casting a shadow. Trees and other smaller buildings line the background, with a pale sky above. Notice how the artist used fine lines to create shadows and texture, especially on the building’s walls. The streetlamp and trees add depth to the scene, making it feel like a real place.
