Iso Roobertinkatu 15 is a 1897 by Rudolf Åkerblom, held at Helsinki City Museum.
This sketch shows two small wooden buildings on a quiet street. One has a simple gabled roof with a chimney, and the other sits on stilts with a covered porch. The ground looks damp, and a fence runs along the left side. Trees and a pale sky fill the background. The artist used fine lines and shading to create texture, especially on the wood and clouds. The scene feels calm, almost like a winter’s day. Want to see more of this style? Check out cross-hatching.
