Näkymä Katajanokalta n:o 5 is a 1897 by Rudolf Åkerblom, held at Helsinki City Museum.
This drawing shows two small wooden houses with grass roofs on a grassy hill. One house has a ladder leading up to a door, and a person stands inside. The sky above is light with soft clouds, and a simple fence runs along the hillside. The artist used pencil or charcoal to create texture, especially on the roofs and walls. The scene looks quiet and simple, like a snapshot of everyday life. Look up cross-hatching to see how artists build shadows with lines.
Rudolf Åkerblom (1849–1925) was an artist, born in Helsinki.
