Sven Grönvall is an unspecified by Ernst Krohn, held at Finnish National Gallery.
This painting shows a young man in a dark suit and light shirt. His face is plain but serious, with short hair and a slight smile. The brushstrokes are thick and uneven, giving the skin and clothes a rough, textured look. The artist’s name, *Krohn*, is signed in the top left corner. The painting feels unfinished, like the colors were applied quickly. Next, look up *impasto* to see how this thick paint technique works.
Ernst Krohn made quiet, intimate scenes and metalworks with a still, careful mood.
