1922
unspecified
From the collection of Finnish National Gallery
Oopperassa is a 1922 unspecified by Väinö Kunnas, held at Finnish National Gallery.
A man in a black suit and white bow tie sits at a small table in a dim room. His bald head glows slightly under the light. Behind him, three empty chairs lean against a pale green wall. The chairs are simple, with straight backs and red seats. The table holds a white napkin and a folded cloth. The painting uses bold, flat colors and simple shapes. The man’s face is smooth, almost like a mask. The chairs look stacked carelessly, as if someone just left. Look up chiaroscuro next to see how light and shadow create drama in paintings.
Väinö Ilmari Kunnas (12 April 1896 in Vyborg – 10 February 1929 in Helsinki) was a Finnish Expressionist painter.
