Valmistelu kirkkomatkalle is an unspecified by Arvid Liljelund, held at Finnish National Gallery.
This painting depicts an elderly couple in a dimly lit room, with the woman standing and the man seated. The woman is dressed in a long, light-colored dress and headscarf, while the man wears dark clothing. The room's interior is visible, with a table and other objects in the background. The scene appears to be a quiet, intimate moment between the two individuals. The woman's gesture suggests she may be helping the man with his clothing or preparing him for a journey. The use of chiaroscuro in this painting creates a sense of depth and volume, drawing the viewer's attention to the central figures.
