Virttä veisaava mies is an unspecified by Arvid Liljelund, held at Finnish National Gallery.
This painting shows a man in a dark coat holding an open book. His face is serious, with a slight frown and tired eyes. The background is plain and blurry, keeping focus on him and the book. The brushstrokes are thick in some spots, especially on his face and hands, giving it a textured look. The lighting makes his face stand out against the dimmer background. This technique is called impasto.
Arvid Liljelund (1844–1899) was an artist, born in Uusikaupunki.
