Neva-virralla is an unspecified by Dimitri A. Schtjerbinoffskij, held at Finnish National Gallery.
This painting shows a small harbor with two boats tied up to a wooden dock. One boat is a bigger, dark vessel with a smokestack, while the other is a smaller, weathered rowboat. The water is choppy, and the sky is hazy in the background. The brushstrokes are thick and rough, giving the scene a gritty, unfinished look. The colors are mostly muted blues, grays, and browns, with a few pops of red and black. Check out the technique: impasto for more on how thick paint layers create texture.
This painter worked in Finland during the early 1900s and made scenes of the Neva River’s northern edge.
