Dominant colour
Interiööri, Koivuniemi is a 1913 unspecified by Venny Soldan-Brofeldt, held at Finnish National Gallery.
This painting shows a cozy room with light-colored walls and simple furniture. Two striped red-and-white chairs sit empty near a small table with a lamp and a few objects. A third chair is tucked under the table, and a cabinet with shelves stands in the background. The brushstrokes are loose, giving the scene a soft, unfinished look. The artist used quick, sketchy strokes to show light and shadow without sharp details. This makes the room feel warm but not perfectly real. Look up impasto next to see how thick paint can create texture like this.
Wendla Irene Soldan-Brofeldt, known as Venny (2 November 1863, Helsinki – 10 October 1945, Lohja) was a Finnish painter, illustrator, graphic artist, wood sculptor and jewelry designer.
