unspecified
From the collection of Finnish National Gallery
Istuva poika is an unspecified by Verner Thomé, depicting Boy, held at Finnish National Gallery.
The painting shows a boy sitting down. He's looking straight ahead. The boy seems calm, and the background is simple, which makes him stand out. This makes you focus on his face and clothes. The artist used oil on cardboard to create this work. I don't know much about the artist's life or other works. The cardboard base is an interesting choice, as it's not a typical material for paintings. You can learn more about the technique used in this painting by looking into oil on cardboard and comparing it to the technique of impasto.
Verner Thomé (4 July 1878 – 1 June 1953) was a Finnish Post-Impressionist graphic artist. He was influenced by Vitalism a German-Scandinavian movement that incorporated Nietzsche's philosophy.
