Francesca is a 1899 tempera by Väinö Blomstedt, a Post-Impressionism work, held at Finnish National Gallery.
This painting features a woman with long, reddish-brown hair, adorned with a string of pearls that wraps around her head. She is dressed in a dark top layered under a brown robe and holds a white flower up to her nose. The background is a serene landscape with trees, a body of water, and a distant building, all set against a blue sky with clouds. The woman's gaze is directed downward, and her posture suggests a contemplative mood. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of quiet reflection.
