Savolaisvene järvellä is an unspecified by Ferdinand von Wright, held at Finnish National Gallery.
A lone fisherman sits in a small wooden boat on choppy water, gripping the oars. Behind him, a shoreline of tall pine trees lines a sandy beach. The sky is a mix of soft clouds and pale light, while waves crash around the boat. The tiny shack on the shore looks like a simple shelter, maybe for storing gear. The artist painted the water’s movement with quick, rough brushstrokes to show its energy. Look up Wright, Ferdinand von to see more of his work.
