About the piece
Painted around 1910 by Yrjö Ollila, this coastal scene captures the quiet beauty of the Gulf of Finland. The work is characterized by its luminous, airy palette of soft ochre and pale rose, using impressionistic brushwork to convey the rhythmic movement of water against the rocky northern shore.
