About the piece
Painted in 1910 by Finnish artist Jalmari Ruokokoski, this oil portrait titled 'Love' exemplifies the bold energy of early 20th-century expressionism. The luminous treatment of the sitter's face and upward gaze contrast dramatically with the deep, textured blues and dark, sweeping brushwork, creating a piece that is both emotionally resonant and visually commanding.
