About the piece
Painted in 1854 by Robert Wilhelm Ekman, this atmospheric oil study captures a scene from the Åland War near Turku. Foreground figures are silhouetted against a hazy sea where ships engage in combat, their masts partially obscured by the white smoke of cannon fire under an expansive, muted sky.
