About the piece
Painted in 1888 by Finnish realist Eero Järnefelt, this work captures a quiet moment of everyday life on the lakes of the Savo region. A woman and two children are depicted in a traditional boat moored against a rocky shoreline, rendered with the soft, diffused northern light characteristic of the artist's naturalistic style.
