More about this artwork

In Alfred William Finch's painting titled "Sailing Vessels, 1929," we witness a dynamic and somewhat abstract depiction of multiple sailing boats. The work utilizes a rather muted, earthy palette dominated by browns, whites, and touches of blue and yellow. The style is impressionistic, capturing the essence and movement of the scene rather than precise details.The sails of the vessels are rendered with broad, sweeping strokes, creating a sense of movement and fluidity as if the sails are billowing in the wind. There seems to be a rich interplay of light and shadow, suggesting either early morning or late afternoon, when the sun casts long reflections over the water. The water itself is depicted with fragmented reflections, with strokes of white and yellow suggesting the glistening of sunlight.The overall atmosphere is moody and evocative, with the rough texture of the paint enhancing the elemental feel of the scene. This painting, with its abstracted forms and vigorous brushwork, showcases Finch’s capacity to convey the lively interaction between nature and human endeavor, capturing not just a visual scene but also the sensations of sailing.

Alfred William Finch (1854-1930) was a Neo-Impressionist artist born to British parents in Brussels, Belgium. His works utilized the color palette and Pointillism technique, which were shared by other significant figures of the Neo-Impressionism movement, including Paul Signac, Camille Pissarro, and Georges Seurat. Finch was among the founding members of Les XX (Les Vingt), a group of twenty artists based in Brussels that challenged antiquated and conservative artistic traditions and academism. The group held annual art exhibitions, greatly influencing the development of Neo-Impressionism. In his later years, Alfred William Finch also produced ceramics and pottery, decorated with a fusion of his familiar Neo-Impressionism, Arts and Crafts, and Belgian Art Nouveau styles. His artworks primarily portray the atmospheric beauty of nature and the countryside along the Channel coast. Alfred William Finch spent the majority of his artistic career in Helsinki, where he passed away in 1930.
