More about this artwork

This painting, "Portrait of Artist Magnus Enckell" by Alfred William Finch from 1915, is an expressive depiction of the Finnish artist Magnus Enckell. The portrait showcases a side profile view of Enckell, highlighting his distinct facial features and a thoughtful expression. Enckell's head is slightly turned to the left, and he appears pensive or introspective.The artist’s use of color and stroke in this portrait is bold and vivid, with a rich impasto technique that adds texture and depth to the work. The background is a blend of various shades of yellow and green, which creates a vibrant contrast with the darker tones of Enckell's clothing and the muted colors used for his skin and hair. This choice of a warm, almost glowing background enhances the subject's contemplative mood.Alfred William Finch has effectively captured a moment of quiet reflection, possibly mirroring Enckell's own artistic temperament. The painting not only functions as a visual representation of Enckell but also conveys a sense of his inner life and personality through the emotive power of Finch’s brushwork and color choices. Through this artwork, Finch commemorates Enckell's contributions to art and perhaps their shared experiences within the art world.

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.
