More about this artwork

Our latest exhibit features the evocative sketch "Girl Straightening Her Hair" by Pekka Halonen, a renowned Finnish painter known for his delicate portrayal of people and nature. Created in 1909, this piece illuminates Halonen's mastery in capturing human emotion and form with minimal yet impactful strokes.The artwork depicts a young woman in a moment of quiet solitude, her gaze lowered as she gently straightens her hair. The pose and the intimate setting suggest a serene, introspective mood. Halonen’s use of soft pencil lines adds a tenderness to the image, highlighting the natural beauty and vulnerability of the subject without the need for elaborate detail.This drawing not only showcases Halonen's skill in figure drawing but also reflects the thematic focus of Finnish art in the early 20th century on personal and natural themes.
