More about this artwork

We are proud to feature "Selin seisova alaston mies, luonnos" (1908-1909) by the celebrated Finnish painter, Magnus Enckell, on our website. This delicate watercolor and pencil sketch portrays a standing male nude, an exemplar of Enckell's profound skill in capturing human form and emotion. The artwork displays a graceful figure shown from behind, with the model’s head turned to the side, suggesting a moment of introspection or pause.Enckell's use of muted red and blue hues adds a softness and depth to the figure, emphasizing the play of light and shadow across the body’s contours. The sketch, while seemingly simple, conveys a strong sense of movement and naturalism, characteristic of Enckell's artistic approach during this period. This artwork is a stunning example of Enckell's modernist tendencies and his mastery in portraying the beauty of the human figure. It reflects the artist’s fascination with neoclassicism and his ability to interpret traditional subjects through a contemporary lens."Selin seisova alaston mies, luonnos" is not just a study of the human body, but a testament to Enckell's ability to evoke emotion through minimalistic yet powerful strokes.

Magnus Enckell (1870-1925) was a Finnish painter and graphic artist who was born in Helsinki. He studied at the Ateneum School of Art and later at the Académie Julian in Paris. Enckell was greatly influenced by the Symbolist and Art Nouveau movements, and his work often featured moody and dreamlike landscapes and portraits. He was one of the leading figures of Finnish art in the early 20th century, and his work helped to shape the development of modernist art in Finland. He passed away in 1925 at the age of 55, leaving behind a legacy that continues to inspire artists to this day.
