More about this artwork

This painting by Alfred William Finch, titled "Still Life, 1925," depicts a classic still life composition featuring objects on a table which suggest a setting for a simple, domestic meal or tea time. The dark brown backdrop contrasts with the brightness of the objects in the foreground, giving the scene a warm, inviting ambiance characteristic of many still life canvases.In the foreground, there is a carefully arranged assortment of objects. They include a shiny, bulbous copper teapot with an elongated spout and a large handle, suggesting perhaps its use in a cozy domestic space. Accompanying the teapot is a porcelain cup and saucer, modestly decorated with a simple pattern that echoes the teapot’s simple yet functional elegance.Beside the cup and saucer, there’s a small sugar bowl with a lid, adorned similarly to the cup and matching it in style, reinforcing the theme of domesticity. A wholesome loaf of bread and a small knife beside it suggest readiness for a meal. The loaf, with its crusty exterior, contrasts texturally and visually with the smoothness of the other items.The arrangement is set upon a tabletop covered with a checkered cloth, introducing a geometric pattern that contrasts with the otherwise rounded shapes of the pottery and bread.

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.
