More about this artwork

Alfred William Finch's oil on canvas, "Still Life (1923)", is a compelling exploration of everyday objects rendered with vivid attention to texture and color. This painting features an arrangement of a large earthenware jug, a smaller cylindrical container, and two deep-red apples that rest on a rustic wooden surface, partially draped with a rich, red fabric. A small glass with a dark, translucent liquid complements the composition, adding a touch of luminous contrast to the predominantly earthy tones.Finch, known for his contribution to the Neo-Impressionist movement, captures the simple grace of the still life with a palette that exudes warmth. The rough texture of the pottery, the smoothness of the apples, and the thick folds of the cloth showcase his skill in using light and shadow to imbue ordinary items with a sense of weight and volume.A masterful representation of tranquility and the subtle interplay of light, this work invites viewers to pause and appreciate the beauty in the mundane.

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.
