More about this artwork

This artwork by Alfred William Finch, titled "Henkilöharjoitelmia" (meaning "Person Exercises" or "Figure Studies" in Finnish), showcases a series of sketchy, lively figure studies. It appears to capture various everyday scenes and movements of people, using what seems to be charcoal or a similarly soft medium that lends a sense of immediacy and fluidity to the sketches.The drawing is divided into a collection of vignettes. At the top-left, there’s a figure riding a bicycle, portrayed dynamically with the motion suggested by the circular depiction of the wheels. Next to this, there are vertical drawings of individuals walking, each in different postures, which suggest movement and a brief snapshot of urban life.Below these, there is a focus on two people: one appears to be bending or reaching out, perhaps in an act of picking something up or gesturing, while the other features side profiles of individuals possibly engaged in conversation or walking together. These scenes are more intimate than the first set, capturing personal or quiet moments amidst the bustle.At the bottom of the paper, separate from the other figures, there is a small detail drawing that looks like a waterside scene with a boat.

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.
