More about this artwork

This remarkable sketch from 1912 by Magnus Enckell portrays Rouva Anni Lagerborg, capturing the essence of an era with exceptional grace and artistic touch. Enckell, known for his contributions to Finnish symbolism, employs his skilful use of color and form to bring out the character and mood of his subject.In the painting, Rouva Anni Lagerborg is elegantly attired in what appears to be a large, flowing hat adorned with swirls, perhaps indicative of the fashion of the time. Her garment, loosely draped and softly outlined, suggests movement and a casual posture. Enckell uses subtle colors, primarily shades of blue and gray, which lend a dreamy and ethereal quality to the sketch.The background remains minimalist, directing all focus onto Lagerborg herself. Her facial expression, rendered with only a few concise strokes, communicates a gentle serenity and perhaps a hint of introspective thought. Enckell's style combines both precision and a gentle abstraction, allowing viewers to sense both the personality and the temporal distance of the subject.This portrait not only offers a glimpse into the artistic techniques of the early 20th century but also serves as a reflection of societal norms and fashion of that period.

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.
