Eero Järnefelt

Eero Erik Nikolai Järnefelt (1863 - 1937) was a Finnish realist painter.

Eero Järnefelt was born in Viipuri, Finland. His father Alexander Järnefelt was an officer in the Russian army and his mother was Elisabeth Clodt von Jürgensburg. He studied at the St. Petersburg art academy between 1883 and 1885, the same one Albert Edelfelt had studied at.

He went to study in Paris in 1886 where he became friends with Akseli Gallen-Kallela, Emil Wikström and Louis Sparre. He was inspired by the plein-air and naturalistic paintings by Jules Bastien-Lepage.


 

 

The paintings are the excellent portrayal of the events and scenes that we see around us. The painters are the best cameras of the world. They reproduce many different types of pictures. They even draw imaginary pictures that do not exist in this world. We tend to use both thinned oil paints and dense oil paints. Masterpieces can be dyed more than once, but each time it may be different from the existing paintings.h
