Description
English: This is the artist’s mother in a remarkable, enigmatic portrait. Intimate and monumental at the same time. On the one hand a spitting image, on the other a sculpture in a dreamlike landscape seemingly situated beyond time and space. The portrait is dated 1896, the year before Akseli Gallen-Kallela cast her as the main figure in one of his most famous paintings, Lemminkäinen’s Mother – a motif inspired by Finland’s national epic, Kalevala.
Svenska: Det här är konstnärens mor i ett märkligt, gåtfullt porträtt. Intimt och monumentalt på samma gång. Hon är å ena sidan porträttlik, men å den andra skulptural i ett drömskt landskap som tycks beläget bortom tid och rum. Porträttet är daterat 1896, året innan Akseli Gallen-Kallela lät henne uppträda som huvudperson i en av sina mest berömda målningar, Lemminkäinens moder – ett motiv ur Kalevala, Finlands nationalepos.
