This presentation aims to focus on the art, lives and networks of the women artists at the Önningeby Artists’ colony and the Tuusulanjärvi Artists’ community, both located in Finland, at the end of the 19th century and in the beginning of 20th century.
Welcome to a fascinating journey into the 19th and 20th century world of powerful (more powerful that you ever thought) Finnish woman artists!
