SwissArtGallery · Documented identity
Amélie Lundahl, born in Oulu in 1850 and deceased in Helsinki in 1914, trained in Finland and then in Stockholm. A scholarship enabled her to travel to Paris in 1877 with Maria Wiik. She studied at the Académie Julian and participated in artistic exchanges between Finland and France.
Her stays in Brittany nurtured a painting attentive to local people, landscape and natural light. The Garden Girl, an oil on canvas of 1885 held by the Ateneum, reflects this naturalist direction; it was exhibited at the Paris Salon. From the late 1880s Lundahl moved between Helsinki, Stockholm, Visby and the artists’ colony of Önningeby in the Åland Islands. This itinerary helped bring to Finland the practices of outdoor painting developed during her years in France.
