A rare painting by the Finnish artist Pekka Halonen - in which Halonen has dared to radically contrast traditional conservative landscape painting - with a more modern bold style.
Emphasizing the enormous difference between conservatism that is flattered and modern freshness.
The same courage was once shown in fashion by Armi Ratia in Marimekko shirts, with the consequences of her success in the world.
It is worth asking - was the feeling of being squeezed by the more radical Halonen under the pressure of conservatism present in Pekka Halonen's art?
Or was the red fence a political expression on behalf of conservative village Finland.
In any case, that painting is an expression - not just a description of a sleepyhead.
