The Landlord Ii 1928

"The Landlord II" is a 1928 painting by Finnish artist Helene Schjerfbeck (1862-1946). The painting is a close-up portrait of a man's head, rendered in a muted palette of browns and greens. Schjerfbeck's characteristically simplified style is evident in the loose brushstrokes and the focus on capturing the essence of her subject. The painting is a powerful example of her later work, which often explored themes of isolation and existentialism.
