The collections of the Museum of Finnish Art Ateneum showcase the development of Finnish Art all the way from 18th century rococo portraiture to the experimental art movements of the present century. Portraits and hunting scenes of the Romantic Period, landscapes by artists of the Düsseldorf School, turn-of-the-century Parisian influences, the beginnings of realism, symbolism and the loftiest exemplars of the Golden Era lead us into the beginning of our century which witnessed an expansion in the range of artistic expression. International influences are reflected in Finnish expressionism, impressionism, cubism and surrealism. The collections extend all the way to 1960.
