They were great role models and renowned artists who served the orientation of the Finnish painter Ilmari Aalto. He was an expressionist. Still discreetly recognizable in his early still lifes, later landscapes show a distinct brushstroke, pastose colors and a lively style of painting. Cézanne was one of his role models and his name was made to the Finn with landscapes in the style of the painting style of the French painter. "The autumn landscape with clouds" shows the preference for earthy colors, which are always a bit dark. The viewer feels the wind, it seems to rain and the clouds dominate the barren landscape. The house looks far away and could be in many places. Is it loneliness in Finland or the vastness of Tuscany? Is the scene real or an expression of the artist? A touch of sadness runs through the work of the artist. If the viewer dares to compare with the clouds of his painting by Van Gogh, they are almost in a merry dance.
