Ateneum: Collection of Prints

In 1995, Finnish graphic art celebrated its centenary; a hundred years had passed since Gallen-Kallela made his first woodcuts, and immediately donated Flower of Death to the Museum. The first acquisition of Finnish graphic art was made in 1900, when a group of 23 etchings was bought from Hugo Simberg, representing his best work from the period 1897-99. Gradually, works by other pioneers of Finnish graphic art were also acquired: 13 prints by Gallen-Kallela in 1903, 25 prints by Edelfelt in 1904, another seven prints by Gallen-Kallela in 1905, and seven prints by Finch the following year. During the 1910s and '20s, the collection grew very slowly, however. Graphic art did not experience a breakthrough in Finland until the 1930s. From the 1950s, Finnish graphics have accounted for a considerable part of the Museum's annual acquisitions.
