Johan Gustaf Köhler painted formal portraits in 19th-century Finland. His brush captured details like lace cuffs and book spines that show a person’s rank and learning. In our app you’ll find his portrait of Salaneuvos Carl F. G. von Haartman, a top judge in Helsinki at the time. Tap his dark coat against the pale wall to see how Köhler lit his subject with quiet realism.
