Alfred Jürgens

Alfred Jürgens is an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Helsinki City Museum.

Alfred Jürgens drew late-19th-century Helsinki waterfront scenes in soft pencil and charcoal. In Kaivopuiston ranta ja Kalliolinna you can trace the granite cliffs and steamboats that lined the city’s southern edge. These drawings belong to a quiet corner of Nordic realism where the harbor’s light and architecture mattered more than dramatic gestures. Want to stand beside those same cliffs today? Look next at Helsinki’s Katajanokka shore.
