About this work

Robert Wilhelm Ekman's 1866 painting Väinämöinen's Play shows a bearded, white-robed figure seated on a rock at the water's edge, playing a stringed instrument. Around him, nude water nymphs bathe among lilies beside a swan, while draped figures gather at the left and a radiant group of women appears beneath a rainbow in the sky.
