GOLDEN AGE, THE FINNISH ART 1850-1907.

Finland 1992. The Golden Age tells the story of 40 Finnish painters and sculptors, their travels to classical Rome and studies in Berlin and Paris and their return home to the land of dense forests and unending lakes, which in their hearts they had never left.
