Cygnaeuksen Galleria (Cygnaeus Gallery) Review

This diminutive gallery, in a cottage with a tower overlooking the harbor, is the perfect setting for works by various Finnish painters, sculptors, and folk artists. This was once the summer home of Fredrik Cygnaeus (1807-1881), a poet and historian who generously left his cottage and all the art inside to the Finnish public.
