Finnish National Collection Digitised

Picture: Finnish National Gallery
Posted by Adam Busiakiewicz:
Just a quick note to say that the Finnish National Gallery have done a rather good job of their digitised online collections database. I came across it earlier whilst doing some research and was pleasantly surprised how easy it is to use. The images available are very zoomable too. There are lots of interesting pictures to be found within, absolute catnip to art lovers who enjoy scrolling through such things.
The above portrait caught my attention. This unidentified and unattributed portrait of a young girl reminds me of the work of the Nuremberg painter Lorenz Strauch. But, I may be misguided.
