Helsinki's Ateneum holds 1 work by Paul Cézanne (1839–1906) — the city's entire known holding of this artist in a single institution.
Cézanne is often described as the father of modern art, and his work reveals why in person: the patient, methodical deconstruction of form and space that Cubism would later take further. His paintings look deceptively simple in reproduction but are extraordinarily complex in the original — the colour relationships are everything.

Planning your visit to Helsinki
Helsinki's art institutions are compact and walkable — the Ateneum (national art museum) and Kiasma (contemporary art) are both near the central railway station. Entry is free for under-18s at most state museums. The Amos Rex with its striking underground galleries is also worth a visit.
