Notes | The Facebook post of the museum had seemingly incorrect information, stating that the painting's not dated. The painting has "-16" written on it, and on the Instagram page of the museum they correctly state it to be from 1916. They also give a different name: Pontikankeittäjä rather than Pontikankeitto. Pontikankeittäjä means Moonshiner. I was also able to find a magazine covering the artist to also give the name as Pontikankeittäjä. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
