| Description |
English: View from North Quay, Oil painting. The viewpoint of the painting is from Meritullinkatu (then known as Konstantinkatu), Finland, looking out to Korkeasaari, visible behind Tervasaari. Tervasaari (Tar Island) is so called because it was used as a location for storing export tar in the mid 1600s. Korkeasaari zoo was founded in 1888, a little before this painting was completed.
Svenska: Vy från Norra kajen. Oljemålning. Målningen har gjorts från Sjötullsgatan, dåvarande Konstantingatan, mot Högholmen som syns bakom Tjärholmen. Tjärholmen fick sitt namn av att den från mitten av 1600-talet användes som förvaringsplats för exporttjära. En djurpark anlades på Högholmen 1888, lite före målningen kom till.
Suomi: Näkymä Pohjoisrannasta. Öljymaalaus. Maalaus on tehty Meritullinkadulta, silloiselta Konstantininkadulta, kohti Tervasaaren takana näkyvää Korkeasaarta. Tervasaari oli saanut nimensä siitä, että se oli 1600-luvun puolivälissä varattu vientitervan säilytyspaikaksi. Korkeasaareen oli perustettu eläintarha 1888, hiukan ennen maalauksen syntyä. |
