After looking at the exhibited paintings on the 1st floor, the distinct lighthouse was nowhere in sight and there were paintings of wooden houses Strange, because the island Ivanovski didn’t have a house on it. After talking to the attendant, i found out that Island Ivanovski was not the island that I thought it was. The artist last name is Ivanovski. So Island Ivanovski was just his little fantasy. A huge disappointment for me
The 2nd floor, however offered exhibits that were more interesting with a section on Karelian weddings. There was a fascinating video on Karelian marriages and the importance of hand sewn towels in the marriages. So it wasn’t a wasted trip after all!
