Oil on board
A brilliantly executed and beautifully textured abstract figurative oil composition, painted in 1965 by the established Swedish artist Ivar Morsing (1919-2009), whose works have been exhibited in public collections including the National Museum in Stockholm, Moderna Museet in Stockholm, Kalmar Museum, and Jönköping Museum.
A group of figures huddled closely together punctuate the center of the composition. The figures, though abstracted, exude a palpable sense of movement and togetherness. Their elongated shapes seem to sway and intertwine, conveying a collective rhythm that guides their steps.
The painting is characterised by textured and expressive brushstrokes, as well as the use of an intentionally limited yet rich colour palette. Warm and fiery shades of orange, and yellow, as well as dark brown dominate the painting. The colours of the background thoughtfully echos the hues of the figures, blurring the lines between the subjects and their environment. This intentional colour integration unifies the painting and reinforces the theme of interconnectedness.
This oil on board is housed in a complementary silver frame with an inner linen border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some wear as shown, and the linen border has some age toning present but this does not detract from its overall attractiveness.

- Vintage Mid-Century Modern Mini Swedish Figurative Portrait Painting - WhispersLocated in Bristol, GBWHISPERS Mixed Media on Board Size: 30 x 37 cm (including frame) A wonderfully expressive and brilliantly executed figurative composition in mixed media (oil, watercolour gouache), painted onto board. Two women in black headscarves are the focus of the scene, with very captivating expressions. The woman on the right appears to look almost shocked, with her mouth ajar and her eyes widened. The woman on the left stares directly at us, her emotion less identifiable. The scene is intriguing, making us question what these women have heard or what has happened. Their faces have been painted with brilliant detail, capturing the shadows on their faces as well as the aged skin of the woman on the right. These two women are set against a blue-ish green backdrop, making their faces stand out even more from within their black head scarves...Category
