About the Item
A beautifully painted branch with green and reddish apples by Otto Strandman (1871-1960). Signed with monogram 'OS' and dated '7 SEPT. 1895'. Watercolor and gouache on paper.
Otto Strandman received his education at the The College of Design and Crafts school in Gothenburg and the Royal Art Academy in Stockholm 1891–1895, and then in Germany, Italy and Paris in 1899. He won the King's Medal in 1895. In 1907 he worked as an extra teacher at the Royal Technical University in Stockholm and in 1915 he became a member of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts.
Mostly he became known as a skilled sculptor. He created reliefs, as well as many small sculptures and art-industrial objects such as electric lamps, hand mirrors, goblets and jewelry in precious metals. He has also painted in oil and watercolor, portraits, animal studies, landscapes and floral still lifes. With the knowledge as a sculptor, he could give that extra dimension to a subject on painted surface as in the present watercolor of a branch with apples.
In 1914, he exhibited all his sculptures, paintings and drawings in Stockholm. His bust of Gustav II Adolf in Umeå was unveiled by Crown Prince Gustaf Adolf in 1924.
Strandman is represented in several museums, including Trelleborg Museum, Norrköping Art Museum and Västerås Art Museum, as well as in the Royal Library and the National Museum in Stockholm.
Popular Christian tradition holds that Adam and Eve ate an apple from the forbidden tree in the Garden of Eden. As a result, the apple became a symbol for knowledge, immortality, temptation, love, beauty, the fall of man and sin.

- Christian Berg, Pair of Goosander Birds On Ice Floes.Located in Stockholm, SEA female and male Goosander bird on ice floes. In the center of the painting there is a smaller opening in the ice covered waters. This painting, by Christian Berg (1893-1976) is quite interesting and unusual for his works. It is signed "Ch. Berg" and dated 1918. Berg is mostly famous for his sculptures which was to become his signum works later in his life. He is known primarily for his abstract artworks. He was educated at the Technical School and Althin's painting school in Stockholm 1911–1914. In the years 1914–1917 he studied at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts and started with animal painting in the spirit of Bruno Liljefors. Our painting is from this period just after he finished his studies at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts. In 1921, he studied in Berlin and Dresden which was followed by a trip to Egypt in 1925. In the same year he moved to Paris and had a studio on rue Guénégaud. He studied with André Lhote and his interest in cubism was awakened.
