About the Item
This 20th century oil painting of mare and two foals is set in an idyllic landscape with mature old tree, stone well and cottage in the background; by Robert Alexander, signed and dated indistinctly, possibly 1937/9. Fine work, in the style of animal portraiture in an earlier Scottish/British style.
Scottish artist Robert Alexander (1840-1923) had a son, Robert, who would have studied but did not pursue painting full time. A second son did become a professional painter. It is possible this is by the younger son Robert, as it is a fine painting but of a later period than the father. The elder Robert Alexander was known for his paintings of animals, primarily horses and dogs.
The mare stands with one of her foals, and the second foal lies beside the stone well. It is a picturesque and tranquil pastoral scene.
Presented in wooden gilt frame, oil paint on an older board, the painting is in overall excellent condition.
The frame shows wear and one small missing piece, but this does little to detract from the overall presentation. About 20" high and 24" wide in the frame, this is a good size for most rooms.
Charming work by a gifted artist. Ready to hang!

Sunset over the Swedish Bohuslän Coast
Located in Stockholm, SE
This painting by Anders Wahlgren, a Swedish painter, depicts a serene coastal landscape at sunset, likely set in the Bohuslän region of Sweden. The image is bathed in the warm, glowing hues of the setting sun, reflecting off the calm waters. A lone seagull perches on a rock in the bottom right corner, adding a subtle touch of life to the tranquil scene.
Anders Nils Henrik Wahlgren, born on February 15, 1861, in Lund, Sweden, was not only a skilled artist but also a forest science researcher. His artistic journey began early in his life, studying under the guidance of academic drawing master Axel Hjalmar Lindqvist in Lund. Later, during his time at the Forest Institute, he received artistic training from Anders Kallenberg. His travels for forestry studies led him to take a significant break in 1891, where he studied art in Brittany and Paris, particularly within a circle of Swedish painters and at a Scandinavian art school led by Richard Hall...

European Goldfinches, Taormina, By Swedish Artist Lindorm Liljefors
Located in Stockholm, SE
This exquisite painting by Lindorm Liljefors, the talented Swedish painter, draughtsman, and sculptor, is a testament to his profound connection with nature and his artistic lineage. Born on September 18, 1909, in Ytterjärna, Södermanland, and passing away on February 20, 1985, in Skyttorp, Uppsala County, Lindorm was the son of the renowned artist Bruno Liljefors. Educated at the Royal Swedish Academy of Arts in Stockholm from 1928 to 1934, under the tutelage of Alfred Bergström and Wilhelm Smith, he honed his skills before embarking on study trips to France and Italy in 1934.
Our painting "Goldfinches, Taormina" showcases a serene natural landscape, inspired by the picturesque scenery of Taormina, it captures the essence of Taormina's natural beauty, combining it with Liljefors' unique artistic perspective. The landscape is richly detailed with lush green grass, delicate flowers, and rugged stones. The focal point is two European goldfinches...
