Mid-Century Modern Swedish Figurative Oil Painting - Coastal Dock, Framed

1950s

About the Item

COASTAL DOCK Size: 45 x 49.5 cm (including frame) Oil on board A vibrant and expressive mid-century figurative painting, executed in oil onto board. The composition depicts a bustling coastal dock, with a stretch of boats resting in the water in the background. 5 figures are positioned in the foreground, each engaged in their own activity. The colours used in this painting are rich and saturated, bringing the composition to life with energy. The artist’s unrestricted and bold brushstrokes add a sense of spontaneity and movement, emphasising the lively atmosphere of the coastal setting, and the loose application of paint creates a characterful textured surface. This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame with an inner linen lining. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition. Please note all of the artworks we sell are vintage and unless otherwise stated, their condition is typical for their age. This can sometimes include slight changes in colour, yellowing to the varnish, and minor bumps and bruises. We have tried to include as many close-up photos as possible.

Vintage Mid-Century Modern Mini Swedish Figurative Portrait Painting - Whispers
Located in Bristol, GB
WHISPERS 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...
