Mid-Century Modern Swedish Semi-Abstract Oil Painting - Gathered by the Piano

1950s

About the Item

GATHERED BY THE PIANO Size: 32 x 41 cm (including frame) Oil on board An intimate and lively mid-century semi-abstract composition that captures a dynamic group scene, painted in oil onto board. The scene appears to depict a lively social gathering centred around music, with a man playing the piano on the right side of the composition and with a group of people behind him dancing around. The artist has used minimal details on the figures, which have been simplified into abstract forms, focusing on colour and brushstrokes over realistic details. The colour palette comprises of muted soft tones with hints of black. The brushstrokes are loose, gestural and expressive – adding to the sense of spontaneity. This encourages viewers to feel the energy of the scene rather than focus on precise details. This oil on board is housed in a wood frame with an inner cream border. 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.
