About the Item
We are honored to present for sale a captivating winter landscape painting by Anton Jonsson Genberg, completed in 1919. This piece is a pristine representation of Genberg's artistry, known for his naturalistic depiction of the Scandinavian wilderness.
The work features a peaceful open brook in the foreground, meticulously painted with intricate and elongated brushstrokes that reflect the calm flow of the water. Following the waterline, a stand of birches emerges, almost glowing with a delicate lilac hue in the painting's twilight. Above, the sky is painted in an impressionist style, with broad strokes of white, blue, and lilac, creating a harmonious blend that captures the fleeting light of a Nordic winter.
The subject of the painting likely draws from the natural surroundings of Storängen in Stockholm, where Genberg resided in 1919. This painting is not only a visual masterpiece but also a piece of history from the artist's own life and surroundings.
Anton Genberg (1862-1939) was a celebrated Swedish painter, born in Östersund and later settled in Storängen, Stockholm. His body of work mainly features the landscapes of northern Sweden, particularly the mountainous regions. Genberg's education at the Technical School in Stockholm and the Royal Swedish Academy of Fine Arts.
Throughout his career, Genberg's exhibitions spanned across Stockholm, Berlin, St. Louis, Buenos Aires, and Munich, among others, highlighting his international recognition. He was also a significant figure in Swedish art societies, serving as the vice-chairman of the Swedish Artists' Association and a member of the board for the General Art Association of Sweden.
The artist's personal journey is reflected in his art. Genberg lived in the national romantic Villa Wallbeck-Hansen in Storängen, a location that inspired many of his works until he moved to a villa designed by architect Per Benson in 1924.
This painting is a testament to Genberg's legacy, embodying the serenity and beauty of Swedish winter landscapes. It comes with a finely crafted new black frame, which further enhances the piece's elegance. It is a significant addition to any collection, not only as a work of art but also as a slice of the rich cultural tapestry of Sweden, preserved through Genberg's exceptional talent.
Anton Genberg's works are held in the collections of several prominent museums: Nationalmuseum Stockholm, Helsingborgs Museum, Gävle Museum, Jamtli Östersund, Nordiska Museet

Impressionistic Summer Landscape with Road Painted 1889
Located in Stockholm, SE
Carl Johansson's "Summer Landscape with Road" is an exquisite landscape that encapsulates the serene beauty of the Swedish countryside. Painted in 1889, the same year Johansson showcased his work at the Exposition Universelle in Paris, one can't help but wonder if this very painting was among those displayed at the fair.
"Summer Landscape with Road" offers a glimpse into the idyllic Swedish countryside through its masterful depiction. The scene is bathed in the distinctive light of the sun positioned at 30 degrees north-northwest, a unique aspect of Johansson's artworks. The viewer's eye is drawn along a winding dirt road that meanders through a tranquil pastoral landscape. Birch trees, with their white bark and tender green leaves, stand tall and sway gently, marking the passage toward a distant homestead nestled beside a calm lake. The rustic wooden fences and the clear sky, dotted with soft, billowing clouds, evoke a sense of peaceful solitude.
Johansson's meticulous attention to detail and colour is evident in every brushstroke, from the lush greenery to the soft, earthy path leading to the horizon. The artist's signature use of light not only highlights the natural beauty of the North but also enhances the sense of depth and realism in the painting.
Johansson's early works, such as this one, are exceedingly rare, making "Summer Landscape with Road" not only a visual delight but also a collector's gem. The painting's magnificent gold frame enhances the bright, vivid colours of the small-format artwork, creating an impactful presence.
Carl Johansson's blue impressionistic depictions of Northern Sweden earned him the nickname "Ultramarine Johansson", and his paintings are celebrated in prestigious collections, including the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, Kalmar Art Museum, and the municipality of Hudiksvall.
