Georg Stoopendaal
Coastal Landscape with Dramatic Clouds

c. 1920

About the Item

We are pleased to offer a captivating small oil painting by the Swedish artist Georg Stoopendaal. Despite its modest dimensions of 14 x 18.5 cm, this piece exudes a powerful presence. This evocative landscape painting features a dramatic cloudscape over a coastal scene. The brushwork captures the dynamic atmosphere, with rich, textured strokes bringing the sky and land to life. The interplay of colors and the intensity of the clouds create a striking contrast, conveying the raw beauty of nature. The artist: Georg Stoopendaal was born on December 13, 1866, in Jönköping and passed away on January 27, 1953, in Björketorp Parish, Älvsborg County. An autodidact, Stoopendaal did not receive formal artistic training but developed his craft independently. He is renowned for his landscape paintings from Bohuslän and still lifes. His works are held in high regard and are part of the collections at the National Museum and the Gothenburg Museum of Art. The Stoopendaal family has a rich artistic heritage. Georg and his wife Anna, also a painter, moved to Hindås in 1921 and were active there for many years. Their son Wilhelm, known as "Mosse," followed in his father's footsteps, becoming a celebrated nature painter. The family also includes notable artists like Jenny Nyström, married to Georg's brother Daniel, and Ferdinand Stoopendaal, Georg's other brother. Georg Stoopendaal's paintings of working horses are particularly sought after. Additionally, he was a skilled illustrator, contributing to several books and documenting American indigenous peoples during his time in the United States. This painting, with its vivid depiction of a coastal landscape and dramatic skies, is a testament to Stoopendaal's talent and his ability to capture the essence of nature in his work. oil on canvas laid on board authenticated on the back by Sixten Strömbom unframed 14 x 18.5 cm (5.5 x 7.3 inches) framed 26 x 31 cm (10.2 x 12.2 inches)
