About the Item

Signed lower right, 'G. Bundgaard' for Gunnar Bundgaard (Danish, 1920-2005) and dated '57'. A light-filled, panoramic landscape showing Holstein cattle grazing in a grassy field beneath sun-lit clouds. This listed Danish painter first studied at Copenhagen's Gronvang School where he was particularly influenced by the romantic academic style of Niels Pederson Mols of the Royal Danish Academy. Bundgaard subsequently furthered his art studies in Sweden and, later, in France where his palette brightened and his brushwork became looser and more intuitive. Over the course of a long career, he exhibited widely and with success, becoming known through his still-lives and animal paintings and as a "naturalist... in possession of a pure color perception and undoubted skills as a portrait painter" (Vesttjysk Kunstgallerei).
