Johan Kindborg
Snowy Forest Road at Sunset – A Rare Nordic Winter Scene

1901

About the Item

Johan (John Kindborg) (1861-1907) Sweden Nordic Winter Twilight, 1901 oil on canvas signed and dated Kindborg 01. unframed: 48.5 x 33 cm (19 1/8 x 13 in) framed: 58 x 43 cm (22 7/8 x 16 7/8 in) Essay: This captivating winter landscape by Johan Kindborg (1861–1907) offers a rare and luminous depiction of a Swedish forest at dusk. Under a blanket of snow, the winding path draws the viewer into a serene world where tall pines frame a view toward a lake reflecting the last light of day. The sky, painted in delicate shades of pink, lilac, and deep violet, bathes the scene in a quiet, almost mystical glow. The mirrored sunset on the water glimmers in a spectrum of colors—from golden amber to dusky rose—rendering this moment both vibrant and hushed. Kindborg studied at the Royal Swedish Academy of Fine Arts and further honed his skills under the guidance of Edvard Perséus and Oscar Törnå. He traveled extensively in Europe, absorbing influences from Paris, London, Vienna, and Munich. Though best known for his atmospheric views of Stockholm and depictions of Sweden’s royal palaces, he also painted evocative scenes from the countryside. This work is a striking example of his ability to combine naturalistic detail with a poetic sense of light and atmosphere. Kindborg’s work is represented in the collections of the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, Norrköping Art Museum, and Kalmar Art Museum.
