About the Item
This exquisite painting by Lindorm Liljefors, the talented Swedish painter, draughtsman, and sculptor, is a testament to his profound connection with nature and his artistic lineage. Born on September 18, 1909, in Ytterjärna, Södermanland, and passing away on February 20, 1985, in Skyttorp, Uppsala County, Lindorm was the son of the renowned artist Bruno Liljefors. Educated at the Royal Swedish Academy of Arts in Stockholm from 1928 to 1934, under the tutelage of Alfred Bergström and Wilhelm Smith, he honed his skills before embarking on study trips to France and Italy in 1934.
Our painting "Goldfinches, Taormina" showcases a serene natural landscape, inspired by the picturesque scenery of Taormina, it captures the essence of Taormina's natural beauty, combining it with Liljefors' unique artistic perspective. The landscape is richly detailed with lush green grass, delicate flowers, and rugged stones. The focal point is two European goldfinches (Steglits): one gracefully perched on the ground and the other captured in mid-flight, adding a dynamic element to the tranquil scene. This portrayal not only highlights Liljefors' skill in rendering natural beauty but also reflects his personal love for the outdoors, a theme consistent throughout his career.
Lindorm Liljefors followed in his father's footsteps, both in his choice of motifs and his perspective on nature. His oeuvre includes a variety of nature scenes, such as hunters with dogs, crows on ice, badger families, ducks near openings in the ice, and forest interiors. As a sculptor, he focused on depicting humans and animals in motion. His passion for hunting and dogs, coupled with his contributions to the magazine "Svensk Jakt," further underscored his deep engagement with the natural world.

View AllSunset over the Swedish Bohuslän Coast
Located in Stockholm, SE
This painting by Anders Wahlgren, a Swedish painter, depicts a serene coastal landscape at sunset, likely set in the Bohuslän region of Sweden. The image is bathed in the warm, glowing hues of the setting sun, reflecting off the calm waters. A lone seagull perches on a rock in the bottom right corner, adding a subtle touch of life to the tranquil scene.
Anders Nils Henrik Wahlgren, born on February 15, 1861, in Lund, Sweden, was not only a skilled artist but also a forest science researcher. His artistic journey began early in his life, studying under the guidance of academic drawing master Axel Hjalmar Lindqvist in Lund. Later, during his time at the Forest Institute, he received artistic training from Anders Kallenberg. His travels for forestry studies led him to take a significant break in 1891, where he studied art in Brittany and Paris, particularly within a circle of Swedish painters and at a Scandinavian art school led by Richard Hall...
