About the Item

We are delighted to offer for sale this exquisite painting by the Swedish artist Otto Lindberg, titled "Bränningar vid Utö" (Breakers at Utö). Completed in 1928, this stunning piece measures 78 x 127 cm, including its elegant gold frame. The term "Bränningar" refers to the powerful waves or breakers that crash against coastal formations or shallow grounds, known as "breakers" or "surf" in English. Lindberg's depiction captures the dynamic and mesmerizing interaction between the sea and the rugged coastline. In this painting, Lindberg masterfully portrays the serene yet captivating seascape. The composition features the tumultuous sea breaking against the dark, rocky shoreline under a vibrant and moody sky. The subtle hues of green and blue dominate the sky and water, while the sunset casts a soft, warm glow across the horizon. In the distance, a solitary sailboat adds a sense of scale and tranquility to the otherwise dramatic scene. About the Artist: Otto Lindberg (1880-1955) was a renowned Swedish artist born in Söderhamn. Known for his landscapes and marine paintings, Lindberg studied at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Stockholm before furthering his education in Germany and Italy. His style is often described as post-impressionism, characterized by a personal touch and a keen focus on light and color. Lindberg's works frequently feature a vibrant and strong color palette, aiming to capture the essence and atmosphere of nature. His ability to convey the interplay of light and natural elements is evident in "Bränningar vid Utö," making it a prime example of his artistic prowess. This painting is a testament to Lindberg's talent and his love for the Swedish coastal landscape. It is a must-have for collectors and art enthusiasts who appreciate the beauty of nature rendered through a post-impressionist eye. oil on canvas signed and dated Otto Lindberg 1928 unframed 70 x 120 cm framed 78 x 127 cm
