Poul Møller
Danish Mid Century Colourfield Landscape. Oil on Board.

1971

About the Item

Danish mid century Colourfield oil on board painting of a rural landscape by Poul Møller. The painting is initial signed and dated bottom right and there is a dated exhibition label to the back of the board. Presented in plain pitch pine frame. Provenance: Acquired directly from the artist atelier thence by descent. A very charming and colourful scene of a rural landscape. Møller has used his colour palette of greens, reds and ochres to great effect to bring the composition and the perspective to life. Almost abstract in their forms he has created the feeling of the trees, the fields, the distant buildings and the monumentality of the landscape without having to render too much detail. It is reminiscent of the early Colourfield landscapes of Nicolas de Staël. Poul Møller was a Danish artist with a focus on landscape paintings often in the same colour palette. He worked with simple, figurative compositions whose colour surfaces structure the motifs. Landscape paintings, layouts and figure pictures are often tightly composed. He was much influenced by his fellow Danish artists and contemporaries Immanuel Ibsen, Edvard Weie and Søren Hjort-Nielsen.. Much of their work developed from Expressionism in the early years and lead to the renewal of Danish landscape painting in the mid 20th Century.
