Mid Century Modern Swedish Expressive Landscape Oil Painting - Coastal Road

1960s

About the Item

COASTAL ROAD Size: 47 x 70 cm (including frame) Oil on board A large mid-century modernist landscape painting that captures a serene coastal scene where a quiet road runs parallel to a shoreline, executed in oil onto board. The composition divides naturally into two sections: the vibrant blue of the sea on the left and the muted green of the grassy roadside on the right. In the foreground, a dry and sparse landscape is present, and a few scattered wooden planks rest on the ground. The distant horizon line reveals a subtle strip of land or an island against the vast expanse of sky. The artist has used a distinctly modernist approach, characterised by loose, gestural brushstrokes that emphasise texture and spontaneity. The composition has a balanced yet asymmetrical feel. The painting’s rough and textured brushwork brings a sense of immediacy and movement, as if capturing a fleeting moment. The palette is primarily composed of cool and earthy tones. The expressive brushstrokes wonderfully capture the windswept coastal atmosphere. This oil on board is housed in a very well-suited linen lined frame with an inner gilt and cream border. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition. Please note all of the artworks we sell are vintage and unless otherwise stated, their condition is typical for their age.
