About the Item
LEMON & PEARS
Size: 34 x 39 cm (including frame)
Tempera on board
A brilliantly executed and characterful surrealist still life composition, executed in tempera on board and dated 1980, by the established Swedish artist Eric Cederberg (1897-1984), whose artworks have been represented in several public and museum collections across Sweden.
The artwork captures an arrangement of bright yellow lemons and rich purple grapes resting in a blue bowl, complemented by green pears placed on a deep red tabletop. A brown pitcher stands in the background, along with patterned wallpaper and a blue wall, adding depth and contrast to the scene.
Inviting viewers to revel in the simple beauty of everyday objects, the artist masterfully captures the essence of realism through his meticulous brushwork and keen attention to detail, as well as by simplifying the objects into bold, flat shapes.
The colour palette is rich, and the brushstrokes are precise, smooth and clean – emphasising the flatness of the shapes and focusing on clarity and boldness rather than texture or intricate detail.
This tempera on board is housed in a well-suited gilt frame and and inner linen border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. There is scuffing to corners and edges of the frame, as shown in the close ups.
Please note all of the artworks we sell are vintage and unless otherwise stated, their condition is typical for their age.

Eric Cederberg
Eric Cederberg represents a subtle but no less significant strand of Nordic Surrealism. Working in the postwar period, he developed a Surrealist approach influenced by Magritte— calm, lucid, and rich in visual paradox. His paintings reveal a poetic logic at once restrained and unsettling, emblematic of a “smooth Surrealism” unique to the North. Though he worked outside formal Surrealist circles, his contribution demonstrates how deeply Surrealist thought penetrated Nordic art by the mid-20th century, reshaping everyday scenes into sites of symbolic transformation. - Biography by Nagas, New York
