1964 Vintage Mid-Century Modern Swedish Still Life Oil Painting - The Bouquet

1964

About the Item

THE BOUQUET Oil on Board Size: 51.5 x 68 cm (including frame) A very unique and vivid mid-century semi-abstract oil composition, painted on board and dated 1964 on the reverse. In this composition we see a vase of flowers which have been painted in a semi-abstract modernist style. The artist has intentionally chosen now to focus on the realistic forms of the florals, and has instead drawn attention to the shapes, colours and lines of the bouquet. Its formal elements are echoed in the background which appears to be the framework of a window, creating a really fun and striking picture. The bright colours contrast against the bold, black outlines and the starkly white vase. This brilliantly executed oil on board is housed in a wide profile wood frame with decorative carvings. The painting is in good vintage condition, and the frame has some minor scuffing as shown. Please note all of the artworks we sell are vintage and unless otherwise stated, their condition is typical for their age. This can sometimes include slight changes in colour, yellowing to the varnish, and minor bumps and bruises. We have tried to include as many close-up photos as possible. Should you need more photos or wish to ask us more questions regarding an item’s condition, feel free to contact us, we are always happy to help.

  • Still Life
    Located in Austin, TX
    By David Adickes 18.5" x 15" Oil on Board This modernist still life by Texas artist David Adickes features a grey and earth tone color palette with a vase and fruits. About the Artist: David Adickes is an esteemed American sculptor and artist, celebrated for his monumental public sculptures and artworks that pay homage to figures from American history and pop culture. Born in Huntsville, Texas, in 1927, Adickes has carved out an impressive career, leaving an indelible mark on the United States' public art scene over several decades. Adickes' artistic journey was significantly shaped by his time studying under the renowned French artist Fernand Léger in Paris. This mentorship enriched Adickes' perspective and technique, infusing his work with a blend of Léger's bold, structural compositions and his own unique vision. This influence is evident in the scale and formality of his sculptures, which combine a sense of monumentalism with a deeply personal touch. Among his most iconic works is the towering 67-foot statue of Sam Houston located in his hometown of Huntsville, which stands as one of the tallest statues of an American hero. Adickes is also famous for the "We Love Houston" sign and his series of giant busts of U.S. presidents, showcasing his ability to capture the essence of American identity in his art. Additionally, his creation of a park in Virginia that displayed these large presidential busts...
