1951 Mid-Century Modern "Nature Rocks" Swedish Vintage Expressionist Landscape Oil Painting, Framed

A calm and well-executed modernist style landscape composition executed in oil in 1951, and painted by the established swedish artist eric cederberg (1897-1984). Presenting a natural landscape of an open valley with rock formation and rolling hills, the artist has used a rich and bold colour palette comprising both dark and light shades to execute this panoramic view, and has skilfully managed to capture the stillness and vastness of nature. Wonderfully lightly textured and painterly brushstrokes fill the canvas, and the contrasting colours create depth and a sense of space within the painting. Cederberg was a swedish artist who made his debut on the art world in helsingborg in 1922. Later he participated in the skåne art association exhibition in 1926 and the swedish public art society exhibition in stockholm in 1941. He is represented in several public collections in sweden. This oil on board is housed in its original mid century wood frame with an inner gilt and cream window. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some very minor scuffing. Size: 41 X 47.5 cm (including frame).
