A brilliantly executed mid-century still life composition that contains elements of cubism and abstraction, painted in oil onto canvas and dated 1959.
The artist has deconstructed everyday objects—like pitchers, cups, and tables—into geometric shapes and overlapping planes, creating a layered, fragmented perspective that invites viewers to explore multiple dimensions simultaneously.
The colour palette is a blend of muted, earthy tones, such as olive green, mustard yellow, burnt orange, and dark teal, combined with accents of grey and black. These colours contribute to a warm yet restrained atmosphere. The shapes are outlined and juxtaposed with tonal shifts, which gives depth to the flat surfaces.
The brushstrokes are smooth and controlled, enhancing the sense of geometric clarity and maintaining the structured composition. This painting evokes a sense of stillness and balance, achieved through the careful arrangement of shapes and colours.
This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary slim wood frame frame. The painting has some scattered losses at its edges as shown, but is overall in good vintage condition otherwise.
Size: 57 x 70 cm (including frame)

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 central focus of the composition is a bold and vibrant selection of red pears, a yellow bowl, and a cluster of purple grape that have been thoughtfully arranged. They are set against a desert-like landscape with rocky mountains and under a crescent moon. The combinations of forms lends the painting a surreal, dreamlike quality.
The colour palette is vibrant yet balanced. The deep reds of the pears draws our attention, and the bold colours of the fruit and bowl stand out against the tan middle ground. Additionally, the black shadows and dark forms in the background provide depth and a sense of mystery.
The brushstrokes are smooth and meticulous, contributing to the tempera medium’s characteristic flatness and opacity. This technique lends the painting a polished, clean aesthetic.
This tempera on board is housed in a well-suited gilt frame with an inner linen border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has very minor wear along its left edge.
Size: 34 x 39 cm (including frame)

A brilliantly executed, large and characterful mid-century abstract nude figurative portrait composition, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1964.
The painting presents a seated female figure, rendered in expressive brushstrokes. Abstract in nature, the figure has been skilfully deconstructed into blocks of contrasting pastel shades, evoking a harmonious yet fragmented human form. Set against a backdrop of deep blues and greens with hints of earthy browns, the figure contrasts vividly with the surrounding darker tones.
By leaving areas of the canvas exposed, the artist’s creative use of negative space accentuates the form of the figure. drawing our attention to her distinct presence.
This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary gilt frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.
