Parisian Street

SOLD.

A very well executed mid-century modernist oil painting that captures the essence of a serene Parisian cityscape, signed by the established Swedish artist Max Gregor Carlsson (1914-1996), whose works have been exhibited in public collections including the Malmö Museum, Eskilstuna Art Museum, Ystads Museum, Norrköping City Collection, the Landskrona Konsthall.

In the foreground, a graceful bridge spans across a tranquil river. The bridge guides our gaze to the background of the painting, which features rows of neatly arranged buildings and touches of greenery.

The painting has a rather structured feel –  brought forth through the use of geometric shapes to represent the architectural forms, as well as the orderly use of a limited and muted colour palette. Nevertheless, the use of visible and expressive brushstrokes balances the overall work and adds a touch of energy.

This oil on canvas is housed in a slim wood frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some wear in keeping with its age.

Size:  55.5 x 67 cm (including frame)
