Pear Harvest
SOLD
A compelling and characterful still life composition executed in oil on board and dated 1964, by the established Swedish artist Eric Cederberg (1897-1984), whose artworks have been represented in several public and museum collections across Sweden.
The composition features four pears clustered in an intimate arrangement, their irregular forms casting deep shadows on a softly textured tabletop. Rendered in thick, deliberate strokes, the pears exhibit a range of green and golden tones, highlighting the subtle variations in ripeness and light. The background is divided into muted blocks of beige and muted pink, adding a sense of modernist abstraction while allowing the forms to remain grounded and tangible.
The brushwork is notably expressive, with impasto applications lending a tactile, almost sculptural quality to the fruit and surface. Each pear is defined not by rigid outlines but by nuanced tonal shifts and textural contrasts, embodying the artist’s sensitivity to both form and mood. The overall effect is contemplative and earthy, inviting viewers to revel in the simple beauty of everyday objects,
This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame with an inner border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some minor scuffing but is in good condition overall.
Size: 33x 42cm (including frame)
