A brilliantly executed  mid century still life in oil, painted by the established artist Eric Cederberg.

Thick swirls of creamy paint form the background of the top half of the composition, and then below this we have a darker brown area with outlines in thick strokes that mimic the appearance of wood grain. Contrasted against this earthy palette are three bright and vivid pears, still connected to their branches and their ochre leaves. There is a beautiful balance to the horizontal composition, which Cederberg is known to be adept at achieving.

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 painting is housed in an absolutely gorgeous champagne frame with a wide profile. The painting has some scattered craquelure but is stable overall and is in good condition otherwise. The frame is in good vintage condition.

Size: 38 x 66 cm (including frame)
