Two Green Pears

SOLD

A characterful and wonderfully textured mid-century still life in oil, painted by the established Swedish artist Eric Cederberg (1897-1984), whose artworks have been represented in several public and museum collections across Sweden.

In this excellent composition that invites viewers to revel in the simple beauty of everyday objects, 2 pears in a white bowl, a pitcher under a patterned placemat, and a butterknife are thoughtfully laid out across a wooden surface, and against an abstracted background.

Working with a rich and earthy colour palette, the artist has skilfully captured the three-dimensional qualities of the objects and the intricate grain of the wood, whilst simultaneously emphasising the two-dimensional flatness of the board. The expressive and textured brushstrokes further enriches the visual experience of the piece.

This oil on board is housed in an attractive frame with multiple borders including  a linen-lined border. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

Size: 48.5 x 56.5 cm (including frame)
