Two Seated Figures

SOLD.

An outstanding abstract figurative composition dated 1962 and executed in oil by the well-established Swedish artist Ivar Morsing (1919-2009), whose works have been exhibited in public collections including the National Museum in Stockholm, Moderna Museet in Stockholm, Kalmar Museum, and Jönköping Museum.

The composition is centered around 2 figures that are portrayed in an abstract manner. The figures are depicted in a seated position side by side, with their postures relaxed and comfortable.

The artist has used short and expressive brushstrokes to paint the figures, evoking a sense of movement and dynamism within the static setting. The dominant use of rich brown tones in various intensities creates a warm and earthy atmosphere, imbuing the artwork with a timeliness quality. The subtle variations in the brown hues and injections of white and black in contrasting colour blocks help to create depth and three-dimensionality.

This oil on board is housed in a well-suited silver frame with an inner linen lining. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has very light scuffing which does not detract from its overall attractiveness.

Size: 26 x 46 cm (including frame)
