1946 Mid-Century Modern ‘Rural Tranquility’ Vintage Swedish Expressive Landscape Oil Painting, Framed

RURAL TRANQUILITY
Size: 23.8 x 28.3 inches (including frame)
Oil on board
A tranquil mid-century landscape composition, executed in oil onto board and dated 1946.
The painting captures a serene rural landscape with a country road leading through a cluster of houses nestled among lush trees and rolling fields. The composition guides the viewer’s eye through the pastoral scene, with distant farmsteads adding depth to the background.
The artist has used a loose, expressive style with thick, textured brushstrokes that emphasise movement and atmosphere. The colour palette consists of earthy greens, warm yellows, and muted browns, complemented by pops of red in the rooftops, which provide contrast and visual interest. The brushwork is gestural and expressive, lending the painting a tactile, dynamic quality.
This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame with an inner black window. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has scuffing present.
