Size: 45.5 x 41 cm (including frame)
Oil on Board
A brilliantly executed semi-abstract oil composition painted in by the 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.
Here we have a semi abstract composition of a man seated on a bench. Morsing has used a restrained palette- focusing mainly on blue, green, yellow, and black. He has juxtaposed the lighter colours against the darker colours in order to create depth and perspective within the composition. Realistic details have been intentionally left out, but we get a palpable sense that the figure is surrounded by trees and dappled light. Swift and expressionist brushstrokes have been applied to the canvas, giving this pieces its textured and painterly qualities.
This oil on board is housed in a complementary wood frame with an inner linen border. The painting is in very good vintage condition. The frame has some light age wear. less
