A very pleasant modernist still life oil composition dated 1974, and painted by the established Swedish artist Ture Fabiansson (1910-1994), whose works have been exhibited in public collections including the Moderna Museet in Stockholm, The Museum of Art in Gothenburg, Jönköping Museum, Borås Art Museum, and many others. Featuring 4 luscious apples arranged on a green clothed surface and contrasted against a brown backdrop, the painting invites viewers to appreciate the beauty of simple, everyday objects. It embodies the essence of a modernist style and we can see influences by post-impressionist French artist Paul Cezanne. The apples and their surrounding have been rendered with a combination of expressive and loose brushstrokes, capturing their roundness and beauty, and the gentle muted colour palette imbues the work with a soothing quality. This oil on canvas is housed in a slim wood frame. Painting & frame are in excellent vintage condition. 29.5 x 41 cm (including frame)...more
