Vintage Mid Century Landscape Framed Swedish Oil Painting - Break of Day

1960s

About the Item

BREAK OF DAY Size: 35 x 43 cm (including frame) Oil on Canvas A dramatic atmospheric mid century modernist landscape, painted in oil onto canvas. In this semi-abstract composition that captures the beauty of nature, we can discern what appears to be a hilly landscape, as daybreak sets in. Darker moody shades that have been used to depict the landscape contrast starkly against lighter shades of the sky – adding a dramatic effect to the painting. Expressive, painterly and unrestrained brushstrokes fill the canvas, as the artist has wonderfully layered and mixed the respective colours to add a textural quality as well as demonstrate depth in the painting. This oil on canvas is housed in a unique gilt frame with an inner gilt and maroon velvet-lined window. The colours of frame pick up colours of the painting, and further enhances it overall. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition. Please note all of the artworks we sell are vintage and unless otherwise stated, their condition is typical for their age. This can sometimes include slight changes in colour, yellowing to the varnish, and minor bumps and bruises. We have tried to include as many close-up photos as possible. Should you need more photos or wish to ask us more questions regarding an item's condition, feel free to contact us, we are always happy to help.

    Located in Bristol, GB
    URBAN LANDSCAPE Size: 38.5 x 53.5 cm (including frame) Oil on board A brilliantly executed semi- abstract landscape composition, painted in oil onto board by contemporary British artist Ian Mood. The artist works in broad, expressive strokes, filling in the urban scene with a cacophony of colour. We see areas of the canvas as well as the artist’s outlines, giving it a very raw quality, emphasising the uncompromising nature of the urban landscape. This oil on board is housed in a complementary light blue frame with an inner white window that pairs wonderfully with the painting. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

  • Contemporary Abstract Seascape Framed Oil Painting - Summer Abstraction
    Located in Bristol, GB
    SUMMER ABSTRACTION Size: 65.5 x 65.5 cm (including frame) Oil on board A very atmospheric abstract coastal scape painting, executed in oil onto board by contemporary British artist Ian Mood. Inspired by coastlines, this expansive abstract painting captures the essence of sea, sky and rain, and has a meditative quality. There is a sense of being awash – awash by colour, by nature, by the air, and by the sea. As our eyes move across the painting, the movement of the brushstrokes and the style of the drips and colour wash absorb our attention and settle our mind. This oil on board is housed in a complementary light blue frame with an inner white window that pairs wonderfully with the painting. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.
