A brilliantly executed and characterful surrealist still life composition, executed in tempera on board, by the established Swedish artist Eric Cederberg (1897-1984), whose artworks have been represented in several public and museum collections across Sweden.

The main focus is a still life arrangement, where the objects are flatly rendered, with strong outlines and solid colours, giving them a stylized, almost graphic appearance. The still life is set against a dramatic landscape featuring dark, jagged rock formations and a glowing yellow-orange sky. The horizon line is low, creating a sense of vastness and emphasizing the glowing sunset or sunrise. Two distant rocky outcrops are visible on the horizon, adding depth and a touch of realism.

This painting is a striking combination of still life and landscape, juxtaposing the intimate simplicity of fruit and household objects with the grandeur and drama of a glowing, otherworldly landscape. The bold use of colour and form creates a stylized and dynamic composition, blending realism with abstraction. It evokes a sense of harmony between the everyday and the sublime.

This tempera on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has very minor scuffs, but is in good condition overall.

Size: 29.5 x 34 cm (including frame)
