Mid-century modern swedish "the children" figurative framed oil painting

The children. Size: 36.5 X 66 cm (including frame) Oil on board. A richly textured and endearing mid century modernist style figurative portrait, painted in oil onto board. Rendered in an expressionist manner, the artwork depicts 5 young figures, presumably children, of which each respective form has been outlined in black in a sketch-like manner. The artist has used a unique sepia tone palette with hints of green, blue and grey. Expressive and unrestrained brushstrokes have been loosely applied and layered upon one another, adding interest and a raw and textural quality to the painting. This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame with an inner linen border. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.
