Mid-Century Modern Swedish "The Fruit Tree Pickers" Vintage Oil Painting, Framed

The fruit tree pickers. Size: 58.5 X 50.5 cm (including frame) Oil on canvas. A brilliantly executed and playful figurative composition with abstract qualities, painted in oil onto canvas. This composition features two fruit tree pickers engaged in the act of harvesting fruit from an abundant tree. Containing elements of geometric abstraction, the artist has intentionally chosen not to depict the figures and the surrounding environment realistically and has instead reduced them to blocks of shapes in contrasting colours. The different shapes have been carefully juxtaposed against one another, creating a wonderful interplay of uplifting colours that heightens the visual impact of the composition, and imbues it with a sense of liveliness. This oil on canvas is housed in a wide gilt frame with a painted black inner border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has bumps and some paint losses as shown.
