Stefan Johansson's "Julikväll" at Important Spring Sale
Stefan Johansson, "Julikväll"
"Silence and stillness, an atmosphere of solemn tranquility, of reverence and refined seriousness, this is Stefan Johansson's gift to posterity."
One of the most characteristic features of Johansson's art from the 1940s is his ability to depict the Swedish landscape in different light conditions and seasons. In the auction's painting "Julikväll" from 1944, he captures the sunset over a landscape with water and trees. By using warm golden and red tones, Johansson succeeds in creating a sense of peacefulness and beauty, enhanced by the soft and diffuse reflections of light in the water.
