Mid-century still life in traditional technique. Signed, oil on panel. Painter Tage E. Nilsson (1918-2016) is mostly known for his landscapes and plein air paintings. This rare still life shows his traditional, though colorful technique. The painting is surface cleaned and comes with a complementary, well-suited silver vintage wood frame. Both painting and frame may show some age-related wear and tear, which largely contributes to their charm. The best way to see this is through the photos, so study them because they form the description.
