A beautifully composed Swedish modernist still life by Raymond Wallentin, painted in 1952. The composition balances softened floral forms against a structured, geometric backdrop, giving the work a distinctly cubist-influenced feel while remaining calm and highly decorative. Blocks of slate blue, deep burgundy, olive and chalky grey are layered across the surface with subtle texture throughout, creating a palette that feels both architectural and organic. The angular composition is softened by the loose stems and leaves, giving the painting warmth despite its graphic structure. There’s a quiet sophistication to it — restrained, balanced and very easy to place. The kind of piece that sits naturally within contemporary interiors while still feeling unmistakably mid-century. Oil on canvas by artist Raymond Wallentin (Sweden, 1906-1988), signed lower right and dated 1952. Dimensions 42x37cm framed. Condition: good vintage condition.
