Very expressive brush work and excellent color harmony in this striking cafe scene by listed artist Gunnar Malm from Sweden titled "Bars in Collioure, France". An atmospheric evening scene capturing three friends at a small cafe under glowing lamplight. The rich blues in the sky and the warm light create a beautiful contrast giving the whole piece a lovely glow. I love the use of design and color in this painting. Very atmospheric and stunning in person! International Delivery with DHL included in price.
