Fantastic mid century still life from Sweden by listed artist Sigfrid Bengtsson titled "The Glass Horse and Flower". Excellent paint handing with beautiful color harmony and a lovely composition in this striking oil of a purple iris in a turquoise vase and a small decorative glass horse. The impasto brushwork and muted background add depth and character to this elegant composition. My photography does not do this painting justice- the colors are very lovely in person. A classic mid century still life.
