Bio: Swedish painting in the mid-20th century was characterised by a balance between naturalistic subjects and a more expressive, colour-driven approach. Floral motifs were frequently used as a means of exploring colour, rhythm, and brushwork, and many artists adopted a loose and immediate technique that lends the compositions a vivid and tactile quality.
