Signed and dated: Johan Boström, 1914; Swedish pro painter. Before us is a magnificent view of the sea bay, it is getting dark... The sky and gray clouds are painted in bogrov tones, this adds drama to the impending bad weather. In the foreground, a lone fisherman leisurely plans to unload his catch from a hard day's work. Reflections of fishing sailboats and rocks shimmer on the water surface. In some incredible way, the artist managed to convey the feeling of coolness and freshness of the air on the sea coast before an impending thunderstorm. Instantly changing weather, wind and lighting are inherent in the land of a thousand islands. He uses a varied palette of colors and applies paint in very thin layers, making color transitions less noticeable. Antique oil painting on canvas, signed, framed.
