This evocative oil painting by Swedish artist Göran Brunius captures the serene landscape of Gotland, rendered in confident, textured brushstrokes. The composition features undulating fields under a windswept sky, with soft, rolling hills and scattered trees lending rhythm to the scene. Brunius employs a bold, impressionistic technique, layering colors with a palette knife or thick brush to give the landscape a vibrant, tactile presence. The sky dominates the upper part of the canvas with expressive strokes in cool blues and muted purples, suggesting the shifting weather typical of the island. A testament to mid-century Swedish landscape painting, this work reflects Brunius’s deep sensitivity to place and atmosphere.
