Very large and vibrant oil painting, measuring 133 × 112 cm. A striking bouquet of red poppies rendered in Ernfrid’s expressive, highly textured brushwork, set against a luminous green and turquoise landscape. The intense red blossoms create a powerful contrast with the surrounding vegetation, while the vigorous, almost gestural application of paint gives the work a strong sense of movement and spontaneity.
Bo Ernfrid was born in 1929 and became particularly known in Gothenburg, where he painted and exhibited extensively during the 1980s and 1990s. His colourful, expressive approach has been associated with influences from the Cobra movement.
A particularly impressive example of Ernfrid’s colourful and emotionally charged nature paintings, and an imposing statement piece due to its exceptional size.
