About the Item

Gustaf Fjæstad (Fjaestad) (1868–1948) Sweden A Rocky Shore at Night, Full Moon Signed “G. F.” Authenticated on the reverse by Bo Fjæstad (1903–1991), the artist’s son pencil on paper unframed: 214 × 317 mm (8 ½ × 12 ½ in.) framed: 30 × 37 cm (11 ¾ × 14 ½ in.) Provenance: Bo Fjæstad (Arvika 1903–1991 Arvika), the artist’s son, sculptor and furniture designer This atmospheric drawing was likely executed around 1900–1905, and the motif probably derives from Lake Racken in Värmland, where Fjæstad built his house in 1902. Remarkably, the illusion of the moon is created solely by leaving the paper untouched. Fjæstad usually painted directly before the motif or from photographs, making drawings of this kind exceedingly rare.
