About the Item

Johan (John Kindborg) (1861-1907) Sweden Nordic Winter Twilight, 1901 oil on canvas signed and dated Kindborg 01. unframed: 48.5 x 33 cm (19 1/8 x 13 in) framed: 58 x 43 cm (22 7/8 x 16 7/8 in) Essay: This captivating winter landscape by Johan Kindborg (1861–1907) offers a rare and luminous depiction of a Swedish forest at dusk. Under a blanket of snow, the winding path draws the viewer into a serene world where tall pines frame a view toward a lake reflecting the last light of day. The sky, painted in delicate shades of pink, lilac, and deep violet, bathes the scene in a quiet, almost mystical glow. The mirrored sunset on the water glimmers in a spectrum of colors—from golden amber to dusky rose—rendering this moment both vibrant and hushed. Kindborg studied at the Royal Swedish Academy of Fine Arts and further honed his skills under the guidance of Edvard Perséus and Oscar Törnå. He traveled extensively in Europe, absorbing influences from Paris, London, Vienna, and Munich. Though best known for his atmospheric views of Stockholm and depictions of Sweden’s royal palaces, he also painted evocative scenes from the countryside. This work is a striking example of his ability to combine naturalistic detail with a poetic sense of light and atmosphere. Kindborg’s work is represented in the collections of the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, Norrköping Art Museum, and Kalmar Art Museum.

Large Scale Winter Twilight Landscape Painting by Artist Mauritz Lindström
Located in Stockholm, SE
This stunning winter landscape by Mauritz Lindström captures the serene yet striking beauty of a snow-laden scene illuminated by the warm glow of twilight. The interplay between the soft, colorful hues of the evening sky and the intricate, frost-covered branches creates an almost three-dimensional effect, drawing the viewer into the composition. The detailed rendering of the snow and the trees evokes a profound sense of coldness, making the atmosphere almost palpable. Measuring an impressive 101 x 152 cm (39 3/4 x 59 7/8 in) with the frame, this large-scale work is a testament to Lindström's mastery of light and texture. Arvid Mauritz Lindström...
