About the Item
This atmospheric landscape from 1910 offers a rare glimpse into a lesser-known side of Sam Uhrdin’s work. Painted before his formal art education, the canvas reveals an emerging artist with a natural command of composition and mood. The dramatic sky—swirling with grey, white, and blue clouds—dominates the scene, stretching over a quiet, snow-covered plain marked by low vegetation. The result is a powerful and contemplative image of the Nordic landscape, full of space, light, and early spring tension.
Sam Uhrdin (1886–1964) began his career as a decorative painter and travelled to America in 1906 to work as a sign painter and upholsterer. After returning to Sweden via London and Paris in 1909, his artistic talent was recognized, and with support from local patrons, he was admitted to the Royal Swedish Academy of Fine Arts in 1911. His studies were short-lived, however, as portrait commissions soon began to dominate his time. He would go on to become one of Sweden’s most prolific portraitists, depicting figures such as Prime Minister Nils Edén and King Gustav V.
Uhrdin is best known for his depictions of life in Dalarna—folk interiors, portraits, and regional landscapes—but this early work stands apart. It reflects an artist at a crossroads, still discovering his voice, and already showing remarkable sensitivity to atmosphere and form.

Sam Uhrdin
Sam Uhrdin (Swedish School, 1886-1964) Sam Uhrdin was born in 1886 in the Swedish town of Siljasnas to the north-west of Stockholm. Uhrdin's talent for drawing was recognized from a young age and he was sent to study painting at the Stockholm Academy of Fine Art. Uhrdin quickly gained a reputation for painting scenes of everyday life rendered in intimate settings bathed in warm and subtle light. Uhrdin's paintings often feature women working delicately and today his work can be seen in the public museum of Leksand in Sweden.

A Winter Landscape by Swedish Artist Rikard Lindström
Located in Stockholm, SE
Depicting a winter wonderland, this piece mesmerizes the viewer with its turquoise sky - a bold and unique choice that draws the eyes upwards. But the narrative is more profound. Set against this sky is a distant, rugged stone hill, standing as a testament to the timeless beauty of nature. A few trees benethe the hill, gracefully blanketed with snow. The snow itself is no ordinary white, but a mix of pink and blue shimmers, giving the piece a more interesting quality.
More intriguing are the tracks left in the snow. Whose might they be? An animal, perhaps? Or did the artist himself tread this frozen landscape, leaving behind a subtle signature? Such is the mystery of Lindström's work.
Rikard Magnus Lindström (1882-1943) was not just a painter but a storyteller, deeply rooted in his Swedish heritage. He's best known for his paintings of archipelago scenes, where the tranquil and tempestuous moods of the sea often play central characters. Born in Stockholm, Lindström's journey into the art world began at the Konstakademien in Stockholm, and his passion took him to Copenhagen and Paris. Throughout his life, Lindström's restless spirit saw him wander, capturing the diverse landscapes of Stockholm's archipelago, Västkusten, Åland, and notably, Lofoten. His affinity for portraying the vast expanse of the sea, often with sailing vessels in the backdrop, is legendary.
Lindström's colors were described as "powerful yet harmonious," and this piece is no exception. The juxtaposition of the turquoise sky with the shimmering snow showcases his masterful play with colors.
A member of the younger generation of the Konstnärsförbundet, Lindström was greatly influenced by the older members, particularly by Karl Nordström's national-romantic paintings. Besides painting, Lindström had a flair for writing and was a popular contributor to Dagens Nyheter, often penning articles and notes in Morgonbris.
However, beneath the vivacious, nature-loving exterior was a man of depth and complexity, as his ex-wife, Martha Rydell-Lindström, has depicted in her book. He was a lover of life, but his nature held layers of vulnerability and tenderness.
Today, this winter landscape stands as a tribute not just to Lindström's artistic genius but to the very essence of the man himself. Embrace the opportunity to own a piece of Swedish art history, painted by an artist whose legacy continues to inspire.
