A Swedish mid-century floral still life, featuring vibrant red-orange poppies, yellow and white daffodils and pussy willow branches arranged in a simple cream jug, with three pieces of fruit on a blue-and-white checked cloth. Loose, expressive brushwork and a muted palette give this charming vintage painting its distinctly Scandinavian character. Housed in a handsome gilt frame.
