Eva Holmberg - Jacobsson 1950's Swedish Oil Painting
One of our favourite Swedish artists, Eva painted regularly in the South of France and although not inscribed this looks to be one of her French Riviera paintings.
A brightly lit summer interior of a simple wooden table, decked with Cherries, a Pineapple and a vase of flowers against the French windows with one drape held back by the painters easel. A delightful impressionist painting.
