Description
An abstract composition by Swedish artist Bertil Berntsson, signed and dated 1957. The work features minimal gestural forms in black and grey against a pale ground, characteristic of Berntsson’s transition to a more abstract, stripped-down, and purist visual language during this period. The piece is framed in an untreated oak box frame by Bergevall Ramar, Stockholm.
Bertil Berntsson (1921-2002) was a Swedish artist who studied at Valand in Gothenburg and with André Lhote in Paris. He debuted in 1939 and gradually moved from impressionistic landscapes to abstract, minimalist compositions often executed in grayish tones. Berntsson is represented in major collections including Stockholms Moderna Museet, Malmö Konstmuseum, and Ystad Konstmuseum.
