Sewing

A charming, intimate Swedish mid century painting of a woman mending, probably sheets; there is a real sense of effort and concentration. The palette is muted and calm, eau de nil, blues and white.

Signed Gosta Nasvall 1918-1989, dated 58

Oil on canvas in a vintage distressed gilt frame. Please look at the photos carefully; I love this slightly fatigued look but not everyone does!
