Eric Ekengren, Moonlight Landscape With Sailboats

Eric Ekengren, Moonlight Landscape With Sailboats

An atmospheric mountainous nocturne with sailboats by Swedish artist, Eric Ekengren (1868-1955). It’s been painted with broad expressive marks and a palette that seems to draw you further towards it.

Ekengren began his career as an engineer but later devoted himself to his art. Some of his landscapes feature coastal views from England and France.

The painting is signed in the lower left and housed within a beautiful gilt frame that’s probably its original.

Conservation & History

We care profoundly about our role as custodians and every piece in the collection has been assessed by our conservator. When required, we undertake professional restoration carefully using reversible techniques and adopt a light touch to retain the aged charm of each work. We also often restore frames rather than replace them as many are original and selected by the artists themselves.
