This spirited 20th-century oil painting by Swedish artist Ivan Bergdahl (1929-2021) depicts the rapid waters of Saltälven in Norway.

It’s a dynamic work imbued with a sense of nature’s power. The near fluorescent hues of the foam-tipped river gush past at pace. Its omnipresent sound radiating through the valley. Imagine the artist perched on the rocks, sketching on this brisk Autumnal day.

Bergdahl was particularly adept at capturing water as it coursed through uneven rocks. Often it appears like an artery amid an abundant vista - nature’s lifeblood in full force.

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.
