Eric Cederberg
![]() |
Eric Algot Cederberg (1897–1984) was a Swedish painter whose work combined intimate still lifes with cityscapes, landscapes, and occasional abstract compositions. Born in Välluv, Skåne, to Per Cederberg and Gudrun Björegren, he was largely self-taught, supplementing his development with study trips to Denmark, Germany, Paris, and southern France. He debuted with an exhibition in Helsingborg in 1922 and went on to participate regularly in group shows, including with the Skåne Art Association (from 1926), the Swedish General Art Association (from 1938), and Kulla Art (from 1945). His small, Braque-inspired still lifes reveal a modernist sensibility, while his broader oeuvre reflects both urban and natural environments. Cederberg is represented in several Swedish collections, including Kristianstad Museum, Västerås Art Museum, the Archives in Lund, and Helsingborg Museum, where his oil painting View from the Studio is held. |
