Artist & Provenance
Sven Johansson (20th Century) was a Swedish painter known for his disciplined figure studies, portraiture, and expressive studio work. His paintings often balance anatomical accuracy with painterly softness, reflecting the Scandinavian tradition of observational training combined with mid‑century tonal sensibilities.
Johansson exhibited in regional art societies and participated in curated shows focused on figurative practice. His works appear in private collections across Sweden and occasionally in municipal exhibitions.
Model Study is a strong example of Johansson’s ability to capture both form and atmosphere within a restrained, elegant composition.
