Original Swedish Oil on Masonite – “Spain 1961” By Arne Bohman (1912–1992) – Signed & Dated 1961 – Vintage & Framed – 39 × 48 cm (15.4" × 18.9") incl. frame
An original Swedish oil painting on masonite titled Spain 1961, created by Arne Bohman (1912–1992) and signed and dated “Arne Bohman Spanien 1961.” The composition depicts a stylized Southern European architectural scene with whitewashed facades, blue domes, and softly connected building forms. Executed in a modernist style, the work demonstrates Bohman's refined sense of colour, structure, and atmosphere. An older newspaper clipping containing an obituary for the artist remains attached to the reverse, adding an interesting element of provenance. Presented framed, the painting remains in very good vintage condition.

Artist & Provenance
Arne Bohman was a Swedish modernist painter whose work frequently explored architecture, landscape, and the effects of light and colour. Spain 1961 reflects the artist's fascination with Mediterranean surroundings, translating architectural forms into a harmonious arrangement of simplified shapes and luminous tones. The surviving newspaper clipping on the reverse further enhances the historical interest and provenance of the work.
