Still Life 1941

"Still Life" (1941) by Swedish painter Vilhelm Lundstrom is a vibrant example of Cubist-inspired still life. The artwork showcases a simplified composition of geometric shapes and bold colors. The artist uses flat planes of color to depict everyday objects, like books, jars, and an apple, creating a sense of depth and abstract form. The image exhibits the influence of Cubism, where objects are broken down into geometric shapes and rearranged, highlighting the artist's emphasis on form and color over realistic representation. Lundstrom's signature style brings a unique dynamism to this timeless genre.
