Kay Christensen, the Hunter’s House - Vintage Oil Painting

1920 - 1940
Description

This twisting fairytale-esque oil painting by Danish artist Kay Christensen (1899-1981) depicts a boy standing before a tree in silhouette. It’s an otherworldly garden, perhaps a dream or metaphor. The boy’s hair is electric.

Fairytales were an inspiration for Christensen, perhaps an escape. His works often sit in the challenging space between reality and fiction. Much like those of Edvard Munch (1863-1944).

Signed in the lower right and inscribed/dated on the reverse. Framed.

Medium: Oil on canvas

Overall size: 30” x 25” / 76cm x 64cm

Year of creation: 1945

Condition: Artwork presents well. Frame with some light wear.

Artist’s auction highlight: £7,300 achieved for an oil painting in 1990.
