A rare, authentic 1969 original oil painting by the listed Swedish artist and ceramist Olle Idewall (1928–1991).

This highly textured surrealist piece features an evocative underwater-like composition in deep indigo blues, complete with a handwritten historical dedication and double signatures.

Housed in a vintage gold-toned wooden gallery frame.

Capture the mysterious beauty of mid-century Scandinavian surrealism. Painted in 1969 by the renowned Gotland-born artist Olle Idewall,

this original oil painting showcases his signature style of blending organic forms with dreamlike backgrounds.

The artwork depicts a captivating, abstract deep-sea or biological landscape rendered in monochromatic rich blue tones, punctuated

by unique textured elements resembling marine life, fossilized shapes, and a striking coral-red focal point.

The sharp, scored textures cut into the heavy oil layers create a multi-dimensional sensory feel.
