Village Street, 1953 | Oil on Canvas by Nils Hansson

A warm, painterly village street scene painted in 1953 by Nils Hansson, capturing the gentle geometry of red roofs and quiet façades as the road curves inward toward a small central spire. Executed with confident, expressive brushwork and a softened palette of clay reds, muted greys, and pale sky tones, the composition feels both architectural and atmospheric, grounded in place yet open to interpretation.

The slightly flattened perspective and simplified forms give the work an appealing modernist clarity, while the visible hand of the painter, particularly in the rooflines and street surface, lends movement and immediacy. It is the kind of painting that holds a room without insisting on it: calm, distinctive, and deeply livable.

Signed and dated 1953, and presented in a complementary frame that quietly amplifies the painting’s presence.
