Jan Holm (1961-2007) - By the bathing lake

By the Bathing Lake Jan Holm (1961-2007), Sweden's premier figurative artist, transformed Swedish summers into joyous expressions of life - his childhood cancer journey amplified themes of freedom and vitality, with works auctioned for Barncancerfonden charity. This acrylic on canvas (c. 1995-2007), stamp signed, a four-panel composition (50 x 61 cm unframed), captures bathers' spontaneous moments: a crouched nude woman, standing figure back-view, diver plunging, and lake panorama with trees and cabin - blues, greens, and golds glisten with light on water and skin. ​ Holm evoked sleepless Nordic nights and naked liberation by the lake; this multi-panel "film-still" format conveys simultaneity and motion, hallmark of his post-expressionist humanism - rare charity-proven piece celebrating unburdened joy. Good condition, unframed on stretchers.
