A view of Filipstad in Sweden by E. Persson, painted in 1911. This naive landscape depicts the town of Filipstad in Värmland and its famous 18th century church on a snowy winter day. It's an exquistely simple yet elegant composition, with the white snow and icy water picking out the traditional Swedish red houses. The painting is damaged, with areas of paint loss and craquelure, in need of restoration.
