Médecine

Residing between Prague and southern Sweden, Nina Makelberge focuses on collecting and creating one-of-a-kind objects that bring individuality and intimacy, that help turn a place into a space for living. Her love for beautiful interiors, a trained eye to mix classical and contemporary design and the merging of her European roots with influences from her upbringing in India, Malaysia, Korea are the foundations behind Médecine’s world and her design practice. Besides offering her carefully curated collection of antiques and art objects, she also designs her own line of accessories, drawing on ancient techniques native to Bohemia and her fascination for the perennial myth of shells and the sea.

The rich patina of this dark wood frame immediately signals authentic mid century modern painting craftsmanship. Eric Cederberg's oil on board captures the restrained palette and contemplative quality that defined Swedish modernist still life work of the late 1950s. The artist's signature placement in the upper right corner follows period conventions. Original matting with its brass-toned inner border shows gentle aging that confirms provenance. The composition itself—shells and stones arranged on weathered wood—reflects the Scandinavian fascination with natural forms during this era. Cederberg's brushwork demonstrates the technical precision expected from trained Swedish artists of his generation. The painting's compact dimensions make it particularly desirable for collectors seeking authentic period pieces.

This mid century modern painting represents a perfect entry point into Scandinavian modernist collecting. Cederberg's work bridges the gap between traditional still life painting and the simplified aesthetic that would define Nordic design. The condition remains remarkably stable for a sixty-year-old oil painting. Collectors appreciate these smaller format works for their versatility in contemporary interiors. The Oblist recognizes pieces like this as essential building blocks for serious vintage collections. The surrealist influences mentioned in Cederberg's background add intellectual depth beyond mere decorative appeal. For those seeking authentic mid century modern painting with documented provenance, this represents both artistic merit and solid collecting fundamentals.
