Poster with August Strindberg's painting Underlandet from 1894. Until 2010, Wonderland was the most expensive Swedish painting ever sold at auction in Sweden. The work was sold in 1990 for SEK 22.6 million by the Bukowskis.
When Strindberg created the work, he had first intended to paint " a shaded forest interior, from where you can see the sea at sunset ". After painting for a while, however, he noticed that he could see no sea, but instead, in the bright middle part "an endless perspective of pink and bluish light, where airy, incorporeal, indeterminable beings float about like fairies in tows of clouds ”. Strindberg noted that the forest has become a cave and that the foreground looks like rocks covered in lichen.
August Strindberg (1849-1912) was a Swedish writer, playwright and artist. He is considered one of Sweden's most important writers, internationally known primarily as a playwright. Several of his works are considered classics in Swedish literature.
Artist: August Strindberg | Created: 1894.

We deliver worldwide and always offer free shipping! Depending on which country you are shipping to, the delivery may mean that certain customs fees and taxes are added - there is no duty or tax on deliveries within, for example, the EU, USA or Norway.
The delivery time is normally 1-3 working days within the Nordic region, 2-5 to the rest of Europe and 3-8 working days in other parts of the world. As for canvas paintings, we make them by hand in our factory in Sweden.
The canvas needs to dry before we stretch them on a wooden frame and send them to you. The delivery time for a canvas painting is therefore approximately 7 working days within the Nordic countries, slightly longer to other countries.
If you order from Norway, your order will be delivered with Fedex, to Sweden and other parts of the world with DHL. Your package is normally delivered to your nearest agent!
