Elof Wedin (Swedish/American, 1901-1983). Oil on board painting titled "Chicago Construction" depicting a cityscape with construction equipment, 1928. Pencil signed and dated along the verso, on which is perhaps painted a preparatory painting. There is a clear plexiglass sheet that protects the verso and allows the signature to be seen.

Provenance: Distinguished corporate collection, Minnesota.

Sight; height: 19 1/2 in x width: 15 1/2 in. Framed; height: 20 in x width: 24 in.

Condition

The painting shows no signs of restoration when inspected under UV light. There are a few areas that fluoresce under UV light, however, this is likely due to the pigment used during the painting's inception. Soiling to the verso original to the artistic process.
