Dancing Couples by Fritz Högberg, Oil on Canvas, Signed

A small by mighty oil on canvas by Swedish artist Fritz Högberg (1899–1956), portraying three couples mid-dance in a colorful, celebratory interior. The stylized figures, exaggerated gestures, and bold color palette reflect Expressionist influences, imbuing the scene with energy, movement, and psychological depth. Högberg captures both the joy and subtle tension of social interaction in this richly detailed composition. Signed by the artist and presented in a giltwood frame.
