Two topless women relax on sun loungers by a riverbank, while on the opposite bank a naked man sails a boat. It's a scene of leisure, but the gray tones and, above all, the trees so black they appear to be on fire convey a profound desolation.
A late-blooming painter, Kent has set out to tell the stories of his relatives and fellow citizens of Hallstahammar in naive-style paintings that document a rapidly disappearing Swedish rural life.
