Ib Spang Olsen (1921–2012) was one of the most distinctive Danish graphic artists and illustrators of the 20th century. His work remains an important reference point in post-war Scandinavian illustration and graphic art.
The print is a strong example of mid-century Northern European graphic art, where everyday life blends with imagination. The composition depicts a Copenhagen city scene with a subtle surreal and narrative quality - characteristic of Scandinavian graphic art of the period. In Olsen's art, Copenhagens neighborhoods are often the main subjects and familiar with the city can recognize it with no mistake.
The lithograph is in new elegant wooden frame with a protective glass. This piece has an attribution mark,
