    I Spring in Halland Nils Kreuger focuses on the lines ploughed into the meadow landscape, which create decorative patterns in the soil. Kreuger has emphasised these lines with ink on top of the oil paint, almost the only Swedish artist to do so. This created a special stylising effect together with the fundamentally fairly realistic oil painting.
