Striking signed mid-century mosaic wall panel by June E. Johnson, dated 1962 on the reverse. This rectangular composition features an abstract still-life arrangement of vessels, bottle forms, bowls, and geometric blocks rendered in hand-cut mosaic tiles. The palette includes turquoise, aqua, cream, olive green, plum, and deep teal, giving the piece a distinctly 1960s modernist feel.
The work is set within a simple dark wood frame and combines both smooth tile sections and raised textured areas, creating strong surface depth and visual movement. The imagery has a sophisticated studio-art quality, with influences of modernist still life, Cubist abstraction, and architectural mosaic design.
Signed and dated on the back: “June E. Johnson” with the date 1-6-62 and additional notation. A wonderful decorative art piece for a mid-century modern, studio craft, or postwar modernist interior.
