A large, beautiful and subtle abstract figurative composition, executed in oil onto canvas.
Abstract in nature, the forms in the composition are not clearly defined but our interpretation discerns a standing male figure embracing a female figure.
The artist has worked with a subdued and muted colour palette that instils a soothing quality to the painting. There is a beautiful transition from darker shades of blue and grey to lighter shades of cream and grey. Distinct energetic brushstrokes fill the canvas, adding an expressive effect and a wonderful textural quality to the painting.
This oil on canvas is housed in a slim wood frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some light scuffing.

A very long and narrow lively mid century mountain landscape, executed in oil onto canvas.
The composition depicts a scenic and panoramic view of a cool blue lake being surrounded by mountains behind it. In the foreground, some trees with striking autumn-coloured leaves line a trail.
Leaning towards fauvism and also painted in a semi-abstract manner, the painting emphasises vibrant and rich colours as well as energetic and unrestrained brushstrokes. Although a very much subjective and emotional response to the landscape, it wonderfully captures the beauty of nature.
Its long horizonal layout would make it the perfect piece for an above-the-bed hang.
This painting is housed in a complementary gilt frame with an inner linen lining and another gilt window. The painting is in very good vintage condition, and the frame has minor areas of scuffing.

An outstanding mid century modernist composition in oil, painted onto board.
The composition presents a bustling village scene where a group of female figures in the foreground are surrounding some tents, presumably shopping for fresh produce. In the background, we can see a facade of buildings in the village.
The artist has reduced the scene down to its formal qualities, focusing on shape, line, pattern and colour. A very rich and wide spectrum of colours have been used, and the contrasting shades that have been layered upon one another harmonise wonderfully together. The silhouettes of the figures and village scape have been outlined in varying shades of blue – highlighting the three-dimensional qualities of their form whilst adding interest to the painting. Expressive and energetic brushstrokes have been thoughtfully applied and dabbed across the surface, leaving a beautiful textural quality.
It almost appears that artist has painted this brilliant composition with a fisheye perspective as the scene is displayed with a wider viewing angle and slight curvature.
This oil on board is housed in a wooden frame with a linen border and silver detail. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

A large and panoramic mid century modernist composition in oil, painted onto canvas.
A group of cottages with walnut brown roofs line the landscape, set amidst a rural landscape in rich and deep autumnal colours.
A range of expressionist brushstrokes in varying tones of orange, brown and black create a wonderful sense of depth and texture, and finer detailing of spots of red and yellow give the painting an intricate quality, encourage our eyes to focus our attention on the painting and study the details of what is before us. As we study the painting, we begin to notice finer details such as a pond, fence posts, and possibly a bridge.
This large oil on canvas is housed in a wide profile frame with linen border and silver and black detail. The frame has some slight wear commensurate with age. Otherwise, both the painting and frame are in very good vintage condition. Please note that some glare is evident in the photographs.

Working with a restrained colour palette comprising shades of black, white and cream, this cityscape features rows of tall buildings under a clear blue sky.

A large mid century oil on canvas, painted in a distinctly modernist style. The artist has painted a broad, panoramic view of the rooftops of a coastal town, with the view of the sea in the distance. Flat planes of colour in broad and distinct brushstrokes have been juxtaposed one next to the other, creating a sense of space and depth within the picture, leading our eyes from the foreground (the roofs) to the background (the sea). This has also created a geometric effect which gives the painting an element of abstraction.
The painting is housed in its original mid century frame, which has a very wide profile. The inner section has been lined with a grey fabric. Both painting and frame are in good vintage condition.

A large, expressive and serene panoramic view of a coastal scape, painted in oil onto canvas.
As our eyes shift from the top to the bottom of the painting, we can notice the colours intensifying – with lighter and calmer shades of blue and green filling the top half of the work, juxtaposed by rich and saturated colours in the bottom half. In addition to this, the brushstrokes similarly intensify – with softer sweeping stokes filling the top half, and short, swift and more textured brushstrokes at the bottom.
Overall, the painting exudes tranquillity and would make a statement piece in any interior with its large size.
This oil on canvas is housed in a wide profile gilt frame with an inner linen lining. There are very light and minor surface marks on the top half of the painting, but it is in good vintage condition overall.

A large and gentle coastal landscape composition, painted in oil onto canvas and dated 1953 on the reverse.
Executed in a semi-abstract manner, the artist has intentionally left details of the coastal landscape fairly obscure as he depicts two boats by the edge of a body of water, and a row of trees lining the coast in the background of the painting.
The composition has been skilfully reconstructed down to blocks of contrasting colours and brushstrokes. Using a restrained palette comprising darker and lighter shades of blue, green and brown, a combination of short and gentle brushstrokes have been used to paint the lighter shades of the sky and sea, and swift and expressive brushstrokes have been used to paint the darker shades of the trees, boats and land in the foreground. These contrasting tones and brushstrokes have been thoughtfully executed to demonstrate depth to the painting. Overall, this restful composition has a very calming quality, and can add a soothing effect to any interior space.
This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary gilt frame with linen outer border and an inner gilt window. There are minor scuffs to the frame, but overall the painting and frame are both in very good vintage condition.

A large, panoramic oil depicting a traditionally-rigged sailing vessel, painted in oil in 1947. This bold, expressive oil features rich colouring and distinct and dynamic brushstrokes. The artist’s confident and skilful painterly manner is certainly apparent, and the combination of the rich palette, dynamic strokes and large size would make this a statement piece in any interior.
The painting is housed in a wide and robust gilt and green frame that suits it very well. The painting has areas of craquelure and some minor areas of surface paint loss which are visible upon close inspection and are typical for an oil painting of this age (as shown in photos), but these do not detract from the overall attractiveness of the painting. The frame is in good condition with some very minor scuffs to the inner window.

A large and highly textured mid-century abstract modernist composition, executed in oil onto board.
This abstract composition blurs the boundary between painting and sculpture, with its three dimensional surface protruding from the board. A series grooves and and lines have been etched into the thickly painted surface, which features an array of thoughtfully arranged geometric shapes in rich and lively colours. The grooves and lines almost resemble threads, almost as though the surface has been embroidered. The artist has clearly pushed the medium to its limits, experimenting with several textural effects.
Although abstract in nature, the artwork could perhaps resemble an island with areas of land, mountains and sea.
With its focus on the beauty of colour, line, texture, brushstrokes, shapes and patterns, this intriguing and very energetic artwork would make for an excellent statement piece in any interior. Its punch of colour and sculptural qualities are a visual feast for the eyes.

The artist appears to have used one continues thick black outline to create the shape of the cat, and has added 4 large angular geometrical shapes presumably to signify the patches of colour on the cat. All this is set against a vivid red background, set within a gorgeous gilt frame.
Given the size of the painting, it would make a brilliant statement piece in an interior. The painting is housed in a very complementary gilt frame with an inner grey border. Both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.
Size: 86 x 105 cm (including frame)
