    Place atop a table and set against a blue chair and a well-coloured backdrop sit a range of objects that include a flower pot with white flowers in bloom, and an orange.

  • Window View

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A pleasant and well-executed mid 20th century still life oil composition, depicting a flower pot placed on a window sill, with a glimpse into the surroundings outside.

    Upon looking at the painting, our eyes are immediately drawn to the flower vase, as its bolder colours are in contrast to the light and gentle pastel shades of the remaining forms.

    Through the use of swift and straight brushstrokes, the artist displays his painterly skills by utilising bold outlines as well as qualities of the shading technique and smooth gradation of colour to not only give rise to the various forms in the composition, but also to give the illusion of depth and dimensionality.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a gilt frame with lovely red undertones.  Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    Size: 52.5 x 44.5 cm (including frame)

  • Earthenware

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A bold and very striking mid century modernist still life composition, executed in oil onto board.

    A group of objects including 2 jars, a bottle, and an assortment of fruit punctuate the centre of the composition.

Through the use of very confident and painterly brushstrokes that have been swiftly applied, the artist skilfully layers colours to form a raw textural quality to this painting.

  • Guitar Player

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A playful and brilliantly executed mid-century figurative composition of a guitar player, executed in oil onto board.

    Drawing inspiration from elements of cubism and geometric abstraction, the artist has masterfully deconstructed the painting down to distinct blocks and geometric forms that overlap and intersect with one another. Each element of the figure and guitar seems to occupy its own distinct space, yet together they form a cohesive and harmonious whole.

    The artist has also skilfully used contrasting colours as well as thin black and red outlines to highlight the three-dimensional qualities of the forms yet maintain a sense of flatness throughout the artwork.

    This oil on board comes unframed. There is some slight wear and losses to the edges of the painting, but this would be hidden if framed.

  • Italian Town

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A soothing and brilliantly executed mid-century modernist style townscape, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The composition depicts a town in Italy, featuring trees set amidst blocks of buildings.

    Drawing on a distinctly modernist ethos, the artist has masterfully reduced the composition down to blocks and planes of contrasting colour, and explores the use of colour and brushstrokes to create a sense of depth and space in this painting.

    The use of a gentle and muted colour palette adds an uplifting quality, and another striking aspect of this painting is the artist’s creative use of negative space. By leaving areas of the canvas exposed, the forms of the building and trees are accentuated, drawing our attention to their distinct forms.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary gilt frame with an inner linen lining. The painting is in very good vintage condition. The linen border of the frame has some minor age toning but this is in keeping with its age.

  • The Golfers

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A brilliantly executed semi-abstract modernist oil composition, painted in 1973 by the established Swedish artist Ivar Morsing (1919-2009), whose works have been exhibited in public collections including the National Museum in Stockholm, Moderna Museet in Stockholm, Kalmar Museum and Jönköping Museum.

    The composition of the painting draws our attention to three figures holding golf bags, set amidst a sprawling golf course with lush greenery. The artist’s deliberate omission of detailed features encourages viewers to focus on the overall atmospheric ambiance as opposed to their individual characteristics.

    Painted in a semi-abstract style, there is a strong focus on expressive and textured brushstrokes, as well as rich colours. The use of painterly and dynamic brushstrokes create a sense of energy and movement throughout the painting, and the clever use of a limited colour palette dominated by various shades of greens and browns helps to unify the composition and emphasise the beauty and lushness of the natural surroundings.

  • Boulders

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A fantastic modernist coastal and landscape study painted in oil onto canvas.

    In this composition there is a distinct emphasis on the forms within the landscape – the artist uses distinct outlines, and blocks of contrasting colours to create a sense of three dimensionality. The artist reminds us that the picture is essentially a flat surface covered in colours and arranged in a certain order, where the repetitive blocks build up to form a complex field. Despite the lean into abstraction, we are still able to discern the view before us, where a large group of boulders surrounded by greenery look out towards a lake or sea, with more land in the distance.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a lovely wood frame with visible grain and an inner cream coloured window. There is a tiny pinhole to the top left corner of the painting, as shown in the close up, probably from previous framing. There is a slight ‘wrinkling’ to the upper left section of the canvas but this is more obvious in the photos than it is in real life. The painting and frame are otherwise in very good vintage condition.

  • Grace

    Sold

    SOLD.

    An intriguing and very confidently executed large oil on canvas, painted in 1987 by female Swedish artist Marianne Kanter, who monogram can be seen in the top left corner.

    On first glance the painting seems almost voyeuristic – we see the backs of two men staring at the undressed female figure. As we take the time to study the painting, in particular the female figure, we begin to notice her expression – she stares directly at us with an enigmatic gaze, completely aware of her position in the room and the attention she holds, both from us as well as the male figures we see. Her confidence is unmissable. Notably, the painting is by a female artist (Marianne Kanter). Could it be that this painting was a comment on the ‘male gaze’, a term coined a few years before in the 70s? We might never know the answer for sure, but it certainly makes the painting a beguiling and intriguing one.

    This large oil on canvas is presented in a very complementary slim frame that suits it perfectly. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    Containing elements of abstraction, the artist has skilfully captured the essence of rolling hills and a dense forest, simplifying and reducing the scene down to planes of limited contrasting colours, and using bold black outlines and green to define the contours of the natural elements.

    The artist has deliberately used a restrained palette that allows for a harmonious and balanced color scheme, with cream hues with subtle yellow undertones evoking a sense of warmth and serenity, while the use of rich forest green signifies lushness and vibrancy of the landscape.
