    A gestural contemporary abstract painting that evokes the meeting of land, sky, and memory through a restrained yet deeply expressive composition, executed in oil onto canvas and comes unframed.

    A broad expanse of soft, atmospheric grey-beige occupies the upper portion of the canvas, while the lower section is animated by sweeping bands of white, umber, espresso brown, and charcoal. The scene suggests a windswept shoreline, a snow-covered plain, or a distant horizon viewed through mist, though it remains intentionally open to interpretation.

    Executed in a minimalist abstract landscape style, the work balances serenity with movement. The composition is anchored by a low horizon line, creating a strong sense of space and contemplation. Its understated palette and reductive forms recall gestural abstraction, where mood and texture take precedence over literal representation.

    The colour palette is sophisticated and neutral, comprising warm taupes, soft greys, ivory whites, rich chocolate browns, and touches of deep black. These earthy tones lend the painting a calming, organic presence while creating subtle contrasts between light and dark.

    Brushwork is energetic and tactile in the lower half of the composition. Broad palette-knife sweeps, scraped passages, and layered impasto create a richly textured surface that captures and reflects light. In contrast, the sky is rendered with thin, softly blended layers, producing a velvety, atmospheric effect. The interplay between smooth and heavily worked areas creates both visual tension and harmony, inviting prolonged viewing.

    This oil on canvas is presented unframed. The work remains in very good condition overall.

  • Valley Walk

    Valley Walk

    £615

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A joyful and expressive mid-century landscape painting, executed in oil by the established Swedish artist Uno Vallman (1913-2004) whose works are included in the Swedish National Museum and The Swedish Modern Museum, to name a few. His works are also included in the collections of Lyndon Johnson, Jimmy Carter, and the Tessin Institute in Paris.

    This painting captures a gently winding path leading through a lush, sunlit valley, framed by softly rising mountains in the distance. Two loosely rendered figures stroll along the road, adding a quiet sense of human presence and narrative. Nestled among the greenery, vivid red houses punctuate the scene, their warmth contrasting beautifully against the cool blues of the sky and distant peaks.

    Containing elements of fauvism and expressionism, the work embraces simplicity and spontaneity. The composition is outlined with confident, almost childlike black contour lines, giving structure while allowing the colour to remain playful and free. The palette is fresh and uplifting: soft blue skies, mint and sage greens, punctuated with dabs of lemon yellow, and coral.

    Brushstrokes are loose, textured, and instinctive, with areas of visible layering that create movement and energy across the surface. There is a lovely rhythm in the repetition of the trees and the undulating path, guiding the eye naturally through the composition. Overall, the piece evokes a sense of lightness and pastoral charm, capturing not just a place, but a feeling of ease and quiet joy.

    This oil on canvas is present in a beautiful gilt frame that features a stepped, moulded profile with subtle ridging that draws the eye inward. The painting has small areas of craquelure present, including a minor area of slightly loose paint within the upper sky. The frame shows some scuffing consistent with age.

  • Veils of Light

    Veils of Light

    £465

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A serene mid-century modern composition that evokes a dreamlike architectural landscape suspended between reality and memory, executed in oil onto board.

    Monumental geometric forms emerge from a luminous mist, their sharp angles softened by an atmosphere of stillness and quiet contemplation. In the distance, delicate buildings and slender sailboats appear almost as apparitions, while a solitary sphere and folded plane-like forms in the foreground introduce a subtle surrealist tension.

    Rendered in a restrained palette of icy blues, pearl whites, silvery greys, and blushes of lavender, the painting is suffused with a cool, ethereal light. The artist masterfully employs tonal gradation rather than strong contrast, allowing forms to dissolve gently into one another and creating a sense of vast, open space.

    The style reflects the refined elegance of mid-century modernism, combining geometric abstraction with elements of surrealist painting. Architectural volumes are reduced to their essential shapes, lending the work a contemplative quality.

    Brushwork is exceptionally smooth and controlled, with finely blended layers producing a soft, almost airbrushed appearance. Subtle horizontal strokes in the sky and delicate transitions of tone throughout the composition contribute to the painting’s tranquil atmosphere, while crisp edges on the geometric forms provide structure and balance. The result is a poetic meditation on light, space, and silence.

    This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary silver-painted wood frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some scuffing as shown.

  • Abstracted Nature

    Abstracted Nature

    £650

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A brilliantly executed abstract composition drawn in biro onto paper, by British artist Enos Lovatt (1937-2018).

    This intricate composition has a dynamic, surreal quality, filled with abstract forms and stylised figures. The cross-hatching and dense linework typical of biro drawings are skilfully used to create depth, contrast, and texture. The artist plays with positive and negative space, using white areas effectively to highlight the main forms amidst the dark, densely filled background.

    The drawing has strong influences from Surrealism and Abstract Expressionism, with its dream-like imagery and focus on fluidity, symbolism, and subconscious forms. There’s a sense of narrative, though it remains open-ended and abstract, encouraging personal interpretation.

    Overall, the piece is bold, intricate, and highly textured, showcasing the meticulous potential of the humble biro pen in the hands of a skilled artist.

    Both the drawing and frame are in excellent vintage condition. The painting is presented within in a card mount and a black stained wooden frame, and is protected behind perspex. The frame has some very minor scuffing as seen in the photos.

    Enos Lovatt (1937–2018) studied at Burslem School of Art and the Royal College of Art (1959–1962) before becoming Senior Lecturer in Fine Art at Staffordshire Polytechnic until 1992. A prolific artist, he worked in oils, gouache, acrylics, ceramics, and biro, leaving behind thousands of works. He exhibited sporadically, including solo shows in City Museum and Art Gallery in Stoke-on-Trent, one man shows at the Paton and Woodstock Galleries in London and at Stafford Museum and Art Gallery.

    In the early 1990s, Enos lost most of the three middle fingers on his dominant right hand in a lawnmower accident. The biros allowed him to navigate his vivid and unique imagination and bring the thoughts and images in his head to life in their purest form of magic realism. This drawing was created in the early 2000s.

  • All the Angles

    All the Angles

    £500

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A fun and edgy one-off original monoprint presented in a coloured frame, by British artist Olivia Bouzyk.

    This monoprint is created from two individual stencils on different ghost print monoprint plates in two separate colours (a ghost print is when the plate has already gone through the press). Whilst the different layers are already in different shapes, there are additional dialogues between the different components because of the different shapes that appear within the main shapes as a result of the ghost print.

    Olivia works with contrasts in line, colour and form and a sense of harmony is achieved by balancing this series of juxtapositions.

    This print, as with the others, has no intended direction, so it can be hung to suit the viewer’s space/inclinations.

    This monoprint is housed in a vivid green frame that further enhances the artwork within. It is protected behind a layer of perspex. Both frame and artwork are in excellent condition.

    Size:  61.5 x 44 cm (including frame)

  • Arches of the Sea

    Arches of the Sea

    £630

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A mid-century modern painting that features a dreamlike coastal landscape, defined by its geometric abstractions and surreal composition, executed in oil onto board and dated 1948.

    The dominant visual motif consists of overlapping, translucent arch shapes that rise from a calm blue sea, reminiscent of towering, otherworldly rock formations or monumental arches. In the background, stylised islands emerge, silhouetted against a deep blue sky. A small, solitary boat in the foreground adds a human element, emphasising the scale and solitude of the scene.

    The style of the painting blends elements of abstraction and surrealism. The use of clean, overlapping shapes creates a sense of depth and dimension, while the simplified forms hint at both architectural and natural inspiration.

    The brushwork is meticulous and controlled, emphasising sharp edges and smooth colour transitions. The palette is dominated by cool tones, including deep navy blues, teal, and soft mint greens, creating a tranquil and contemplative mood. The interplay of lighter and darker shades enhances the layering effect, while subtle highlights suggest reflections on water.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary wood frame with ridges. The painting has some very minor marks, but is in good condition overall. The frame has some scuffing.

  • City Blocks

    City Blocks

    £725

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A brilliantly executed mid century street scene that captures a pared-back urban landscape viewed through a distinctly modernist lens, painted in oil onto canvas by Swedish artist Kurt Lindon (1910-1985), whose works can be found in the collections at the Stockholm City Museum, Moderna Museet in Stockholm, Gothenburg Art Museum, Linköping Museum, Östersund Museum, Norrköping Art Museum, and the Borås Art Museum

    Low-rise buildings and taller rectangular forms are arranged in a calm, horizontal rhythm, punctuated by a slender vertical tower that anchors the composition. Sparse trees and simplified street elements suggest human presence without overt narrative, lending the scene a quiet, contemplative mood.

    Executed in a restrained modernist style, the painting favours structure and balance over detail. Architectural forms are reduced to blocks of colour, with an emphasis on proportion, negative space, and the interplay between verticals and horizontals. The perspective feels gently flattened, reinforcing the mid-century aesthetic and its departure from strict realism.

    The colour palette is subtle and sophisticated: soft greys, chalky whites, muted blues, olive greens, and warm earthy browns are offset by occasional touches of brick red and mustard. These tonal contrasts create depth while maintaining an overall sense of harmony and calm.

    Brushstrokes are confident yet economical: broad, flat applications of paint define buildings and streets, while lighter, slightly textured strokes add movement and variation across the surface. The paint handling feels deliberate, allowing the composition and colour relationships to carry the emotional weight of the work.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary ridged gilt frame. The painting is in very good vintage condition, and the frame has some scuffs.

    £405

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An expressive and beautifully textured mid-century floral still life painting, executed in oil onto board.

    The composition centers around a bouquet of pink and white hyacinths, carefully arranged in a vase on a table and set against a contrasting coloured backdrop.

    Using a rich colour palette as well as swift and expressive brushstrokes, this still life exudes energy. The artist has also created areas of impasto, applying thick dabs of paint to execute the flowers to build up texture and evoke tactility.

    This oil on board is housed in a wide-profiled gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has very minor scuffs.

  • Cubist Interior with Chair

    Cubist Interior with Chair

    £455

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A compelling mid-century painting that presents an abstracted interior scene rendered in a cubist style, executed in oil onto board and dated 1966 by the established Swedish artist Richard Björklund (1897–1974), whose works have been exhibited in public collections including the National Museum in Stockholm, Moderna Museet in Stockholm, Malmo Museum, Ystads Art Museum, and others.

    The composition is built from interlocking geometric blocks of colour, suggesting architectural forms, furniture, and a seated figure to the right. The artist breaks the interior down into a rhythmic arrangement of rectangles and planes, creating a layered sense of depth while preserving a flattened, modernist aesthetic.

    The palette is dominated by muted mauves, greys, and blacks, enlivened with striking accents of cobalt blue and deep crimson. These colours are applied in confident, opaque blocks, their edges sometimes softened by visible brushstrokes that reveal the artist’s hand. The brushwork is assertive, giving the impression of both structure and spontaneity.

    Hints of a chair, a table, and a figure are discernible but dissolve into abstraction, leaving the viewer to navigate between representation and geometry. This work reflects the mid-century embrace of cubist abstraction, balancing formal rigour with expressive colour.

    This oil on board is presented in a complementary silver painted frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some scuffs as well as losses as shown in the photos.

  • Cubist Street

    Cubist Street

    £590

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A mid-century painting presents a quiet street rendered through a modernist lens, where architectural forms unfold along a gently receding road, and  executed in oil onto board.

    Arched doorways, small staircases, and balcony details hint at a southern European setting, while stylised trees punctuate the scene with a sense of warmth and calm. The composition draws the eye inward, inviting the viewer to wander through this tranquil, almost dreamlike streetscape.

    This structured work shows clear Cubist and geometric abstract influences, particularly in the faceted treatment of buildings and ground planes. Forms are broken into angular segments and overlapping geometric shapes, flattening perspective while simultaneously creating depth.

    A muted yet expressive palette anchors the composition, with warm terracotta, blush pink, sandy beige, and soft browns tones contrasted against cool greys and dusty blues. Accents of green in the foliage introduce freshness and visual rhythm.

    Brushstrokes are visible and purposeful, applied in broad, confident planes rather than fine detail. The layered paint application enhances the faceted Cubist structure, with tonal shifts used to suggest light, shadow, and architectural depth. The surface retains a gently textured, painterly quality that adds warmth and movement to the geometric composition.

    This oil on board is presented in a complementary wood frame with an inner linen lining. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has a few minor scuffs.

    A simple yet very effective abstract composition in oil, painted onto canvas.

    A set of bright abstract forms sit against a black background, teasing our eyes into an optical illusion. These elements excite the imagination – depending on the viewer various subjective interpretations can be made. Aside from any interpretation, the coloured forms are in themselves fascinating to look at due to the striking juxtaposition between them and the dark background.

    The frame is housed in a simple red frame which adds to its striking effect. Both painting and frame are in good vintage condition.

  • Fragments of the City

    Fragments of the City

    £485

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A captivating mid-century modernist painting that depicts a stylised urban landscape, characterised by a series of geometric forms representing rooftops, buildings, and water, executed in oil onto board.

    Modernist in its ethos with a focus on the artist’s exploration of form and abstraction, the scene captures the essence of a townscape, possibly a riverside or harbour area, rendered in a semi-abstract manner. The architectural forms have been fragmented into angular, interlocking planes, and the cubist influence is evident in the faceted representation of buildings and their integration into the surrounding landscape.

    The palette consists of soft, muted tones, including pastel shades that harmonise with deeper hues of brown and red. The subtle blending of colours creates a cohesive and atmospheric effect, while the subdued tones evoke a tranquil, contemplative mood.

    The brushwork is expressive, with short, layered strokes that create a sense of depth and movement. The overlapping strokes enhance the impression of architectural complexity and spatial rhythm.

    This oil on board is housed in a very well-suited distressed style grey painted wood frame with an inner gilt window. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Geometric Harbour

    Geometric Harbour

    £565

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A gentle and brilliantly executed mid-century modern painting that features an abstracted harbour scene, painted in oil onto board and dated 1960.

    The composition likely depicts a small fishing village with moored boats and angular buildings nestled along the shore. Containing elements of geometric abstraction, the forms of the boats and  architectural elements have been deconstructed and simplified into an arrangement of sharp lines and faceted shapes.

    The colour palette is an elegant blend of muted earth tones, including yellow, deep green, soft blue, and beige, creating a harmonious, atmospheric effect. The boats are rendered in stark white, drawing the viewer’s eye toward the center of the composition.

    Executed in a restrained yet confident manner, the brushstrokes are smooth and blended, with subtle textural variations that enhance depth and structure.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame with an inner linen lining and white border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some surface marks at the bottom right of its inner border.

  • Geometry in Grey

    Geometry in Grey

    £540

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A mesmerising mid-century geometric abstract painting composed of layered angular forms that appear to float and overlap within a carefully balanced composition, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The artist explores spatial tension through a series of intersecting planes – rectangles, trapezoids, and irregular polygons – that shift in opacity and tone, creating a rhythmic sense of movement and depth.

    Rendered in a restrained monochromatic palette of cool greys, whites, and deep charcoal, the work exudes a quiet architectural precision. The translucent layering of shapes introduces a sense of transparency and lightness, while the hard-edged forms retain a strong graphic clarity.

    The brushwork is smooth and deliberate, with even application of paint that emphasises the structural purity of the design rather than gestural expression. The artist’s refined control of tone and balance reflects the mid-century fascination with form, proportion, and visual harmony.

    This oil on canvas comes unframed, and is in excellent vintage condition. It is on stretched canvas so is ready to hang but if you would like us to help you with framing, you can contact us here.

  • Light Over the Valley

    Light Over the Valley

    Sold

    SOLD

    A serene mid-century modern semi-abstract landscape that distils the countryside into a harmonious arrangement of colour, shape, and light, executed in oil onto board.

    Rolling fields unfold across the foreground, leading the eye towards a tranquil body of water and a scattering of farm buildings nestled beneath distant blue-grey hills. A small stand of stylised trees anchors the composition, lending both rhythm and balance to the expansive scene.

    Executed in a distinctly Scandinavian modernist manner, the painting favours simplification over detail, reducing the landscape to broad geometric forms and carefully calibrated planes of colour.

    The palette is soft and restrained, dominated by creamy whites, muted sage greens, pale yellows, and layered blues that recede gently into the horizon. Subtle touches of lavender-grey and warm earth tones add depth and atmosphere, while the luminous sky bathes the entire scene in a delicate, diffused light.

    Brushwork is controlled, with smooth, flattened areas of paint creating a velvety surface. Gentle layering and subtle tonal shifts provide depth without disrupting the composition’s calm simplicity.

    This oil on board is presented in a complementary wood frame with a wide white-painted inner mount. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Morning at the Window

    Morning at the Window

    £445

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A expressive mid-century interior scene that captures a solitary figure standing beside an open window, absorbed in a moment of reflection, executed in oil onto board.

    Beyond the window, the simple geometry of a neighbouring house roof cuts against a pale blue sky, while within the room a potted geranium and draped linens lend warmth and domestic intimacy. The composition balances interior and exterior worlds, creating a contemplative atmosphere that feels personal.

    Executed in a distinctly modernist manner, the painting demonstrates the restrained sensibilities of mid-century art. Forms are simplified and gently abstracted, with the figure rendered through broad planes of colour rather than detailed modelling. The artist places emphasis on mood and structure, allowing light, shape, and spatial relationships to convey emotion.

    The palette is soft and muted, comprising dusty greens, pale greys, warm creams, and chalky whites, punctuated by the rich terracotta reds of the flowers and the deep brown roofline outside. Subtle passages of pale blue sky bring freshness to the composition, while delicate pink undertones soften the interior light.

    Brushwork is confident yet sensitive, with visible painterly strokes lending texture and movement across the surface. Layers of paint are applied loosely, creating an appealing interplay between solidity and atmosphere.

    This oil on board is presented in an attractive gilt frame with a wide linen-covered mount and an inner white slip. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Profile in Burgundy

    Profile in Burgundy

    £455

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An intriguing and emotive mid-century figurative portrait that presents a solitary figure rendered in profile, her face reduced to essential forms and softened contours, and executed in oil onto canvas.

    The composition balances intimacy and mystery, with the subject appearing suspended in quiet contemplation. Rather than pursuing realism, the artist distils the figure into broad planes of colour and shape, creating a deeply expressive and psychologically charged image.

    The painting displays strong influences of modernist and expressionist portraiture. The elongated profile, simplified facial features, and restrained detailing place emphasis on mood and presence rather than likeness. The figure emerges from an abstracted background, where space dissolves into textured fields of paint.

    The palette is beautifully subdued, dominated by earthy taupes, muted mauves, smoky greys, and deep charcoal tones. Rich burgundy and crimson accents in the garment provide warmth and visual weight, while subtle flashes of pale green and ivory animate the background.

    Brushwork is confident and expressive throughout. Thick, painterly passages and visible impasto lend the surface a tactile quality, while loose, gestural strokes soften edges and allow forms to dissolve into one another. Scraped and layered paint textures reveal the artist’s process, contributing to the work’s raw emotional depth.

    This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary frame featuring a natural light wood outer moulding with a wide linen-covered inner mount. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. There is some wear to the outer edges of the frame, commensurate with age.

    Remnants of Civilisation

    £410

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An original abstract painting, executed in oil onto cradled panel.

    The painting depicts a landscape theme and explores the concepts of art and architecture. Flat planes in a variety of contrasting colours are arranged together, some intersecting and overlaying, creating an illusion of depth and perspective. These colours are rich and vivid, creating a bright and playful energy. Although smooth and matte in its finish, the artist has included areas where we are able to see the application and texturing of the paint. Juxtaposing the hard angled lines, is a row of scalloping that adds a wonderful detail and draws our eye in.

    This oil on cradled panel is ready to hang and does not require a frame. It is in excellent condition.

  • Seaside Conversation

    Seaside Conversation

    £615

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A beautifully pared-back mid-century coastal scene oil painting by Swedish artist Eric Elfvén (1921–2008), whose works have been exhibited in public collections including the Moderna Museet in Stockholm, Jönköping Museum, Borås Art Museum, and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.

    The painting captures two figures seated on a bench overlooking a tranquil waterfront. In the distance, a solitary lighthouse rises against the horizon, acting as a quiet focal point within the composition. The painting evokes a sense of stillness and companionship, with the figures absorbed in the calm atmosphere of the shoreline.

    Executed in a distinctly modernist style, the composition is reduced to simplified geometric forms and broad areas of colour. The artist prioritises shape, balance, and mood over fine detail, creating an image that feels both spontaneous and carefully structured.

    The palette is warm and harmonious, combining sunlit browns, sandy terracottas, soft creams, and cool blues. Deep olive greens and charcoal tones anchor the composition, while the expansive blue sea and sky introduce a sense of openness and light.

    Brushwork is confident with flat, deliberate applications of paint defining forms through blocks of colour rather than line. Visible brushstrokes add texture and vitality, while subtle shifts in tone create depth within the simplified landscape. The result is a striking balance between abstraction and representation, conveying the essence of a coastal moment with remarkable clarity.

    This oil on board is presented in a complementary ridged gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some small areas of paint loss but this does not detract from the overall appearance.

  • Sunlit Forms

    Sunlit Forms

    £585

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A richly textured and uplifting abstract painting, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1970.

    The painting unfolds as a rhythmic interplay of geometric and organic forms, arranged in a loosely interlocking composition that suggests shifting landscapes or architectural fragments without ever settling into literal depiction. The artist has layered broad, rounded shapes against more angular blocks, creating a dynamic sense of balance and movement that keeps the eye travelling across the canvas.

    Executed in a distinctly modernist style, the work embraces bold simplification, flat planes, and an intuitive arrangement of colour. The palette is warm and radiant: mustard yellow, ochre, amber, and soft olive green mingle with muted grey and off-white, giving the painting both energy and groundedness. These colours sit side by side in harmonious tension, guided by a thoughtful arrangement of stripes and subtle tonal shifts.

    The brushwork is expressive and tactile, with visible texture and confident strokes that bring a sculptural quality to the paint surface. Areas of impasto catch the light softly, revealing the artist’s hand and the physicality of the medium.

    This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary gold painted wood frame. There is some craquelure as shown in the close up photos, and the canvas is slight uneven. Overall, the painting is in stable condition, and these characteristics do not impact the visual appeal of the work.

  • Sunlit Landing

    Sunlit Landing

    £715

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A quietly evocative mid-century interior painting that captures a moment of stillness within a domestic space. executed in oil onto canvas.

    The composition centres on a staircase landing with painted balustrades, illuminated by the soft glow of sunlight streaming through unseen windows. Reflections of the window panes dance across the wall, transforming an otherwise ordinary architectural setting into a contemplative study of light, shadow, and geometry.

    Executed in a restrained realist style with subtle modernist sensibilities, the painting demonstrates the fascination with everyday spaces and atmospheric mood. The artist has reduced the scene to a series of intersecting planes and angular forms, allowing the architecture itself to become the subject. The absence of figures heightens the sense of solitude and invites the viewer to inhabit the space imaginatively.

    The palette is beautifully muted, comprising smoky greys, warm taupes, deep umber browns, and soft sage-green tones. The luminous cream-coloured reflections from the windows provide a gentle focal point, contrasting with the darker vertical shadows that anchor the composition. These carefully balanced tones create a tranquil and introspective atmosphere.

    Brushwork is controlled and understated, with smooth, blended applications of paint that soften transitions between light and shadow. Delicate layering and subtle tonal gradations lend depth to the walls and architectural elements, while the balustrades are rendered with slightly firmer, more defined strokes. The overall surface possesses a calm, velvety quality that enhances the painting’s meditative character.

    This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary warm honey-toned wood frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has small areas of scuffing.

    The Colourful Harbour

    £425

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking modernist coastal landscape captures a harbour scene rendered through simplified architectural forms and broad planes of colour, executed in oil onto board and dated 1971.

    Fishing boats rest calmly along the water’s edge, framed by buildings and sheds that sit beneath a pale, expansive sky. The composition balances structure and stillness beautifully, evoking the peaceful rhythm of a seaside port at rest.

    Executed in a distinctly modernist style, the painting leans into geometric abstraction while retaining a strong sense of place. The buildings are reduced into angular blocks and softened silhouettes, giving the scene a calm atmosphere.

    The palette is wonderfully soft yet vibrant, featuring dusty coral pinks, muted lilacs, pale blues, teal greens, mustard tones, and deep navy accents. These colours reflect gently across the water, creating a serene interplay of light and shadow throughout the composition.

    Brushwork is controlled and deliberate, with smooth layered applications of paint contrasted against sharper linear details in the masts, rooftops, and harbour edges. The flattened treatment of form and carefully balanced tonal areas lend the work a refined, contemplative quality characteristic of mid-century coastal modernism.

    This oil on board is presented in a complementary frame with a linen-lined border and gilt inner trim. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has minor age-related wear.

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking geometric composition in acrylic, painted onto card and dated ’23.

    This painting features three abstracted, geometric human figures rendered in a bold, angular Cubist style. The artist uses sharp-edged shapes and planes to construct the bodies, with a palette dominated by earthy ochres, deep reds, purples, blacks, and cool blues.

    Each figure is stylized, built from interlocking triangles, rectangles, and trapezoids. Their faces are simplified and mask-like, and their postures suggest movement or conversation, with overlapping arms and angled legs.

    Overall, the composition emphasizes form, structure, and colour harmony, inviting the viewer to focus on the interplay of geometric shapes and bold contrasts.

  • Urban Blocks

    Urban Blocks

    £685

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking mid-century abstract cityscape rendered in a restrained muted palette, executed in oil onto board.

    The painting captures an imagined urban landscape reduced to essential form and shadow. Angular blocks suggest rooftops, facades, and stacked buildings, layered tightly across a sloping terrain beneath a distant hill.

    The artist has used deliberate, textured brushstrokes to create architectural weight and spatial tension. The colour scheme leans toward steely greys, deep charcoal, slate blue, and hints of taupe, giving the composition a quiet, contemplative tone. Despite its abstraction, the work holds a firm sense of structure and rhythm, reflecting mid-century modernist ideals of simplification and form.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary wood frame with an inner linen border. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Winter Reeds

    Winter Reeds

    £405

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A tranquil and subdued mid-century landscape painting that captures an atmospheric wetland scene, executed in oil onto canvas.

    In this painting, slender reeds rise delicately from a mist-covered foreground and distant trees emerge softly through a veil of fog. The composition feels wonderfully restrained and contemplative, balancing open space with bold dark landforms that drift horizontally across the canvas like quiet islands in thawing winter waters.

    Executed in a gestural modernist style, the painting relies on mood and suggestion rather than strict detail. A muted palette of soft sage green, smoky grey, ivory and deep charcoal creates a beautifully subdued harmony, while hints of earthy browns in the reeds add warmth and vertical movement to the composition. The brushwork is fluid and expressive throughout  – broad sweeping strokes soften the landscape into abstraction, contrasted by fine linear marks that give the reeds an elegant calligraphic quality. The result is a painting that feels both tranquil and dynamic, with an almost poetic sense of stillness and atmosphere.

    This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary wood frame with silver-toned inner and outer detailing. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Woman with a Red Flower

    Woman with a Red Flower

    £965

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A quiet and introspective mid-century modernist figurative painting, executed in oil onto canvas by the established Swedish artist Fabian Lundqvist (1913-1989), whose works have been represented in many public collections in Sweden.

    The painting depicts a solitary female figure standing frontally against a simplified geometric backdrop. Her elongated neck, pale face, and slender hands lend the composition a quiet elegance, while the single red flower held delicately at her side introduces a note of tenderness and mystery. The figure’s direct gaze and still posture create an introspective mood, inviting the viewer to contemplate her inner world.

    Executed in a refined mid-century modernist semi-abstract style, the artist has reduced the figure to essential forms, favouring flat planes of colour and simplified anatomy over realism. The composition recalls the poetic restraint of European modernist portraiture, where emotional presence is conveyed through shape, colour, and balance rather than intricate detail.

    The palette is beautifully restrained, centred around warm dusty rose, terracotta, and deep cocoa-brown tones. The figure’s dress harmonises with the surrounding background, creating a subtle tonal unity, while her ivory-white skin provides striking contrast. The small crimson flower acts as a focal point, drawing the eye and adding a vivid accent to the otherwise muted composition.

    Brushwork is smooth and controlled, with broad, even applications of paint that emphasise the painting’s flat decorative qualities. Subtle variations in texture and tone reveal the artist’s hand without disrupting the calm surface.

    This oil on canvas is presented in an complementary gilt frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Woodland Overtures

    Woodland Overtures

    £470

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking contemporary Cornish abstract painting, executed in oil on board and dated 2024.

    Abstract in nature and titled ‘Woodland Overtures’, the composition is an interplay of bold, curvilinear forms that suggest the intertwining of trees, foliage, and natural pathways, reinterpreted through a modernist lens.

    The palette is rich, featuring warm ochres, blacks, soft lilacs, and off-whites, punctuated by a striking red accent that commands attention at the painting’s core. Delicate red and black contour lines weave through the forms, adding a sense of structure and movement to the composition.

    The brushstrokes vary between smooth, controlled edges and more spontaneous, gestural elements, giving depth and dynamism to the work.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary white frame. The painting has a very tiny area of paint loss at its right side as shown in close up. The frame has some very light marks but this does not detract from its overall appearance.

    Size: 50 x 52 cm (including frame)

  • Woodland Rhythm

    Woodland Rhythm

    £775

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A dynamic mid-century artwork that can be read as an abstracted woodland scene, where slender tree trunks and clustered canopies are distilled into rhythmic, angular forms, executed in oil onto board and dated 1955.

    The vertical lines suggest trunks or branches, while the overlapping triangular and faceted shapes evoke dense foliage catching light at different angles. Rather than a literal forest, it feels like a memory or impression of one – fragmented, layered, and alive with quiet movement.

    The style leans into geometric abstraction with strong cubist influence, where natural forms are broken down into interlocking planes. The composition feels almost musical in its repetition – trees rising and overlapping, creating a sense of depth without traditional perspective. There’s a balance between structure and spontaneity, as the eye moves through the clustered forms like walking through a stylised grove.

    The palette is rich yet earthy: dominated by browns, mustard yellows, olive greens, and warm rust tones that suggest autumnal foliage or filtered forest light. Darker browns and charcoal lines anchor the composition, acting as trunks or branches that give structure to the scene.

    Brushwork remains controlled and deliberate, with paint applied in flat, confident planes that emphasise form over texture. Subtle variations in tone and the visible weave of the canvas add warmth and tactility, reinforcing the painting’s grounded, organic feel despite its abstraction.

    This oil on board is housed complementary layered wooden frame with pronounced grain, as well as a cream-toned inner border. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.
