  • On the Metro

    Sold

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A large and playful mid century  British modernist oil composition of several figures on the metro in Paris, painted onto artist’s board.

    The colourful composition has a fun, childlike quality to it that makes it  a joy to look at. Although seemingly simple and ‘naive’ at first glace, it is in fact a very well executed painting. The composition and use of colours is perfectly balanced, and very satisfying to look at. Despite the lack of realistic details or colouring, we very quickly understand what we’re looking at. The artist has captured an everyday scene of rush hour on the Metro, but has incorporated a wonderful expressionist style to the piece.

    The painting is housed in a gilt frame with an inner linen lined border. The painting is in very good vintage condition. The frame has some minor scuffing to its edges.

  • Sandy Bay

    Sold

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very restful mid century modernist oil coastalscape composition, painted onto canvas.

    A soft palette is combined with punches of darker more vivid colour, applied in broad, expressive brushstrokes that capture the atmosphere of the coastal scape perfectly. There is a lovely sense of movement and light – we can imagine the sound of the wind blowing through the light grass and sand, and soft sound of the waves hitting the shore of the bay. This painting would make such a lovely peaceful spot to rest one’s tired eyes on.

    The picture is housed in a linen lined frame with an inner gilt window that illuminates the painting beautifully. The painting is in very good vintage condition. There is some minor scuffing and age toning to frame, commensurate with age.

    A beautifully vivid and striking oil composition of a lady at a market stall selling flowers, painted onto board.

    A florist sits under the shelter of her stall, with an array of flowers laid out in front of her. The painting has been executed in an expressionist manner – the colouring is wonderfully intense and non-naturalistic,  the brushwork is free, and the paint application is generous and textured.

    The painting is housed in a double accent gilt frame with an inner linen lined border. Both artwork and frame are in good vintage condition.

  • Nightfall

    Sold

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A moody and atmospheric mid century modernist landscape, painted in oil onto canvas.

    Upon first glance, our eyes are drawn to the darker and moody shades on the bottom half of the painting, and it then moves to the lighter muted shades on the top. As we take time to study its form, we can just about discern a house peeking out above a hilly landscape, as nightfall sets.

    Expressive, painterly and unrestrained brushstrokes fill the canvas, and the artist has added a wonderful textural element to focus our attention on the dramatic composition.

    The painting is housed in its original mid century frame with several contrasting windows, efficiently drawing our attention inward towards the painting. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Quirk

    Sold

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A quirky mid century modernist still life oil composition, painted onto board in 1964.

    This still life features odd angles and skewed perspective, asking us to look and look again. The composition carries many little playful details that are fun to explore and discover. Everything about its layout is somewhat stilted and skewed, for example the table sits at an angle where technically everything should slide off it, and the table is not quite rectangular. The shadows of the objects don’t quite fit either. The floor boards that sit below the table are in a different colour at every section, representing the way the light hits the floor differently. The top edge of the window sits at an angle that is not in line with the curtain rod above. Very interestingly, out the window we see a wall that has a arched shape exit where we can see the view of the seascape beyond. There are more details to discover, but all in all this surreal still life carries so many interesting features that are a delight.

    The painting is housed in a gilt frame with a winner linen lined  border.  Both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.

  • Siesta

    Sold

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A large and powerful mid century modernist oil composition, painted on board.

    This painting is very striking – large flat planes of colour fit together to create this composition of two seated figures on a coastline, with boats and buildings in the distance. The artist has left out all realistic details, focusing instead on the formal qualities such as shape, form and colour.  The shapes are all very much rounded, creating a general softness to the piece that makes it very appealing to look at it.

    The painting is housed in a wood frame that suits it well. Both painting and frame are in good vintage condition.

  • Delight

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A rich and vibrant landscape composition, executed in oil onto board, and painted in 1957.

    This nature landscape composition depicts a lush meadow sitting amidst a forest in the foreground, with a cliff in the background and mountains in the horizon.

    Executed in a fauvist style, the artist has flattened the forms and has enhanced the colours of the natural world by using a plethora of vivid and saturated colours that harmonise wonderfully together. Distinct energetic and intuitive brushstrokes also fill the canvas, adding a light textural quality and imbuing the work with a sense of dynamism.

    This painting is housed in a complementary deep profile wood frame with visible grain. Both frame and painting are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Dusk

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A large and very atmospheric mid century modernist landscape in oil, painted onto canvas.

    This moody, expressionist painting features an array of textured detailing, showing off the artist’s mastery of the medium.  Notwithstanding the dark and deep colour palette, the artist has skilfully created several layers of blended colour that give the painting an illumination from within that was hard to capture in the photos and is much more pertinent in real life. There is a glow from the painting that suggests that the scene is of sunset, just before the landscape loses its light completely. We love the little details such as the textured dots of pink applied to the lower half of the composition, alluding to little flowers in the grassy meadow.

    This brilliant painting is housed in a gilt frame with green highlights around its outer edges. There are several inner windows, both linen lined and gilt. The painting and frame are both in very good condition. The linen section has some minor age toning, commensurate with age.

    A striking mid century black & white modernist portrait painting, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The artist has used a monochromatic colour scheme, displaying an outstanding play of shadow of light to produce this overall very well-balanced painting.

    The subtle colour palette of this painting would make it a good fit in many interior settings.

  • Horses on the Meadow

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A beautifully executed mid century composition in oil, painted in 1949.

    In this picture, we see a a group of animals including a horse grazing on the meadow. Long, gestural brushstrokes fill the canvas with thick paint, creating a wonderfully textured effect.  The artists skilful and expressive brushwork blends the paint beautifully to create the three dimensional forms of the animals. It is clear that the artist has incorporated more than just the visual scene before him – we get a sense of the way the light hits the meadow, the slight wind in the air, the movement of the sky above and the blades of the grass below.

    This excellent painting is housed in a solid wood frame which adds to its ‘country’ appeal. Both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.

    A rich and dynamic mid century modernist abstract mixed media composition, painted onto board.

  • Chalk

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A simple yet very effective mid century abstract modernist composition in oil, painted on to canvas.

  • Cottages on a Hill

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A very well executed and detailed mid century modernist composition in oil, painted onto board.

    There is a wonderful sense of tenderness to the picture – the artist has used fairly subdued colour palette in this composition, carefully painting in the cottages that sit on top of a hill. We love the contrast between the larger more expressive swathes of colour that he has used on the hill versus the little cottages that sit on top of it that are far more delicate and detailed. They sit to the right of picture, punctuating the composition perfectly and providing balance to the overall layout of the scene.

    The painting is housed in a very well suited gilt frame with an inner linen lined border. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Dahlias

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A large and very expressive mid century floral still life composition in oil, painted in 1941.

    Reminiscent of still lifes by the well known painter Vincent Van Gogh, this floral oil also features similar characteristics such as the vibrant contrasts of complementary colours, and short and swift expressive brushwork. In this picture, we see a bouquet of dahlias sitting in an aquamarine vase, and behind that sits a green leaved potted plant. On the bottom right, a small bowl punctuates and balances out the composition. Studying the painting up close, we can see how the artist has used criss-cross brushwork to create depth and three dimensionality, as well as capture the effects of light. There is a wonderful sense of movement and dynamism in the picture. and it would make a striking addition to an interior space.

    This large painting is housed in a robust light coloured frame that suits it very well. The painting is in very good vintage condition. The frame has a loss to the top edge, as shown. It is otherwise in a good and stable condition.

  • Seated Figure

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A very well executed oil portrait, painted onto canvas in 1966.

    Painted in an expressionist style, broad and painterly brushstrokes make up this striking composition of a seated figure. The artist has left out realistic details,  focusing instead on the shape, form and lines of the figure. He has captured the way the light falls on the figure, using an almost post-impressionist colour palette to depict the areas of shadow on light on the figure’s coat. The artist has left the background indistinct, but has used a palette that plays off the colours on the figure wonderfully. There is a very harmonious balance in the overall composition of this painting, making it a real pleasure to look at.

    The painting is housed in dark brown frame with a an inner linen lined window. Both frame and painting are in excellent vintage condition. Please note that the lighter looking areas in the photos are not to do with any issues in the painting, but due instead to glare from natural light when taking the photos.

  • Austere

    Sold

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A seemingly simple yet very striking mid century modernist still life in oil, painted onto board.

    A group of unpretentious and unostentatious objects sit stoically atop a table.  The artist draws our attention to the simple, clean shapes, set against the angular lines of the placemats underneath them, as well as the restrained colour palette. These everyday objects that are usually given no notice, are given pride of place in this composition, forcing us to enjoy the beauty of their simplicity, from the curve of the body of the tall vessel, to the juxtaposition of the object’s colours.

    The painting is housed in a green wood frame with an inner linen lined border. The colours of the frame match perfectly with the colours of the painting, further enhancing it.

    There is a small surface paint loss to painting as shown in the images, but it is overall in a good vintage condition. The frame has some nicks and scuffs to its edges, and there is age toning to the linen border.

  • Coastal Cliff

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A large and tranquil mid-century modernist coastal scape composition painted in 1957 and executed in oil onto canvas.

    In this picturesque scene of cliffs by a coast, the artist has made a conscious decision not to focus on realistic details and has reconstructed this composition by reducing the forms down to coloured angular shapes with dark lines as well as painterly brushstrokes.

    Darker muted colours of green, yellow and blue that have been used to depict the cliffs with lush greenery dominate the right side of the painting, and lighter pastel shades of blues and beige depicting the water, sky and sand fill the left side of the painting. The combination of the muted and pastel shades add a very calming and soothing effect to the painting.

    This large painting is housed in a stunning frame with visible grain, and has an inner gilt as well as linen lining. There are 2 tiny spots of paint loss to the left side of the work, but overall, the painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.

  • Red Quarry

    Sold

    Free UK, Europe & Singapore shipping.

    A very well executed and textured mid century modernist semi-abstract composition in oil, painted onto board.

    Painted in shades of sanguine, the artist has reduced the landscape of the quarry down to the outline of forms, focusing on the shape, texture, and line of the rocks and the ground. Punctuating the centre of the composition is a green tree, which brings balance and a sense of depth to the landscape.

    Housed in its original mid century frame with a dark wood outer border and an inner linen lined window, this painting is in very good vintage condition. There are some minor scuffs to the frame but these do not detract from the overall attractiveness of the piece.
