  • 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.

  • Winter Birch

    Sold

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An exceptionally executed and very detailed mid century modernist landscape, painted in oil in 1945.

    This painting is an absolute joy to look at, with a wonderful array of delicate details. There is a softness to the piece, created through the use of gentle, short intricate brushwork and a mellow palette.  A wooded landscape filled with silver birch trees leads our eyes inward to a river to the right side of the composition.  Little white flowers dot around the base of the trees, and a background of soft brown alludes to the woods going on far into the distance.

    This picturesque and beautifully painted picture is housed in an equally stunning frame. This robust frame has a very deep profile and lovely distressed effect. Both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.

  • Woman at Desk

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A beautiful and gentle mid-century modernist portrait, executed in oil.

    The composition depicts a female figure in a green dress who has a book placed on her lap. Set against a blueish-grey background, she is sitting on a chair and is beside a brown desk.

    Although an everyday scene, there is something alluring about the simplicity of the scene of which the artist has wonderfully captured.

    All realistic details have been omitted, and the artist has simplified the composition down to painterly elements such as shape, form and colour. In addition to using a restrained soft colour palette, he has also intentionally left the canvas surrounding the female’s silhouette unpainted, adding character to the piece.

    This oil on canvas laid on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame with an inner linen lining. The painting is in very good vintage condition. There are areas of scuff and paint loss across the frame, particularly at the right side.

    Size: 67 x 51 cm (including frame)

  • Drying the Nets

    Sold

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A wonderfully painted everyday scene of a lively fishing village in Skane, Sweden, painted in 1946.

    It is a cloudy day, and a group of fishermen have just returned from sea. As they are assessing their catch of the day, washing their fishing nets, and hanging it out to dry, a woman and and her child curiously come by to see what they’ve caught.

    Painted in rich pastel tones of purple, blue and pink, the colours are vibrant and welcoming, and harmonise well together. The expressionistic and forceful brushstrokes that have been executed confidently imbue the painting with much vigour and liveliness.

    Painted in oil on to board, it is housed in an ornate gilt frame. The painting is in very good vintage condition. The frame has some staining to the bottom right edge, as shown in images.

  • Harbour Sunrise

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A really stunning mid century marina view composition, painted in oil onto canvas.

    The artist has worked in a post-impressionist style, skilfully using non realistic colours that are more expressive and personal to convey the way the light touches the landscape and its resulting reflections. As a result, we see an almost kaleidoscope like array of colours in the composition. The composition is grounded by the deeper, darker colours along the bottom half, which also has larger areas of colours compared to the more horizontal brushwork we see in the upper half of the composition.

    This wonderful landscape is housed in its original mid century gilt frame with an inner linen lined border. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    Size: 53 x 62 cm (including frame)

    Free UK, Europe & Singapore shipping.

  • Mountain Lake

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A semi abstract landscape view of a mountainous lake scene, painted in oil in 1975. There is an almost sketch-like, unfinished feel to this painting, which adds to its abstract quality. Yet when we take our time to inspect the painting, it is evident that the artist was very intentional with his style. Large, expressive strokes fill the canvas with swathes of colour, with some several areas painted thinly, allowing the texture of the canvas to show through.

    The painting is housed in its original mid century wood frame with reddish brown tints and an inner fabric lined border. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Nude with Blue

    Sold

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A sensitively painted mid century oil, painted onto board.

    A female figure is depicted sitting on a wooden chair, her gaze turned away from us. Expressive and distinct brushwork has been skilfully used to paint this composition – the artist has successfully captured the form of the body, as well as the way the light hits the figure’s skin. Juxtaposed against the neutral and beige tones of the figure is ablue fabric that has been hung over the chair. This pop of colour not only creates a focal point for our eyes, but also brings a cohesiveness to the composition.

    There is a timelessness to this picture that will make it a fine addition to any interior.

    The painting is housed in a wide profile frame with silver highlights. The painting is in very good vintage condition. The frame has scattered areas of paint loss, as seen in the photos.

  • River Bridge

    Sold

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A small but very impactful and emotive river bridge composition in oil, painted on board.

    This moody painting depicts a lone figure walking along the river, with a large bridge in front of him. The composition features small and delicately painted details that are wonderful to explore. At first glance the picture looks like a dark image of a bridge, but as we take the time to look closely, several details begin to make themselves apparent. – we see the brown stairway to the right, we see little figures and even what looks like a truck going across the bridge, as well as the bridge crossing. The way the artist has used expressive brushstrokes and colour blending to paint in the stairway as well as the reflection of the water and the night sky  shows off his mastery of the medium.

    The painting is housed in a beautiful wide profile gilt frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Road Trip

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A panoramic and ambient large semi abstract mid century modernist composition in oil, painted onto board.

    As we let our eyes rest on this painting, it takes us on a journey to a place far away. The view point of the composition is reminiscent of being on a road trip, staring out the window looking at the panoramic landscape laid out before us. A long never-ending road stretches out in front of us, with not a soul in sight. There is a softness and quietness to this painting which makes it such a wonderful picture to transport our minds elsewhere. The simple yet very effective composition combined with the  light and minimal colour palette has a meditative effect.

    This large oil on canvas is housed in a very complementary mid century frame with a dark outer edge, and linen lined border and an inner gilt window. It is very effective in drawing our sight inward into the painting, enhancing its meditative effect. Both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.

  • The Dinner Table

    Sold

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking and richly coloured oil on canvas, painted in 1968. Painted in an expressionist style, dynamic and distinct brushstrokes full of texture and colour make up this still life composition. A large arrangement of flowers sit on a table, with 3 candles behind it, and a plate and wine glass alongside.. The background is made up of expressive brushstrokes, and areas of impasto (where the paint if applied thickly such that it stands proud from the surface) gives this painting wonderful depth and texture.

    The painting is housed in a simple wooden frame. Both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.

  • Walking Home

    Sold

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very well executed and striking landscape scene, painted in oil onto canvas.

    This framed composition depicts an evening scene of figure walking down a lane towards white fronted house. The artist has used angular lines and flat planes of colour in a restrained palette. The artist has left out realistic details, focussing instead on the lines and forms of pictured scene. The painting features a very skilful balance of forms, and layering and blending of colour. It has a sense of nostalgia to it that is very charming.

    It is housed in its original mid century frame with gilt borders. The painting has some tiny spots of surface paint loss, but these spots are not obvious unless inspected closely. We have included close ups of these areas. The paint layer is stable overall. The frame is also in very good vintage condition.

  • On the Fields

    Sold

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A large and very confidently executed modernist composition in oil, framed and ready to hang.

    Rich and saturated colours fill the canvas, composed in rectangular blocks of contrasting colours. A group of figures are seen seated in the field, presumably taking a rest from a hard day’s work in the field. Both the landscape as well as the figures have been reduced to an outline of forms – the artist has focused on the formal qualities of the scene, emphasising form, colour, shape and line over any realistic details. The result of this is an almost completely abstract composition in non realistic colours that captures the imagination.

    This excellent painting is housed in a wide profile gilt frame that illuminates the painting beautifully. Both frame and painting are in very good vintage condition.

  • Riverbank

    Sold

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A restful and well-balanced mid-century nature landscape composition of a river bank, executed in oil onto board.

    The artist has used a range of pastel colours – lighter shades filling the top half depicting the leaves and the sky, and slightly darker tones filling the bottom half depicting the river bank and surrounding pasture. There is a wonderful harmony in the colours and it imbues the overall work with a soothing effect.

    Broad and expressive brushstrokes have been applied in a quick and confident manner, and the artist has wonderfully captured the reflections of the trees on the water surface.

    This oil on board is housed in its original mid century wood frame that has a wide profile. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Tilth

    Sold

    Free UK, Europe & Singapore shipping.

    A very well executed modernist landscape composition in oil, painted in 1978.

    This charming oil study depicts vast farmland with cottages on the horizon. The artist captures the characteristic cloudy skies of the British countryside and matches it with the rich browns of the ploughed fields. The painting has a wonderful textural quality that not only adds depth to the painting but also captures the earthy and organic character of the natural landscape.

    The painting is housed in a distressed silver frame which suits it perfectly. Both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition. The frame has some minor scuffs but this is in keeping with its vintage style.

  • Cadence

    Sold

    Free UK, Europe and Singapore shipping.

    A very large and distinctive mid century abstract oil composition, painted onto canvas.

    The artist has not shied away from a dark and heavy palette, applying long and textured brushstrokes in varying shades of black, grey, and brown. The piece is filled with emotion – there is a sense of heaviness and moodiness to it which is just brilliant. We get a sense that the artist is painting in a cathartic manner, expressing his inner feelings onto the canvas. The way some areas of the paint has been allowed to drip down is particularly poignant too.

    This wonderful oil on canvas is housed in a simple wood frame.  There is some light scattered areas of craquelure across the painting commensurate with its age, but the paint is in very stable condition overall.

  • Emergence

    Sold

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A captivating abstract work of art that explores the flow of brushstrokes and colours in arrested motion.

    Swift, confident and fluid strokes and splashes of paint fill the canvas with energy, giving it a wonderful texture and three-dimensional feel. Although there is a distinct sense of spontaneity in the overall composition,  the application has been executed in a controlled and intentional manner.

    This acrylic & mixed media on canvas is housed in a complementary silver floater frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Figure in Pastel

    Sold

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An excellently executed nude figure study in pastel, framed behind glass.

    This nude study captures the female form elegantly and expressively. The artist has used long, narrow lines to outline the form, and used hatching to capture the three dimensionality of the  form of the body, giving the drawing a sculptural quality. A different technique has been used to fill in the background – it seems the artist has used the pastel to colour over a textured surface to create a dappled effect.

    The pastel has been beautifully framed in a wood and gilt frame, and is set behind glass to protect the vulnerability of the medium. Both pastel and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Gold Dust

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A very bright and striking mid century abstract modernist composition in oil, painted onto board.

    Dynamic strokes of layered colour create this painting full of depth and detail. The artist pours expressive emotion onto the canvas, resulting in this abstract expressionist composition that is very striking. The painting features several areas of impasto, where we see thickly applied paint and distinct brushstrokes, giving us a sense of the artist’s gestural movements.

    This painting is housed in a very complementary gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some very minor scuffs that do not detract from its overall attractiveness.

  • Indefinite

    Sold

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An expressive and well-executed abstract composition, executed in oil in 1960.

    With its non-representational and spontaneous appearance, the work is composed with elements of colour, shape, line and form.

    Painterly fluid lines, swift brushstrokes and dabs as well as geometric and amorphous shapes have been repurposed to form this striking cohesive work of art.

    Using an array of warm and inviting earth-tone colours of brown, orange and red, the artist has skilfully distributed and layered the lighter and darker tones – making the overall work very well-balanced.

    The surface of the painting has also been coated with a layer of varnish. This gives it a layer of shine, enhancing its aesthetic appeal whilst acting as a layer of protection to the artwork.

    This oil on board is housed in a charcoal grey wood frame with an inner silver window. There is a small area of craquelure (fine cracks in the paint, commensurate with its age) on the top left of the painting, as well as a scuff in the middle. Craquelure is not in itself harmful to the painting, and can add to the ‘quality’ of patina that only age can bring. As with the frame, there are minor scuffs and a small area of paint loss on the bottom left, as shown in the images.

    Do note that some glare is evident in the photograph due to the varnish on the picture.

  • Lady in Blue

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A fun and playful cubist line portrait composition in oil, painted in 1975.

    The female figure’s form has been rapidly distilled into lines of dynamic shape and movement. A style of drawing /painting used by artists like Picasso and Matisse, line art is a tool for the artist to work out complicated ideas, crystallising them with brilliant virtuosity into linear form. Today the influence of line art is everywhere and can be regarded as one of the fundaments of an almost infinitely versatile graphic language. It can be seen not only in the works of countless artists, but also in graphic design, advertising, animation, and equally at home in a viral gif, on a billboard or in museums or galleries.

    Here the artist has also condensed his palette down very effectively into shades of one colour – blue. Beyond the black outline, the picture retains its sense of depth and space through the skilful use of the varying gradients of blue.

    This painting is housed in a simple silver frame that suits it very well, and is in very good vintage condition. There are some minor scuffs to the frame which do not detract from the overall attractiveness of the piece.
