    The White Doors

    £515

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A mid-century painting that presents a quietly striking view of a barn facade,  painted in oil onto canvas board.

    The composition is front-facing and architectural, reducing the subject to its essential planes and proportions. White doors – each slightly misaligned and marked by age – create a rhythmic sequence across the surface, punctuated by hinges, latches, and subtle irregularities in the wood.

    Stylistically, the work reflects a mid-century modern sensibility, where everyday vernacular architecture is treated with restraint and formal clarity. The artist balances realism with a gently abstracted approach, emphasising geometry, repetition, and surface texture over narrative detail.

    The colour palette is warm yet grounded: rich reds dominate the background, softened by the chalky whites and pale greys of the doors. Muted shadows and earthy undertones add depth, while the roofline introduces a darker band that anchors the composition.

    Brushstrokes are deliberate and tactile, particularly visible in the vertical planks and the layered paint on the doors. The handling of paint suggests careful observation: neither loose nor overly polished, allowing the texture of wood and the passage of time to subtly emerge. Overall, the painting conveys a sense of stillness and quiet endurance, capturing beauty in the functional and the worn.

    This oil on canvas board is mounted onto a complementary silver painted wood frame with an inner wood border.  Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    Size: 28.5 x 36.5 cm (including frame)

  • Dance the Night Away

    Dance the Night Away

    £495

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A lively, cubist-inspired depiction of a dance scene, painted in oil onto board.
    Bursting with movement, music, and social energy, the artist has stylised the human figures into angular, geometric forms, using dynamic composition and vivid colour to capture the joy and motion of a moment frozen in time.

    The palette is warm and rich, dominated by reds, oranges, yellows, and earthy browns, contrasted with purples, greens, and soft greys. Movement is conveyed not just through the figures but through the background, which is fractured into diagonal planes, giving the scene energy and rhythm.

    The dance, the music, and the expressive poses suggest a night of uninhibited fun. This painting is a beautiful example of how modernist geometry and vibrant social scenes can merge into something timeless and full of spirit.

    This oil on board is housed in a wood frame with a linen border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. There is some very light scuffing to the frame but it is  good condition overall.

  • Sliced Lemons

    Sliced Lemons

    £765

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A cubist inspired still life composition, painted in oil onto canvas and dated 1956.

    The focal point is a pair of sliced lemons, painted in thick, creamy strokes of yellow, white, and peach, giving them a fresh, tactile presence. Beside the fruit is a green pear-like form, adding another organic shape and hue. These items rest on a dark surface, perhaps a tabletop, which is painted in large, angular blocks of navy and black.

    A small brown table or cabinet with short legs sits in the upper right quadrant. It appears simplified and stylised, reinforcing the abstracted, geometric quality of the whole scene.

    This piece is heavily influenced by Cubism and early modernism. Forms are reduced to flat planes and hard-edged shapes and the brushwork is confident but restrained. There is a visible grid-like structure as if the artist constructed the composition like a puzzle.

    The painting feels studied, measured, and designed, like an artist exploring how to deconstruct the familiar (fruit and furniture) into new visual language. It invites the viewer to slow down, observe form over realism, and enjoy the way light and space are broken into segments. The fractured composition gives it a slightly modern, mosaic-like effect, almost architectural in nature.

    The painting is housed in a light grey wood with a weathered patina and a gently bevelled design. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Still Life Elements

    Still Life Elements

    £580

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

     A bold and stylised mid century still life in oil, painted onto board and dated 1955.
    Blending cubist and modernist influences, the composition is defined by strong, simplified shapes and vivid colour blocking, creating a playful yet structured visual experience. The painting features an arrangement of classic still life elements including a pitcher, a teapot, bottles, a cup, and several round red fruits. Bright green leaves sprawl across the foreground, adding organic curves against the sharper forms behind them.

    These pops of vibrant red in the fruit and rich green in the leaves create striking contrast. A triangular beam of yellow light or background wall shape adds dynamic energy and depth to the scene.

    The shadows are bold and geometric, not naturalistic, adding a graphic design-like quality that emphasises form over realism.

    This painting embraces a modernist abstraction of still life, similar in spirit to the work of Fernand Léger or early Picasso. It feels both playful and calculated, as if each shape is carefully placed like pieces in a visual puzzle. It also has a slightly theatrical feel, as if lit from stage lights, enhancing its sense of constructed drama.

    This oil on canvas is presented in a beautifully distressed vintage wood frame.  The painting has some areas of craquelure as shown in the photos but it is very stable overall. The frame has some scuffing, commensurate with age.

  • Arrangement by the Window

    Arrangement by the Window

    £540

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A refined mid-century interior still life painting, executed in oil onto canvas.

    This composition arranges everyday objects into a poised, almost architectural tableau. A bowl of brightly coloured fruit anchors the scene, set upon a warm brown tabletop alongside two citrus forms and a slender candlestick. Above, a dark mortar and pestle sits against a softly diffused window, where vertical strokes evoke sheer curtains and architectural buildings. Along the lower register, abstract floral or fruit-like motifs echo the colours above, creating a rhythmic visual balance.

    Rendered in a modernist, reductive style, the painting favours simplified shapes and carefully weighted blocks of colour over fine detail. Softly scumbled brushstrokes and visible edges give the work a textural, atmospheric quality, while the artist’s palette – dusty blues, muted greys, warm ochres, soft greens, and small bursts of orange and yellow lends calmness punctuated by subtle vibrancy. The overall effect is contemplative and elegant, transforming a quiet domestic moment into a study of harmony, form, and mood.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary slim gilt frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Blossoms & Fruit

    Blossoms & Fruit

    £495

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A soothing and very pleasant mid-century modernist style still life that presents a luminous arrangement of flowers and fruit, executed in oil onto board.

    At the centre, a white ceramic vase holds a lively bouquet of blossoms: soft blue, deep red, vivid yellow and indigo – set against a dramatic background of shadowed navy and pale grey. The floral forms are loosely defined yet full of character, capturing the spontaneity and freshness of a moment observed.

    Below, an assortment of apples, plums and a single green pear are scattered casually across the tabletop. Their rounded forms and warm tones create a pleasing counterbalance to the vertical elegance of the vase. A patterned drape in soft blue with warm rust-orange accents adds depth and a gentle theatricality to the composition.

    The palette is harmonious and inviting: cool blues and greys contrasted with bright fruit tones and fresh greens. Brushstrokes are expressive but controlled, with soft blending in the background and more decisive, painterly marks in the flowers and fruit. The overall effect is one of warmth, vibrancy and quiet domestic charm – an appealing example of mid-century still-life painting that brings both colour and calm to any interior.

    This oil on board is presented in a complementary gilt frame. The painting itself is in very good vintage condition, and the frame has some areas of wear to the inner frame as shown in the photos.

  • The Exchange

    The Exchange

    £475

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A captivating and expressive mid-century figurative painting depicting two stylised figures standing in quiet dialogue, executed in oil onto canvas.

    Their forms are abstracted yet expressive – one slender and upright, the other broader with a gently tilted head, creating an intimate sense of interaction without relying on facial detail. The figures feel sculptural, almost totemic, evoking mood through posture rather than realism.

    Rendered in a bold modernist style, the composition embraces simplified shapes and a strong graphic presence. The palette is warm and earthy, dominated by orange, rust, deep umber, charcoal, and muted mustard yellows. These tones are set against a pale, softly luminous background that enhances the painting’s sense of warmth and immediacy.

    The brushwork is confident and textural, with broad, gestural strokes that give the figures weight and movement. Layered passages of paint create subtle ridges and variations, while the looser background wash keeps the scene airy and light. There is a raw, expressive quality to the application – intentional yet spontaneous.

    A striking piece with strong presence, emotional ambiguity, and a wonderful interplay of colour and form.

    This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary rich, dark wood frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has slight widening to the corners, some scuffs, as well as four small drill holes present  in each corner of the frame.

    Canopy of Light

    £525

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A charming mid-century landscape that captures a bright, leisurely day in a park, framed by two monumental trees that dominate the foreground, executed in oil onto canvas.

    Their tall, textured trunks open like a gateway into a lively scene beyond, where figures wander along a sunlit path. In the distance, soft structural lines hint at a bridge or harbour crossing, grounding the composition in a recognisable yet dreamlike setting.

    Rendered in a loose, impressionistic modernist style, the painting is filled with movement and atmosphere. The artist uses quick, gestural strokes to describe the swaying leaves, fluttering foliage, and gentle shifts of light. The palette is uplifting and harmonious: pale sky blues, soft lilacs, and warm greens build a serene backdrop, while touches of yellow, rose, and turquoise bring vibrancy to the scene.

    The brushwork is fluid and expressive, with dappled marks that suggest sunlight filtering through branches and energetic, sketch-like lines that animate the figures and terrain. Overall, it is a joyful, breezy composition that celebrates nature, community, and the quiet poetry of everyday life.

  • Figure and Flowers

    Figure and Flowers

    £505

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A serene mid-century modernist style painting that depicts a quiet, intimate interior moment, executed in oil onto board and dated 1953.

    A female figure is seated at a table, deeply focused on her hands as she works or writes. She wears a white headscarf and a pale blue dress, her posture soft and contemplative. To her right, a simple vase holds two vivid red-orange flowers, their petals dramatically fanned and adding a lively burst of colour to the otherwise serene setting. A closed book rests on the table, anchoring the composition with a sense of stillness and domestic quiet.

    Executed in a distinctly mid-century modernist style, the work embraces simplified geometric forms, muted planes of colour, and a strong sense of design. The artist has reduced detail to essentials, relying on shape and tonal relationships to describe space and figure. The overall aesthetic is minimal, balanced, and quietly poetic.

    The palette is soft and harmonious: cool greys, pale blues, cream, soft yellow and muted greens form the foundation of the room and figure. These gentle tones are beautifully contrasted by the bold, saturated reds and oranges of the flowers, giving the composition a striking focal point without overwhelming its calm mood.

    Brushwork is smooth, controlled, and deliberate, with flat, even applications of paint that emphasise form over texture. Edges are clean and slightly softened, contributing to the painting’s gentle, contemplative atmosphere.

    This oil on board is presented in a complementary wood frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some scuffs.

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A charming mid-century landscape painting captures a tranquil outdoor scene featuring two female figures seated at a round table in a sunlit garden, executed in oil onto board.

    Set against the backdrop of a soft beige house with a deep, shadowed doorway, the figures appear engaged in quiet conversation or shared activity, lending the composition a gentle narrative intimacy. The garden around them is lush and alive, with tall grasses in yellow-green hues and trees whose canopies are rendered in cool greens, blues and touches of deep teal, creating a vibrant interplay of colour and light.

    Executed in a distinctly modernist style, the artist has employed simplified forms and expressive, confident brushstrokes. The palette leans toward harmonious earth tones, punctuated by cool blues and greens that evoke dappled shade and warm Mediterranean air. The brushwork is loose yet intentional, especially in the foliage, where strokes overlap to create texture and depth. The figures, though minimally detailed, are sensitively modelled through shape and colour, allowing their presence to feel both grounded and atmospheric.

    Overall, this work offers a beautiful snapshot of leisurely outdoor life: serene, intimate, and rich with the warmth and colour characteristic of mid-century European painting.

    Golden Drift

    £430

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A  serene and atmospheric abstract landscape that captures the quiet poetry of an open horizon rendered through expressive texture and colour, executed in oil onto board and dated 1994.

    The composition is anchored by a band of deep browns, charcoals and soft whites that suggest distant landforms or shifting terrain, while the foreground dissolves into warm ochres, honeyed yellows and sandy neutrals. Above, a vast expanse of pale sky – softly blended in tones of white, cream and frosted blue evokes a sense of calm, openness, and gentle movement.

    Executed in an abstract, modernist style, the painting relies on suggestion rather than literal detail. Broad, confident brushstrokes move horizontally across the canvas, creating a sense of depth and natural flow. Areas of impasto add tactile richness, with strokes layered and textured to mimic geological or weather-worn surfaces. The overall effect is both soothing and energetic, a landscape distilled to its essential mood and rhythm.

    Shoreline Colour

    £455

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A mid-century coastal landscape that captures a cluster of moored boats rendered through a beautifully abstracted, almost mosaic-like lens, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The shoreline is broken into faceted blocks of colour, giving the scene a rhythmic, geometric energy. Tall, slender masts rise in delicate lines against a soft pastel sky, while the boats themselves are simplified into angular shapes that evoke both structure and movement.

    The palette is fresh and inviting – greens, cool aquas, deep cobalt blues, warm yellows, and touches of plum and lavender. These colours overlap in gently textured layers, creating a harmonious interplay between land, sea, and shore.

    Brushwork is subtle yet expressive, with short, blocky strokes and light scumbling that mimic the look of hand-pressed prints or coloured pastels.

    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.

  • Under the Desert Sky

    Under the Desert Sky

    £505

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A compelling abstract landscape with figure oil composition, painted in 1961 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 painting captures a quiet moment of communal gathering in what appears to be a sun-drenched desert setting. A group of robed figures, seated in a loose circle, are rendered in simplified forms that emphasise posture and gesture rather than facial detail – inviting the viewer to focus on atmosphere and collective presence over individual identity.

    The style is modernist and pared-back, with strong influences of mid-century abstraction. The artist distils the scene into broad planes of colour: a soft blue sky meeting a warm band of yellow horizon, and earthy tones of russet, sand and umber defining the ground. The figures themselves appear as sculptural blocks of white, cream, black and deep brown, forming a rhythmic arrangement across the composition.

    Brushstrokes are thick, confident, and deliberately visible, with the paint applied in textured swathes that give the work a grounded, tactile quality. The artist’s expressive technique conveys a sense of stillness and the intimate social rituals of desert life.

    This oil on board is presented in a complementary ridged gilt frame.  The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some wear to its corners as shown.

    A vibrant and expressive mid-century still life painting with wonderful texture, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The composition depicts two flowering plants in terracotta pots, their bold red blooms bursting with energy against a softly lit interior backdrop. The composition centres on the lush, elongated green leaves and radiant flowers, capturing the vitality of the plants as they lean and unfurl with natural dynamism.

    Executed in a distinctly mid-century expressionist style, the painting embraces thick, confident impasto throughout. Generous, sculptural brushstrokes build up the surface, giving the petals and foliage a textured, almost tactile presence. The palette is warm and uplifting: vivid red and coral for the blossoms, earthy greens for the foliage, deep browns for the pots, and a soft mixture of creams, yellows, and pale blues in the surrounding interior.

    The artist’s vigorous technique brings a sense of immediacy and movement, allowing the flowers to feel almost alive. Light dances across the textured paint, adding depth and a glowing warmth that enhances the overall charm of the scene.

    £425

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A charming and atmospheric mid-century still life depicting a beautifully balanced arrangement of everyday objects, executed in oil onto canvas.

    A richly toned violin lies gently across a tabletop, its warm reddish-brown body catching the light with a subtle sheen. Behind it, a patterned ceramic vase holds three full white chrysanthemums, their rounded petals captured with beautifully textured, expressive brushwork. The surrounding interior, rendered in soft muted tones, provides a calm and understated backdrop that allows the objects to take centre stage.

    The painting is executed in a refined realist-impressionist style, marked by a balance of clarity and softness. The earthy greens, warm browns, and creamy whites create a soothing, cohesive palette, while the contrast between the polished surface of the violin and the delicate, layered petals of the chrysanthemums adds visual richness. The brushstrokes shift thoughtfully throughout: crisp and tactile in the flowers, smooth and controlled along the violin, and gently blended in the background – giving the work depth and atmosphere without drawing attention away from the central arrangement.

    This oil on canvas is housed in an elegant gilt frame with an inner linen lining. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    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.

    Lily of the Valley with Pears

    £905

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A charming and characterful mid-century interior still life composition executed in tempera on board, by the established Swedish artist Eric Cederberg (1897-1984), whose artworks have been represented in several public and museum collections across Sweden.

    This beautifully composed painting centres around a striking turquoise vase filled with lily-of-the-valley, their delicate white bells rising in elegant contrast against a backdrop of bold modernist colour blocks. Arranged on a vivid red tabletop, four stylised green pears add balance and rhythm.

    The interior behind the arrangement is rendered through geometric planes of earthy brown, charcoal, plum, and cerulean blue, evoking walls, textiles, and an arched doorway while maintaining a flattened, abstract sensibility.

    Executed in tempera, the work exhibits smooth, matte surfaces with crisp, clean edges. The artist embraces a distinctly modernist, slightly naïve style: simplifying forms, minimising perspective, and emphasising bold, graphic colour fields. The brushwork is controlled and even, lending a refined clarity to each element within the composition.

    This tempera on board is presented in an ornate, richly detailed gilt frame that elevates the work with a sense of classical elegance. The artwork is further enhanced by a deep burgundy velvet mount, which provides a luxurious contrast and subtly intensifies the colours within the painting. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has tiny areas of wear the corners, consistent with age.

    Still Life with Sardines

    £535

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An expressive mid-century still life painting, executed in oil onto board and dated 1961.

    This composition brings together a humble yet vibrant assortment of fresh sardines, prawns, and sliced onions arranged across a softly rumpled cloth. The artist has captured the immediacy of a kitchen table moment: the silvery shimmer of fish, the warm glow of onions, and the deep coral tones of prawns – rendered with expressive confidence.

    The work sits firmly within the mid-century modernist tradition. It blends realism with painterly abstraction, allowing objects to remain recognisable while being interpreted through bold, gestural forms.

    A muted, earthy palette dominates the scene: soft greys, warm taupes, and sandy neutrals form the backdrop. These subtle tones are punctuated by sharper highlights: the metallic blues and whites of the fish, the pale yellows and greens of the onions, and the rich vermillion hues of the prawns. Together, they create a balanced and atmospheric harmony

    Broad, confident strokes shape the background and cloth, giving it a textured, almost sculptural feel. The food items themselves are rendered with more deliberate yet still loose brushwork – quick flicks and decisive marks bring out the glistening skin of the sardines and the curved forms of the prawns. The overall surface has an energetic, spontaneous quality that enhances the painting’s rustic charm and authenticity.

    This oil on board is presented in a complementary wood frame with multiple profiles.  Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    A serene and contemplative modernist style painting that captures the tranquil beauty of a lake as seen through an open window, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1988.

    The composition draws the viewer’s gaze outward – from the soft shadows of the window frame to the vivid expanse of blue water and rolling green hills beyond.

    Executed in a modernist style, the artist has simplified the forms into broad, confident planes of colour, creating a rhythmic interplay between interior and exterior light. The palette is dominated by cool tones of azure, teal, and pale green, balanced by creamy whites and muted beiges that evoke the warmth of sunlit stone.

    The brushstrokes are loose yet deliberate, laid down in short, directional strokes that convey texture and the quiet movement of light and air. This technique lends the work both structure and spontaneity.

    A striking and brilliantly executed mid-century still life rendered in a bold, semi-abstract style, painted in oil onto canvas.

    The composition depicts a fish laid across a platter beside a lemon, glass, and bowl: objects arranged within a geometrically fragmented space. The artist has simplified form into planes of colour and texture, transforming everyday objects into rhythmic patterns of line and contrast.

    The palette combines muted greys, whites, and earthy browns punctuated by deep blues, black, and sharp accents of red and green. The juxtaposition of the lemon’s acid hue and the fish’s reddish tones creates a visual tension that energises the otherwise subdued background.

    The brushwork is layered yet controlled, with areas of smooth paint application set against textured, block-like sections. The interplay of flatness and depth, together with the abstracted cubist influences, lends the work a distinctly modern sensibility: a refined balance between structure and spontaneity that captures the quiet drama of the still life genre.

    This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary slim wood frame with an inner white border. There is some scattered craquelure and paint loss on the glass cup but this does not detract from the overall appearance and the painting is otherwise in good condition overall.

  • Sunlit Village

    Sunlit Village

    £545

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A tranquil mid-century townscape that captures a quiet hillside settlement basking in the stillness of the afternoon sun,  by the established Swedish artist Eric Cederberg (1897-1984), whose artworks have been represented in several public and museum collections across Sweden.

    The composition is defined by a rhythmic arrangement of geometric buildings, their flat roofs and muted facades rendered in blocks of brown, sienna, and cream. Behind them, deep green hills rise gently against a cool light turquoise sky, grounding the otherwise minimal architectural forms in a serene landscape.

    Executed in a distinctly modernist style, the artist has used broad, confident brushstrokes and thickly applied oil paint to reduce the scene to its essential planes of colour and light. Shadows are simplified into dark, earthy tones, while sunlit walls glow with pale yellows and greens. The absence of figures and fine detail lends the painting a contemplative, timeless quality: an exploration of harmony between manmade structure and the natural world.

    The colour palette is warm yet subdued. The brushwork is deliberate and textural, creating a tactile surface that enhances the architectural solidity of the forms while preserving a painterly spontaneity. The restrained use of perspective and tone evokes the balanced calm characteristic of mid-century European modernist painting.

    This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary wood frame with a inner gilt border. The painting itself is in excellent vintage condition. The frame shows minor signs of age wear though these do not detract from its overall presentation.

  • Cottage Beyond the Trees

    Cottage Beyond the Trees

    £425

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A serene mid-century modernist style landscape capturing the quiet charm of a countryside, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The composition draws the eye along a soft earthen path leading toward a red wooden cottage nestled among tall, slender trees. In the foreground, a small wooden boat rests on the grassy ground, evoking stillness and rural simplicity.

    Rendered in a modernist, pared-down style, the artist has used flat planes of colour and minimal detailing to suggest light and form rather than delineate them. Pale yellows, warm browns, soft greens, and muted blues create a harmonious palette that beautifully conveys the cool, crisp air of early spring or late autumn.

    The brushstrokes are broad and textured, laid down with deliberate restraint:  giving the scene a tactile, almost blocky rhythm that reflects the influence of Scandinavian modernism.

    This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary wood frame with subtle reddish-brown tone and an inner gilt lining. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Lemon & Literature

    Lemon & Literature

    £480

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A lively and expressive mid-century still life that captures a vibrant table scene where fruit, bottles, and books converge in a symphony of colour and texture, executed in oil onto board.

    A blue tablecloth stretches across the foreground, holding a scattering of apples, oranges, and a lemon alongside two dark bottles and a pair of books rendered in bold red and black. The scene glows against a luminous yellow backdrop, infusing the composition with a sense of warmth and vitality.

    The artist’s palette is bold and confident: sunny yellows, blues, deep blacks, and accents of warm orange and crimson create a dynamic interplay that brings life to the static composition. The brushwork is expressive and heavily impastoed, with thick, deliberate strokes that lend a tactile energy to the painting. The use of contrasting colours and broad application of paint give the piece a sense of rhythm and immediacy characteristic of mid-century modernist expression.

    The painting balances structure and spontaneity beautifully – each object is simplified yet full of presence, and the scene hums with quiet intensity. A wonderful example of post-war European still-life painting, celebrating the everyday through bold colour and painterly confidence.

    This oil on board is presented in a complementary gilt frame with red undertones, and an inner white border The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has scuffing.

  • Constructed Still Life

    Constructed Still Life

    £945

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking mid-century still life rendered through bold geometry and a masterful play of colour planes, executed in oil onto canvas.

    On a faceted tabletop sit a tall red jug, a teal bottle, and two fruits: one rosy red, the other golden yellow – arranged in balanced asymmetry. The artist has abstracted the everyday into angular forms, each shape carved by light and shadow into sculptural precision.

    Executed in a Cubist-inspired style, the composition uses intersecting planes and overlapping hues to suggest depth and rhythm. Deep blues and purples form the backdrop, while cool aquas, brick reds, and lemon yellows provide sharp, luminous contrast. The brushwork is confident and flat, with clean edges and opaque layers that emphasise structure over texture, giving the work a strong architectural presence.

    This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary wood frame with a linen-lined inner border. The painting itself is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some marks, but this does not detract from its overall presentation.

  • Sunlight & Table

    Sunlight & Table

    £455

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A gentle and poetic mid-century interior still life that captures a moment of quiet radiance, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The scene centres on a teal table, upon which rests a small earthen pot of pink flowers, bathed in a cascade of soft morning light filtering through tall windows. The painter transforms a humble domestic corner into a study of atmosphere: where form dissolves into light and shadow.

    Executed in a loose, impressionistic style, the artist has used delicate, feathery brushstrokes and thin layers of paint to build an airy, almost translucent composition. Muted mauves, lilacs, pale yellows, and soft greys create a dreamlike haze, while the turquoise of the table provides a striking counterpoint of solidity within the diffused glow. The brushwork is confident yet restrained – the marks suggesting more than defining, allowing the viewer’s imagination to fill in the forms.

    The overall effect is one of serenity and light: a meditation on stillness and the subtle poetry of the everyday interior.

    This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary wood frame with a rich and warm oak tone, and with an inner gilt window. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some scuffing.

  • Sunlit Balcony

    Sunlit Balcony

    £495

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A vibrant and joyfully expressive mid-century painting that captures the view from a sunlit balcony overlooking a blue sea, executed in oil onto canvas.

    In the foreground, terracotta pots overflowing with pink flowers rest upon a richly hued red-orange floor, while a delicately curved white wrought-iron chair invites the viewer to sit and take in the scene. Beyond the golden railing, a cluster of white sailboats glides gracefully across the deep indigo waters, with the warmth of a distant shoreline and a serene sky above completing this idyllic Mediterranean vista.

    Painted in a bold, modernist style, the work features lively, gestural brushstrokes that build texture and movement throughout the composition. The artist’s palette brims with complementary contrasts – vivid reds and oranges against cooling blues and greens –  evoking both warmth and breeze. The loose, painterly handling create a sense of spontaneity and immediacy, lending the piece a distinctly Fauvist energy and charm.

    A delightful and uplifting coastal scene that radiates summer light and the carefree spirit of mid-century modern painting.

    This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary simple wooden frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Blush Horizon (Set of 2)

    Blush Horizon (Set of 2)

    £515

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An elegant pair of minimalist landscapes, dated 1985, that captures the serene beauty of open land under a soft rose-tinted sky, and executed in oil onto canvas.

    The two compositions are designed to complement each other: one showing a gentle line of birch trees standing in rhythmic formation, the other depicting a quiet rise with a few slender trunks and a simple wire fence stretching across the horizon.

    The artist has used a restrained modernist palette of blush pink, misty grey, and muted greens, allowing atmosphere and tone to take centre stage. The brushwork is delicate and deliberate – light dabs and soft stippling define the foliage, while smooth gradients create a sense of still air and fading distance.

    Together, the pair evokes a dreamlike calm: a moment of dusk or dawn frozen in time, and would bring a refined sense of balance and tranquillity to any space.

    These oil on canvases are housed in complementary silver and black frames. There are some light marks near the tops and bottoms of each work, consistent with age and display. The frames have some light wear and scuffing, though this does little to detract from the overall elegance of the pair.

    Size of each artwork: 59 x 51.5 cm (including frame)

  • Chair by the Archway

    Chair by the Archway

    £455

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A large mid-century painting that presents a loosely abstracted scene of an arched doorway with a simple chair set before it, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The subject matter is reduced to essential outlines and shifting planes of colour, creating a sense of suggestion rather than literal depiction.

    The style leans towards post-impressionist abstraction, with forms softened and fractured through expressive brushwork. The artist plays with spatial ambiguity – lines of the chair, arch, and surrounding walls overlap and dissolve into one another, giving the composition a dreamlike and fleeting quality.

    The colour palette is dominated by cool blues and violets, balanced with soft orange, greens, and hints of coral pinks and yellows. These tones are applied in broad, translucent layers, often broken with linear accents, suggesting both architectural structure and natural surroundings.

    The brushstrokes are loose, gestural, and exploratory, with an emphasis on rhythm and energy over precision. The interplay of quick vertical and diagonal strokes with washes of blended colour creates both depth and movement, evoking a meditative interior-exterior space.

    This oil on canvas is presented in an elegant gilt frame complemented by an inner band of reddish-brown wood grain that adds warmth and depth. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    £1,055

    Available

    Free UK Shipping Only.

    A mid-century modernist painting presents a vibrant yet soothing interpretation of houses by a hillside, depicted in a bold, semi-abstract style,  executed in oil onto canvas.

    The composition features clusters of houses with angular rooftops nestled among lush greenery, painted in deep blues, rich reds, and warm earth tones. The background sky is rendered in a muted, soft grey, allowing the vivid hues of the houses to stand out.

    The artist has used thick, expressive brushstrokes, giving the painting a dynamic, textured quality. The foliage appears sculpted through impasto techniques, while the simplified geometric forms of the buildings lend a sense of structure amidst the organic movement of the landscape.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a very well-suited gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has a small area of paint loss but is in good condition overall.
