A beautiful mid century painting of sand dunes by an ocean, painted in an abstract manner.
The work explores the raw beauty of nature, colour and form, and is composed with a restrained palette comprising varying shades of cream white, black, and sand brown.
The colours blend and overlap seamlessly; and the soft brushstrokes make it seem as if the colours and merging together in slow motion, further imbuing the work with a tinge of melancholy.

A subtle and calming panoramic view of a mountainous landscape scene. Soft brushstrokes in a mix of watercolour and gouache imbue this painting with texture and a sense of three dimensionality. The areas painted in the more opaque medium of gouache draw the eye through the layers of contrasting tones created by the artist. The painting is a wonderful reminder of the calming and restoring effect of nature and its surroundings.
The painting is housed in a washline off white card mount and a light wood frame, and is glazed, i.e. there is a sheet of glass between the frame and the artwork. There is some age toning to the card mount, typical for a picture of this age (1979). The frame and gouache are in good vintage condition.

A heartwarming scene of a grandfather playing an accordian to his granddaughter as she sits in front of him listening in awe. The artist’s of colours and his soft strokes lends a sense of warmth and tenderness.
Apart from the narrative, there is technical skill and expertise in the artist’s handling of brush and medium. Despite the use of heavy layers of paint, the artist has managed to capture the translucency and diaphanous quality of the light curtain that hangs from the window. He has also managed to tread a fine balance between quick expressionist strokes and areas of finer detailing
This oil on canvas is housed in its original wood and painted gilt frame. It is in excellent vintage condition.
Size: 47.5 x 55.5 cm (including frame)

Our director Shanti shares her thoughts on this painting in this video.
This 20th century gouache painting presents a glimpse of a boat that has just docked at the quayside. Passengers have disembarked the boat, and a sailor from the boat beside can be seen peering down. The stillness from this calm composition brings back nostalgic memories of one returning back from an exciting trip out to sea, where fun for the day has come to an end as nightfall descends.
Against the darkness of the midnight sky, the artist accurately captures nearby light being cast on water ripples through thick dabs of paint. Unlike most impressionist paintings, this work is unique as it is presents a night scene, instead of a usual daytime and vibrant scene one may mostly come across.
This gouache on thick card comes framed. Overall, it is in good vintage condition that is typical for its age. There are some wears to the edges, of which are mostly covered by the frame.

A lovely study in oil pastel depicting two figures gathering crops, with rolling hills and a row of cottage behind them. There is a softness to this picture which the artist has achieved through the use of multiple elements such as the muted colour palette, the soft medium of oil pastel, and the exclusion of any hard angular lines. As a result, there is a wonderful rhythm and flow that has been achieved in this picture.
The pastel is framed in a triple card mount and a gilt frame. Both artwork and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

An iconic and attractive scene of a promenade in the marina of Alicante, Spain. Here, magnificent palm trees line the waterfront promenade, and beautiful catamarans and sailboats are docked by marina in the Mediterranean Sea. Featuring a brilliantly bold and fauvist-like colour palette, this painting is characterised by its fierce brushwork and simplification of forms. Complementary colours have been used side by side, injecting a real vibrancy and energy to the painting.

A stunning and richly textured painting of a mountainscape. The brushwork and colour palette really convey a sense of power and strength within the natural landscape. Distinct blocks of colour and thickly applied paint with areas impasto show off the technical skill and confidence of the artist. The composition of the painting is punctuated by the double tree trunks which feature in the foregound, splitting the picture into 3 parts and thereby shifting our gaze from left to right. The sloping curve of the mountain simultaneously draws our eyes downward, encouraging us to move our attention from the mountain, to the sky, and then to the ground.
The painting is housed in a really complementary gilt frame with hints of red. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

A sweet painting depicting two figures on a village lane, painted in oil onto board. A very pleasant array of pastel tones has been used to create this scene, and a pink-ish purple hue seems to wash over the painting. Long and wide painterly brushstrokes draw our eyes in towards the painting and onwards to the landscape beyond. Two figures appear to be having a conversation on a country lane, perhaps saying their hellos or goodbyes, we do not know. There is a sense of nostalgia and sentimentality with this painting, created by a combination of factors including the dreamy colour palette as well as the way in which the figures have been painted. Modernist techniques of creating space within the picture can be seen, such as the use of contrasting planes of colour rather than traditional methods of perspective.
The painting is housed in its original mid century wood frame, with an inner linen lined border. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

This striking oil painting in a typically mid century cubist style and colour palette is reminiscent of the modernist works by artists such as Picasso and Braque. Here a series of objects atop a table have been depicted from multiple view points, resulting in a fragmented and abstracted composition. The artist has broken the objects down into distinct planes and shapes, emphasizing the two-dimensional flatness of the canvas instead of creating the illusion of depth, while at the same time suggesting their three dimensional forms.
This oil is housed in its original mid century wood & gilt frame with a linen lined border. The artwork and frame are in very good vintage condition.

A wonderfully rendered charming still life, painted in 1969. Petite pink flowers are placed in a glass, as it sits on top of a table, alongside an empty bowl and 2 fruits. The colour palette and style of the work is playful and cheery – a nod to sunny days and good times.
Soft and fine strokes have been used paint the overall work, but the sweeping brushstrokes used to paint the creases in the yellow table runner convey a sense of movement in the work.
This painting on board is in excellent vintage condition.
It comes with a uniquely decorated frame with hand moulding and a gold border, which pairs extremely well with painting.

A fantastic mid century oil on canvas depicting seated farmers. Here the artist has used colour and form to its full extent – traditional perspective has replaced with swathes of contrasting colour to create depth and three dimensionality within the picture. Dark, bold outlines and vibrant saturated colour painted on with visible and distinct brushstrokes form this particularly modernist picture that carries elements of cubism.
The painting is housed in its original deep profile wood and gilt frame with a linen lining. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

A delicate watercolour of a japanese ikebana arrangement. More than simply putting flowers in a container, ikebana is a disciplined art form in which nature and humanity are brought together. Contrary to the idea of a particolored or multicolored arrangement of blossoms, ikebana often emphasizes other areas of the plant, such as its stems and leaves, and puts emphasis on shape, line, and form.
The painting is housed in an oak frame, and both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.

A thoroughly picturesque and atmospheric landscape scene. Presenting a bridge over a water stream cutting through rows of houses and trees, with a stunning mountain view in the background.
The artist wonderfully captures the setting of the sun, as it bathes the mountains, buildings and river in its warm light, and warm yellow tinge to the sky.
Despite the painterly and swift brushstrokes, the painting evokes an overall sense of calm, due to the stillness from the mountains and water stream.

A thoroughly atmospheric evening landscape scene, with people on their daily amble. Evening light has begun to set in, as the last of the daylight slowly seeps away. For so many of us, walks out in the fresh air were what got us through this difficult lockdown period. This painting perfectly captures that slightly mellow yet comfortable feeling of being alone with oneself, with not much else to do.
The painting is housed is in a robust gilt frame and is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has a small crack to the top inner corner (as shown in the photos), but is otherwise in good vintage condition.

An expressive and dynamic mid 20th century seascape painted in oil.
Executed in bold colours and confident brushstrokes, this artwork depicts an elderly couple admiring the wonder and beauty of nature. They look out towards the choppy waters, a storm is brewing in the green lit sky, as strong tidal waves are crashing in the vast ocean.
With areas of thick impasto creating texture and three dimensionality – the work is imbued with a strong sense of movement, as one can almost feel the energy of the breaking waves.

This zen winter landscape rendered in a muted palette in oil is both simple and striking. A snow covered field stretches into the distance, its horizon lined by a row of hazy trees. Mounds of seemingly barren land peak through the thin layer of snow. But barren it is not, merely taking its chance to rest through winter before the busier season of crops begin again. Its ploughed lines extend forward into the distance – here is the earth taking a long, much needed exhalation. A reminder that we all need to take a moment or two to rest, relax and breathe from time to time.
The painting is housed in a very complementary silver wood frame with hits of red showing through. Both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.

A well-executed modernist style painting of an abstracted interior setting, dated 1951.
We are able to make out patio doors, a coat hanger with several coats hanging, and an assortment of objects placed on the ground. The artist has intentionally painted the objects in a very abstracted manner, focusing instead on shapes, forms, colours and outlines more than any realistic details.
Broad and swift brushstrokes have been applied in a multi-directional and confident manner. The artist has skilfully layered and blended the colours together to create a textured effect.
The oil on canvas is housed in a gorgeous distressed frame wood, showing off its wood grain beautifully.
Both artwork and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

A fantastic semi abstract oil depicting a figure within an abstracted background, painted in a cool palette of blue, white and yellow. The artist has intentionally focussed on the play of colour, choosing to leave out any realistic details or sense of perspective or context. A figure sits in the centre of the picture, and although distinct, he seems to almost be on the verge of merging into the curtain of colour behind him. This painting has a wonderful sense of playfulness and mystery about it.
The painting is housed in a light champagne frame with hints of red. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

This fantastic oil depicts a deep and moody street scene in Stockholm. The rain has cleared but the brooding skies suggest that there is perhaps more to come. 3 figures walk down the empty road, past the colourful townhouses.
The brushstrokes and colour palette capture the melancholy poignantly in this 1950s painting. Multi directional strokes in a blended palette create an intensity and depth that conveys the mood of the picture.
The painting is housed in a wood frame with gilt highlights. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some areas of restoration (as seen in the photos) but is otherwise in good vintage condition.

A well-executed oil on canvas depicting 3 good friends having a conversation in the outdoors on a winter’s day.
What’s most striking is the use of the impasto technique – where the artist has confidently applied thick layers of paint on the canvas, giving it an outstanding three-dimensional appearance.
Although a restrained colour palette with a predominance of blue, green, and orange can be seen, the way that the artist has skilfully layered and blended the colours together so harmoniously is simply stunning.
Furthermore, there is a layer of varnish that coats the surface of the painting. This gives it a layer of shine, enhancing its aesthetic appeal, whilst acting as a layer of protection to the artwork.
This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary rattan-lined wood frame with an inner silver window. Both artwork and frame are in excellent vintage condition.
Do note that some glare is evident in the photograph due to the varnish on the picture.

An exquisite still life painting of a vase of pink flower cuttings. The artist has captured the free and wild nature of the stems, carefully including the fallen stems to achieve a sense of balance and naturalism within the picture. The colours of the background and vase mimic the leaves, allowing the contrasting pink of the flowers to stand out.
This fine painting is housed in a robust and ornately detailed moulded gilt frame.
The painting is in excellent vintage condition. There are some minor losses to the frame moulding but this has been restored and painted over in gold (refer to photos).

A really interesting and detailed oil painting of a selection of antiquities and collectables. The array of objects presented atop a white table reflect an interest in world culture and history, and perhaps even the particular interests of a scholar or explorer who might have picked up these objects on his travels. In the background hangs a patterned fabric, possibly of East Asian origin.
The artist has taken great care in capturing the varying textures of each object. For example, we are able to surmise the polished stone of the head study on the left, whose surface texture stands in contrast to the rougher finish of the tall earthenware vessel in the middle.
The painting is housed in a very unique textured wide profile frame with a mixture of finishes, included a moulded gilt inner window.
Painted in 1959, it is in very good vintage condition overall. There are some cracks in the paint that are only visible if inspected very closely, but the paint surface stable. Cracks like these are very normal for a painting of this age as the paint medium contracts over time.
Size: 45 x 58 cm (including frame)
