  • The Muse

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A really unique semi-abstract painting in oil of a muse posing for an artist. In this piece emphasis has been placed on lines and forms as opposed to realistic details. For example, a triangular plane of saturated yellow has been used to represent the light streaming from the lamp shade above the head of the artist. But this plane of yellow is also what creates perspective and depth in this picture, establishing the space between the artist and the muse. Rich colours of green, yellow and gold give this painting a resplendence, emphasised further by the gilt frame surrounding the painting.

    Both painting and gilt frame are in excellent condition.

    Size: 43.5 x 31cm (including frame)

  • St Germain

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    Saint-Germain-des-Prés, the 6th Arrondissement of Paris, is best known for the literary and artistic celebrities who lived and worked here in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It was the meeting point for existentialists, painters, and writers. This vibrant painting of the quarter accurately conveys its youthful energy and atmosphere.

    The oil painting is in good vintage condition, including some typical signs of ageing to the linen lining on the frame.

    Painting size: 21 x 25.5 cm

    Overall size: 30 x 34.5 cm (including frame)

    Miniature paintings are often overlooked treasures. Their small size means they can fit into an array of small spaces, adding interest to nooks and crannies. They can be displayed on a bookshelf or kitchen shelf, either standing on a mini easel or leant against other objects/books. If added to a group display, these small pieces act as a wonderful contrast to bigger pieces, and can add ‘punctuation’ to the group hang.

  • Sunshine

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    This gorgeous array of freshly picked calendulas and chrysanthemums will most definitely add a touch of elegance to any interior space. The vibrant yellow flowers stand out beautifully against the darker grey -blue background, and the artist’s brushstrokes and areas of thicker impasto add texture and interest.

    We reframed this painting recently in this beautifully elegant champagne wood frame which adds structure and brightens the painting.

    Size: 40.5 x 51 cm (including frame)

  • The Swans

    Sold

    A wonderful study of 2 white swans grazing in a lush garden, set against a historical building.

    On this fine morning in Spring, a graceful pair of swans have just emerged from the nearby lake, and have come to the lawn to nibble on grass. With no one else in sight, they are roaming freely in the area, with not a worry in the world.

    The artist has selected a beautiful naturalistic and earthy colour palette in this work; and has creatively dabbed a mix of clay, beige and sand colours to render the rough and granular nature of stone on the historical building.

    He has also painted the grass in a similar fashion – using different shades of green and some hints of beige to highlight its dense appearance.

    This mid 20th century painting is an oil on canvas, and is signed on the lower right.

    It is complemented by its gilt frame, and measures 73.5 x 62.5 cm (including frame)

  • Morning Flight

    Sold

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A absolutely stunning oil painting of birds in flight across a coastal landscape. The artist has managed to capture the crispness of an early winter morning, with a purple hue enveloping the landscape. The glowing rays of the sun have begun to warm up the sky, its rays reflecting off the water’s surface. The addition of the pair of birds mid-flight completes the composition of this oil perfectly.

    The oil painting by Egon Lennart Karlsson is housed in a gilt frame and is in excellent vintage condition.

    Painting size: 26 x 28 cm

    Overall size: 30.5 x 33 cm (including frame)

  • The Tabletop Party

    Sold

    SOLD

    An expressive still life depicting 2 pears, a wooden spatula, and a Delft blue plate laid out on a tabletop.

    The artist has skilfully captured the three-dimensionality of the objects through the use of bold and distinct brushstrokes using the impasto technique.

    The overflowing use of colours as well as texture imbues this little painting with so much character and vigour – that it makes the objects come to live, and seem as if they are having a blast at their own little party together.

    The painting is housed in a new box frame that is painted white.

    Size: 27 x 30cm (including frame)

  • Le Cheval

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A lovely delicate miniature study of a horse painted in 1917. The overall beige and cream tones in this miniature watercolour, as well as the use of fine and soft brushstrokes lend much lightness to the overall tone.

    It is well presented within a mount and a wonderful wooden frame with a wide profile and visible grain. With its multiple ‘windows’, this frame adds volume and focus to the painting, and pairs perfectly with it.

    This framed miniature is in very good vintage condition. There is very slight crevice along the lower section of the frame that is visible only upon close inspection. The structure of the wood frame remains very stable.

    Painting Size: 11.5 x 11.5 cm

    Overall Size: 25.5  x 25.5 cm (including frame)

  • The Street Fair

    Sold

    This enchanting scene of a street fair is such a whimsical piece of art.

    It’s a lovely day in Spring and the fair has just started. The street is lined with stalls selling an abundance of food, games and handicraft, as the crowd is slowly streaming in, and there is even a dog who wants to join the party.

    This work brings back such delightful memories of visiting a carnival with friends or family, having so much fun, and always returning home with something new.

    This oil on panel is done by Gerhard Karlmark (1905-1976), who works are displayed in museums across Sweden.

    It is signed on the lower right, and is complemented by its gilt frame.

    Size: 39 x 47 cm (including frame)

  • By the Boardwalk

    Sold

    SOLD

    This charming artwork of a boardwalk set against a river by a coastal town brings so much lightness and serenity to one’s heart.

    It is a cloudy day, and thick clouds have filled the light blue sky. The wind is blowing strongly in the air – causing the lush greenery in the background to sway, and making the water’s surface uneven.

    This gouache painting is uniquely characterised by wonderful blocks of colours as well as broad and textured brushstrokes. Through this, the artist has been able to skilfully produce forms in a somewhat distinct yet abstract manner; and the sweeping motion in which the brushworks have been applied breathe so much life and vigour to the overall artwork.

    It is housed in white card mount and a blue stained wood frame which picks up on the colours within the painting beautifully. The painting is glazed (there is a layer of perspex between the frame and the painting) to ensure longevity.

    Size: 56 x 48cm (including frame)

  • Chinoiserie

    Sold

    A beautiful and serene still life that captured our hearts upon first sight.

    Presented atop a mahogany wooden table is an arrangement of flowers in a vase, a sugar pot, and and 2 European vintage ceramic figurines of a boy and girl with animals around them.

    What is so captivating about this work is that it has elements of both East and West – the artist has painted a dutch Delft blue and white chinoiserie porcelain vase that has some yellow overtones that further enhances its beauty.

    The objects are set against a beautifully painted backdrop that picks up the colours of the flowers and the ornaments around it.

    Very fine and soft brushstrokes have been used to create a smooth and delicate effect to the work, and there is great fluency from one subject to the next.

    The artist has also skillfully captured the reflections of the objects cast against the wood grains of the table top.

    Housed in its original frame, this is one of our larger artworks, and measures 88 x 69cm including the frame.
