Golden Hour
Sold
SOLD
Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.
A really striking and textured panoramic landscape in oil. The painting features areas of impasto (where the paint is thickly applied, creating a three dimensional effect) as well as sgraffito ( scratching through a surface to reveal a lower layer of a contrasting colour), creating a wonderful array of techniques and textures.
The oil has been painted on wood, which has then been fixed to a wood backing which is ready to hang. The painting is in good vintage condition, with some paint losses to the outermost corners that do not detract from the painting.

Life Goes By
Sold

An outstanding and delicate gouache on paper, painted in 1940.

There is softness overflowing through the brown undertones in the work, and the painting is imbued with a sense of wonder.

Blue Waters
Sold
SOLD
Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.
A really gorgeous seascape featuring cerulean blue waters flanked by a pink cliff face. Several boats of different kinds sit on the water, forming a very visually pleasing composition and creating a sense of depth within the picture. A pastel and more mellow palette has been used for the boats, pier and cliff face, therefore drawing our initial attention and focus to the striking blue of the water. As we then allow our eyes to survey the rest of the picture, details on the boats and surrounding seascape then begin to reveal themselves.
The oil painting, (dated 1942) is housed in its original gilt and black frame, with an inner linen-lined slip. Both frame and paintings are in very good vintage condition.
Size: 46 x 54cm (including frame)

Tender Moments
Sold
SOLD
Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.
A thoroughly well-executed mid 20th century painting dated 1954. The artwork depicts two elderly women sitting beside each other on a bench. There is an air of nostalgia, and they appear to be deep in conversation, reminiscing about their life experiences.
The artist has used a lovely neutral palette of grey, beige, green and blue that harmonises very well together. The use of very short and soft brushstrokes pair excellently with the subdued tones.
The painting is in excellent vintage condition.
Size: 47 x 50cm (including frame)

Staying In
Sold
SOLD
Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.
A restful depiction in oil of a young lady perched on a balcony edge, flanked by columns on either side. She has a book in her hand, but appears to be looking towards us. There is an air of peacefulness around her – the warm rays of the sun spread gently from behind, finding their way through the soft leaves of the trees behind, lighting up the pages of her book. A vase of pink flowers sit on the balcony on the other side, providing a sense of balance to the composition of this picture and add a wonderful pop of colour.
The painting is framed beautifully in a lilac frame, picking up on the colours of the columns.
Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.
Size: 50 x 44cm (including frame)

A wonderful figure study of seated nude in watercolour and ink detailing. Hues of blue bleed into the paper, and the sanguine outline adds a a wonderful rust coloured contrast to the blue wash. It would definitely make quite a statement in any interior.

Soar
Sold
SOLD
Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.
A delicate oil on canvas depicting an eagle soaring in the sky, gliding through wheat fields with such poise.
This composition is highly well-balanced, with the area of the sky and the land having equal visual weight.
Although this bird of prey possesses impressive strength, and is known as one of the most powerful birds on the planet, the artist has chosen to capture its soft side – as there is so much lightness and grace is this composition. The use of fine and smooth brushstrokes imbue the work with a feel of gentleness; and the warm pastel colour palette create feelings of earthiness and calmness.
The artwork comes with a light wood frame with a gilt inner window, which pairs extremely well with the painting, enhancing it further. Painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.
Size: 52.5 x 60.5 cm (including frame)

Lazy Sunday
Sold
SOLD
Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.
This stunning oil painted in an impressionist style is reminiscent of works by Monet and Auguste Renoir. In this charming and pleasurable scene of a lady with her parasol drifting down the river in a long boat, we see brushwork that is rapid and broken into separate dabs in order to render the fleeting quality of light.
The painting is housed in an ornately moulded vintage gilt frame, and is in excellent vintage condition.

Three
Sold
SOLD
Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.
Painted in 1973, this quintessentially modernist painting depicts three female figures seated by the sea. The figures are almost sculptural in form, their soft curves enhanced by the contrasting hard edges of the ledge they sit on and the horizon beyond.
The painted surface has scattered areas of small losses, and there is general surface wear and marks to the panel edges. The artwork is painted in oil, and the board upon which it is painted has been set within a thick wooden panel which can be hung on its own as is.
Size: 25.5 x 51 cm (including outer panel)

The Bathers
Sold
SOLD
Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.
An expressionist scene of 2 female bathers against a watery landscape. The figures have their backs to the viewer, and we are only able to able to catch sight of the side profiles.
Bathers in art have been a long-standing tradition since the Renaissance, and this artwork in particular is reminiscent of the bathing scenes from Paul Cezanne.
The forms of the two nudes are bold and well emphasised, as their silhouettes have been outlined by thick black lines .The artist has used quick and short brushstrokes, as well as heavy impasto to create a sense of three dimensionality in this work. The orderly blocks of blue in differing shades in the background helps create the illusion of depth in this painting.
The painting is surrounded by a fantastic and robust original ash and green frame.
It is in excellent vintage condition.
Size: 77 x 62 cm (including frame)

Ashore
Sold
SOLD
Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.
This excellent semi-abstract modernist oil painting is rather unique. The colour palette is almost monochrome upon first glance, and would perfectly suit an interior with a modern décor. As we take the time to study the painting however, several other colours come to light, including purples, browns, blues, and greens. The artist has played with geometric shapes – using flat planes of colour to create a sense of depth and three dimensionality.
The painting is housed in its original silver and black painted wood frame. It is in good vintage condition, with some scuffs to the frame and small areas of surface losses to the painting (as shown in photos).

Flourish
Sold
Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.
An excellent mid 20th century still life that is so vibrant. Placed atop a table is a pot of white flowers in full bloom surrounded by other objects, and a curtain in a striking blue is hanging from behind.
Fast and swift brushstrokes dominate the painting, as its rendered in an impressionist style; and the colour palette of the work bears such elegance with its blues and whites and the silver of the frame.
This painting on board is in excellent vintage condition.
It comes with a complementary silver painted distressed frame, but do note that the board is slightly loose within the frame.

Tea Time
Sold
Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.
A simply calm and charming still life.
Laid out on a tabletop is a yellow earthen clay water jug, a copper kettle, a glass water bottle, 3 fruits, a slice of bread, and a teacup filled with tea and placed on a saucer.
Fine and detailed brushstrokes have been used to paint the objects so meticulously; and despite being laid out so smoothly on the canvas, one is still able to get a sense of the roundness and three dimensionality of the objects.
The objects are placed against a monochrome grey background that further enhances their colours, allowing it to stand out more.
The painting is housed in a robust frame, and is in excellent vintage condition. There are scattered areas of paint loss to the edges of the frame, but the uniformity of the losses have made us think this could be intentional, giving the frame that vintage ‘distressed’ effect.
Size: 52 x 60 cm (including frame)

Carmine
Sold
Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.
A richly coloured, striking oil painting of red blooms (possibly Lilies or Amaryllis – let us know if you know which!) in a glass vase. The combination of ultramarine blue of the fabric, the carmine red of the flowers and the emerald green of the stems and leaves create a striking picture. Areas of impasto (where the thick paint stands proud on the surface) add wonderful texture to this painting.
The painting is housed in a lovely nude wood frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.
Size: 49.5 x 41.5cm (including frame)

Balance
Sold
SOLD
Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.
An excellent composition of a nude study in gouache, depicting a female figure perched on a stool. There is a palpable tension within this picture. With her legs raised, the muse grips the rear legs of the stool, balancing her slender figure on the equally slender wooden stool. The simplicity of this picture is very effective – clean lines and a limited colour palette lend themselves well to this very visually pleasing composition.
Recently framed in a very complementary oak and maple frame with a white card mount, this gouache on paper is in excellent condition.
Size: 61 x 46.5 cm (including frame)

Heaven
Sold
SOLD
Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.
This idyllic oil painting of a pastoral landscape is the epitome of tranquillity and calm. A group of birds soar overhead , leading our eyes over the expanse of warm yellow fields towards the silhouettes of trees and cottages, and then further into the mountains beyond. The composition is very well balanced, with the sky and land taking up equal proportions, adding to the sense of harmony and expansiveness within the picture. A tractor is seen in the foreground – its purple colouring contrasting wonderfully with the warmer hues of the yellow field.
This painting, while delicate and tender, manages to capture both the beauty and vastness of the surrounding landscape. Housed in a gilt frame, it measures 40.5 x 48.5cm and is in very good vintage condition with only some light scuffing to the frame.

Acres
Sold
Free shipping to Europe, UK and Singapore.
The serenity of nature is widely celebrated in this artwork, as it presents a landscape scene taken in Österlen – a region in Sweden well known for its natural environment.
What is striking is the horizontalness in the work – with the vertical plains drawn, almost stacked on one another – giving depth to the work.
Despite being just a viewer to this painting, the stillness and calmness radiating from the work is so powerful, that one can be easily transported to zen state of mind.
The painting comes in its original unique frame that suits the painting perfectly. There are minor scuffs to the frame, but this is in line with its age and vintage charm.
Size: 45 x 53cm (including frame)
