  • Tree Grove

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A very large and very striking mid century oil painted on canvas depicting a tree grove by a brook. A deep, rich, earth colour palette has been used – dark greens and browns and oranges are contrasted against the white of the brook and the sky, creating a wonderful sense of depth in the painting. Differing textures can be found across the large canvas, with some areas where the artist has allowed the canvas to show through, and other areas where thick layers of paint and impasto can be found. There is raw quality to the overall composition, and the artist has captured the essence of the natural landscape – the movement of the water in the brook, the light of the sky, and the earthiness of the grass and the trees.

    The painting is housed in a simple wood frame, which suits it very well and gives it a slightly more contemporary edge. The large size and expressive style of this painting would make it a real statement feature piece in any interior. Painting and frame are in good vintage condition.

  • Bloom

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A large and visually striking modernist style floral still life composition, executed in oil onto canvas.

    Painted in an expressionist manner, the artwork is full of texture and character as it depicts a blooming pot of flowers placed against a blue coloured background.

    Our eyes are immediately drawn to the flowers as their lighter shades of white and orange are contrasted against the deep and rich colour palette of dark blues greens and browns.

    The artist displays his painterly skills, using the impasto technique by applying thick layers of paint such that it stands proud from the surface and adds a textural feel, as well as confidently executing long and bold brushstrokes to creating a composition full of dynamism.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a deep-profile frame with 2 linen-lined windows that pairs perfectly with the painting. There are some very small areas of paint loss on the painting but the work is otherwise in very good vintage condition.

  • Mountain Top

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A very large mid century modernist abstract landscape, painted in oil onto board.

    A range of patterns, shapes and colours fill the canvas, making up an abstracted landscape that appears to be houses on the side a mountain. This large and well-executed painting draws on a range of modernist concepts and influences including cubism and abstraction. As we spend time to study its colours, forms and play on geometric shapes, there is more than meets the eye.

    A figure to the lower right corner punctuates this painting perfectly, drawing attention the fact that although mostly abstracted, this painting still has representational elements.

    At over a metre in length, this striking abstract oil would certainly make a statement in any interior. It is housed in its original mid century frame. There is some paint loss to the left edge of the painting (as shown in photos) but this does not detract from the overall attractiveness of the piece. Otherwise, both frame and painting are in good vintage condition.

  • Fauvist Landscape

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A large mid century oil on canvas of a semi abstract landscape, painted in 1955.

    Reminiscent of the 20th century modernist style of ‘fauvism’, this painting features the classic fauve feature of separating colour from its descriptive, representational purpose and allowing it to exist on the canvas as an independent element. in this picture, the colour establishes a structure within the work without being true to the natural world. Its brushstrokes also carry the fauve style of being short, separated and unblended, creating a sense of movement within the picture.

    The painting is housed in a very complementary dark blue floater frame. This frame allows the edges of the canvas to be in full view, with a small gap between the canvas and the frame, giving it a more contemporary look.  The painting and frame are in good vintage condition with no outstanding issues.

    Size: 57 x 76 cm (including frame)

  • Farmland

    Sold

    SOLD.

    Dated 1944, this mid century oil on board features broad, expressive brushwork and a post impressionist style. Reminiscent of works by artists such as Van Gogh, this oil depicts the natural landscape but has a more personal use of colour and brushwork that express an emotional response to the landscape, rather than a  purely realistic response.  There is a real sense of light and movement within the picture, created through a wonderful harmony of colours.

    This large painting is housed within a  wide profile gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some general scuffing which is commensurate with its age.

  • Mid Century Man

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free UK Shipping Only. 

    A large and striking mid century portrait in oil, painted in 1945. Executed in a post impressionist style, the artist has used non naturalistic colours for both the figure and the background. The background has largely been painted in sections of colour blocks, creating a sense of depth through geometric shapes.

    The subject matter is focused  – a single male figure with a cane stands in a street by a street lamp. He has stopped his walk and is standing casually, listening and looking to something in front of him (which could be us, the viewer). His hand is placed casually in his left pocket, legs crossed, shoulders slumped, and cigarette hanging loosely between his lips.

    Although the figure has been painted in a looser and more expressive manner compared to the flat planes of the background, the artist has mirrored the colours in his suit to the colours in the background, creating a satisfying harmony within the picture.

    This painting is housed in its original mid century gilt and wood frame, and is in excellent vintage condition.

  • Spring Garden

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A delightful and lively picturesque landscape composition, executed in oil in 1948.

    The painting depicts a partial view of a balcony overlooking a well-manicured garden filled with colourful blooms and lush trees, as well as views of the calm blue sea that lies beyond it. The white chair in the foreground as well as garden furniture in the middle of the painting are empty, almost inviting and tempting the viewer to take a seat and enjoy the charming spring view.

    Executed with expressive and painterly brushstrokes in vibrant and saturated colours including green and orange, this artwork is sure to brighten any interior setting and uplift one’s mood.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a beautifully patterned wood frame with carvings. There are light scattered areas of craquelure (fine cracks in the paint, commensurate with its age), as well as a small area of paint loss along the left edge of the work (as shown in the photos). Craquelure is not in itself harmful to the painting, and can add to the ‘quality’ of patina that only age can bring.

  • The Cliff

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A large and expressive mid century landscape composition, executed in oil in a semi-abstract manner.

    Upon first glance, our eye our drawn to the left corner of the painting depicting houses on the edge of a cliff. These darker shades first capture our attention, as our eyes then shift focus, making a glance towards the right side of the work, as the colours transition to lighter shades.

    Expressive and painterly brushstrokes fill the canvas; and the artist has chosen a restrained palette comprising varying shades of brown, yellow and blue. These mixtures of dark and light tones not only make the work well-balanced, but imbue the painting with both a moody and uplifting feel.

    This oil on canvas is in excellent vintage condition. It is housed in its original mid century wood frame with visible grains, and with an inner silver and linen lining. There are some minor marks and scuffs on the frame, commensurate for its age.

  • Chalk & Blue

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A beautifully textured coastal oil painting. The artist has used a palette knife to apply the paint, creating areas of impasto (where the paint is applied thickly such that it stands proud from the surface). The artist has worked the paint dynamically, using quick and successive strokes to create this expressive and tactile piece. A soothing palette of blues, greens, whites, with orange and yellow details, imbues this painting with a thoroughly calming effect, and makes one think of lake holidays in the summertime.

    The oil on canvas is housed in a very complementary wood and gilt frame. It is in very good vintage condition.

  • The Nun

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A brilliantly executed large mid century portrait of a nun, executed in oil.

    Displaying elements of abstraction, the artist has flattened and modified the form of the nun, reducing it down to distinct planes of contrasting colours.

    The artwork skilfully emphasises the two dimensional flatness of the canvas, and also displays the artist’s talents in harmonising geometric shapes and an array of muted pastel and earthy colours to create this beautiful work of art.

    This oil on canvas is in excellent vintage condition. It is housed in a complementary dark grainy wood frame with an inner gilt and linen lining. There are minor marks and scuffs on the frame.

  • Sunday Mornings

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A wonderfully panoramic and picturesque large oil on board, dated 1944. Beautiful blue skies look down upon a rural farm scene, with cows lazing amongst the green fields. Post-impressionist elements stand out within this picture, such as the blue that the artist has used to render the way the light hits the trees.

    At almost a metre in width, this large yet calming landscape would make a statement piece in any interior.

    This painting comes housed in a gilt frame with black staining details, and is in excellent vintage condition.

  • An Encounter

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A large and striking mid century oil painting of a standing figure, painted onto canvas in a distinctly modernist style.

    The artist has focussed in on a single figure – a man stands in an alley, looking straight on at us. What would normally be quite confronting is softened and made friendly – the man stands casually with his hands in his pockets. Although his expression is undiscernible, we get a sense that this is a friendly and familiar encounter, someone we know, a father, a grandfather, an uncle.

    The figure is painted against an abstract background, but we can just about make out buildings on either side. There seems to be a luminosity and reflection in the way the artist has painted the background, perhaps a suggestion that it has just rained.

    This large and beautiful semi-abstract portrait is housed in its original mid century frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some age toning to the fabric, as shown in the photos, but this is commensurate with its age.

  • Women at Work

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A very large and very unique mid century oil, painted on to canvas.

    Painted in an expressionist manner, the artist has captured the hustle and bustle of an open street market. Several groups of figures fill the canvas, punctuated by a row of red trees to the left hand side. The artist has used a wonderfully earthy palette of rusty red and browns, which gives the painting a lovely homely feel. Consciously leaving out specific realistic details, the artist plays with colour, shape and form. As a viewer are eyes are left to explore these formal elements, which come together effectively and harmoniously, giving us a very palpable sense of what is going on and the feel of the scene.

    At almost a metre in height, this large painting is housed in its original mid century frame. Both painting and frame are in good vintage condition.

  • Chic

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A joyful and visually striking semi-abstract mid century oil portrait by Swedish painter Hans Osswald, whose works have been exhibited at the National Museum in Stockholm as well as the Malmö Museum.

    The painting depicts a silhouette of a stylishly dressed woman wearing tie, set against a well-coloured background.

    A myriad of rich and bold shades have been used to create this well-balanced composition; and the artist has skilfully used several layers as well as blocks of contrasting tones to reveal form, texture and interest.

    Broad and expressive brushstrokes that have been executed so confidently fill the canvas, adding a lovely texture and imbuing the work with liveliness. 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 gilt frame. There are scattered areas of craquelure, and also small areas of paint loss to the lower right corner of the painting. However, this is in line with its vintage feel and does not detract from the overall charm of the painting.

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

  • Mother

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free UK Shipping Only. 

    A large and very unique gouache painting of a mother feeding her baby, painted in a distinctly modernist style.

    The subject of the painting – a mother breastfeeding her child – is an intimate, personal one. Yet intriguingly, the style in which the artist had chosen to depict this scene seems to remove this element of intimacy, at least at first glance.  What we notice at first are the lines and shapes rather than the actual scene.  The artist has created a geometric effect within the picture, playing with shape, form, line, colour and pattern. Bold outlines in black demarcate each of the coloured sections, imbuing it with an architectural effect.

    The painting is housed in its original mid century gilt frame with an inner fabric lined slip.  The painting is in good vintage condition. There is some age toning to the inner section of the frame, and some minor scuffing to the outer edges. The painting is set behind a thick pane of glass.

  • Craftsmanship

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A large and very striking still life composition that has been painted onto board. The artist has used a variety of media, including oil and gouache, to render this detailed composition. The surface of the board has been painted over with a matte textured white, and on top of that the artist has used oil, gouache and watercolour to paint the objects, resulting in a very striking colour palette that really stands out from the surface, while at the same time achieving an incredible level of detail. The choice of tools and objects have created a very well balanced horizontal composition, while at the time drawing the viewer in and encouraging us to inspect all the details. The painting is housed in a greenish-blue wood slip that frames it very well, giving it a contemporary feel. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Autumn Walk

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A dynamic expressionist oil landscape painting of 2 figures strolling through a winding country road pathway on a fine autumn day.

    The painting has been executed in a semi-abstract manner, with swift and scribble-like brushstrokes used to depict the foliage and water stream.

    Although the energetic brushstrokes imbue the work with movement and energy, the beautiful autumnal and soft colour palette  brings an overall sense of warmth and tranquillity to the painting.

    This oil on canvas is in excellent vintage condition. It is housed in a distressed silver frame with red tints.

  • Marseille

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free UK shipping.

    An outstanding large painting featuring the Old Port of Marseille, France, painted in 1962.

    Soft, short and swift brushstrokes have been used to paint this charming scene where boats and yachts fill the port, with buildings depicted faintly in the distant background.

    This artwork draws on a range of modernist concepts and influences including cubism and abstraction. Blocks of contrasting colours harmonise perfectly,  giving to the various forms while creating a sense of depth and space.

    The muted palette of this painting with its soft greys and blues create a gentle and pleasant effect on our senses, while at the same time reflecting the bustling heart of Marseille.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary wood frame with a fabric lines border and an inner gilt window. Both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition, with some typical ageing to the frame as shown in photos.

  • The Fortress

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A bold and striking mid-century modernist style landscape composition of a hidden fortress, rendered in oil.

    Distinct, urgent and and bold brushstrokes have been executed in an invigorating and confident manner; and the bold outlines on the trees, fortress and bridge further accentuates its three dimensional qualities.

    A rich and restrained colour palette comprising varying shades of green, cream and black have been used; and the artist has wonderfully layered and paired contrasting shades to not only demonstrate a sense of depth and space, but also to add a lovely textural effect with the thick application of paint.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame. The painting is overall in good vintage condition although there are very small surface paint losses at the top of the work, but the paint is very stable overall.

  • The Dining Table

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A large and elegant mid century still life painting, executed in oil.

    The painting gives us a glimpse into a decorated interior setting. Placed atop a wooden dining table sit 2 blossoming flower vases, plates as well as a glass carafe.

    Modernist elements are certainly present in this painting, with the artist skilfully contorting reality, while using contrasting shades to create depth and a sense of space.

    The soft pastel hues as well as fine and delicate brushstrokes deeply complement one another, imbuing the work with a sense of calm and serenity.

    The artist shows off his painterly skills, as he wonderfully captures the translucent nature of the glass carafe and sheer window curtains.

  • Still Life with Fruit

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A large, richly coloured, long still life in a unique mid century frame, measuring almost a metre in length. Striking vessels in emerald green, tangerine orange, and midnight blue sit amongst gem like apples.  This still life features an intense and jewel like colour palette, creating a real sense of luminosity and three dimensionality within the painting and the depicted objects.

    The painting is housed in a beautiful mid century textured white frame with an inner off white and dark grey border. The painting has some minor craquelure, which is typical for an oil of this age, but overall the paint layer is very stable. The frame has some minor scuffs to the inner border but is in good vintage condition overall.

  • Ibiza

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free UK Shipping.

    A large and striking mid century oil on canvas, painted in an expressionist manner. The artist has intentionally focused on the harmony of colours as well as balancing shape and form, as opposed to any intricate details. The figures have been paired right down to simple shapes, as have the details of the landscape. There is a great sense of rhythm and balance in this picture. The large size and rich, vivid colour palette in textured brushstrokes would make this painting stand out in any interior.

    The painting is housed in its original mid century hessian frame which suits it just wonderfully. Both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition, with only some very light scuffing to the edges of the frame, which certainly does not detract from the overall attractiveness of the piece.

  • The Cook

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free UK Shipping.

    A very large and vivid mid century kitchen interior scene, painted in oil onto board. The artist has used large, expressive brushstrokes in this painting, adding lots of texture and movement. The scene that the artist has chosen to paint is a heart-warming, and homely one – I’m sure many of us have memories of our mothers or grandmothers busily cooking away at the stove, preparing meals for us that we can still remember the distinct taste of.

    This large, expressive oil is housed in its original mid century wood frame with a fabric lined border. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    SOLD

    Free domestic (UK) shipping. As this painting is very large, it is unlikely that we will be able to ship it internationally. If you are very interested and are located outside of the UK, contact us and we will see what we can do.

    A very large, striking modernist Swedish artwork painted in oil onto canvas. A minimalist composition of trees on either side of a path forms this picture, painted in a very restrained palette. This piece is perhaps a preparatory study for a final painting – there is a distinct rawness to the almost monochrome palette, where paint has been applied very thinly to the canvas.  Yet there remains a palpable beauty to this rawness – the distinct outlines and simplicity of the paint application allow us to focus our attention on the balance of the shapes and forms, including the way the branches of the trees weave in and out of each other, creating structure and pattern within the picture.

    This original oil is housed in a beautiful distressed greenish-grey frame, which has a rough and unrefined look to it which we think suits the painting very well. The painting is in very good vintage condition. The frame is in a ‘distressed’ style and so has imperfections that are intentional. The frame is slightly big for the canvas and so there is a slight gap between the canvas and the frame but this gap is very minimal.

    Size: 75.5 x 85.5 cm (including frame)

  • Wheatfields

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free UK shipping.

    A large and picturesque oil painting on canvas, depicting country fields with haystacks. This textured and expressive painting has a wonderful vintage charm to it, and is reminiscent of works by the famous impressionist artist Claude Monet. The light of the sun is beautifully captured in this large oil, further accentuated by the yellow fields and the row of green trees in the background. Short and distinctive brushstrokes have created a wonderfully matte texture.

    The painting is housed in a distressed grey frame which suits the painting and its textures perfectly, and adds to its vintage charm. The painting and frame are in good vintage condition, with some scuffs and marks that are typical for a mid century painting.

    Size: 72.5 x 82.5 cm (including frame)

  • Sunlit Harbour

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A large and striking oil painting of boats docked at a quiet harbour, painted in 1958. There is a palpable serenity to this painting without it being too still – dockside buildings sit quietly in the background while a group of ducks glide serenely in the water and seagulls hover above. Nature continues to do its thing, at its own pace.

    The artist has used an array of contrasting colours and multidirectional brushstrokes to create depth in the painting. This painting is full of details for us to pick out and notice – a picture that opens up to us slowly and steadily and continues to offer something new each time we decide to look.

    The oil painting is housed in a large rustic wood frame. Both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.

  • Catch of the Day

    Sold

    SOLD

    A soothing panoramic seascape rendered in oil, featuring fishermen and their boats on the sea shore. Soft pastel tones and sweeping brushwork echo the water of the sea and the wind poignantly.  This simple composition is a pleasure to look at, with its range of blue tones evoking a calming effect.

    It is housed in a typically mid century fabric lines frame, with an inner gilt window. It is in good vintage condition, with some very minor craquelure that is commensurate with its age. The paint layer is stable overall.

    Size: 51 x 81 cm (including frame)

  • Golden Haze

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A very large and elegant seascape in oil, painted onto canvas. A warm, golden hue blankets this oil painting, imbuing it with a palpably calming, soothing effect. This skilfully executed seascape features a soft colour palette, which when viewed closely reveals a complexity in its colour blending. The artist has captured the light of the evening sun, when the sky boasts pastel hues of pink, orange, yellow and blue. Below this large expansive sky, we see a boat docked by 3 warehouses that echo the colours of the subtle evening light. The large size of the painting accentuates the panoramic effect of the seascape and would make for a wonderful resting point for tired eyes.

    The painting is housed in an equally elegant large gilt frame which illuminates the painting further. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.
