    £585

    Sold

    Free UK Shipping Only.

    A vibrant and lively mid-century modernist-style landscape, executed in oil on canvas and dated 1957.

    The composition sweeps across the canvas, presenting lush green fields dominating the foreground, while rolling hills and blue mountains stand in the background beneath a cloudy blue sky.

    Semi-abstract in nature, all realistic details have been omitted and there is a strong focus on expressive brushstrokes and colour.

    The artist has reduced the composition down to blocks of contrasting colours, as rich and saturated shades of greens and blues interplay dynamically, invoking a sense of depth and movement. Swift, expressive brushstrokes infuse the scene with energy, capturing the essence of the landscape in a captivatingly semi-abstract manner.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a well-suited wood frame with an inner canvas lining. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has a scuff to its top edge (as shown in the close up photo) but this is not visible from the front and does not detract from its overall attractiveness.

    Size: 60 x 80 cm (including frame)

  • Patched

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A large and very striking mid century modernist abstract composition in oil, painted onto canvas around the 1960s.

    The painting is full of textural detail, as the artist has added an aggregate to certain areas (possibly sand or bitumen), creating a gritty and three dimensional effect in those areas. In other areas, large swathes of smooth creamy paint have been applied, in a restricted colour palette. The artist has worked in deep, rich tones and has used a myriad of curved forms to create the composition. There appears to be two figures, with one perhaps embracing another. However, the artist has chosen to focus on the formal elements of the picture such as shape, form and line, resulting in this largely abstract picture.

    This oil on canvas  is presented in a very well suited gilt frame. The painting has some light craquelure to the areas of impasto but the paint layer is very stable as shown in the close photos. It is in very good vintage condition overall.

    Size: 82 x 71cm (including frame)

  • The Dancers

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A brilliantly executed abstract figurative oil composition, painted in 1959 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.

    Set against a backdrop filled with blocks of contrasting colours including shades of brown, orange, cream, and black – two figures, one black and one white, emerge in a dance-like embrace.

    Painted in an abstract manner, the figures are devoid of realistic details, yet their expressive forms convey a sense of fluidity.

    The warmth emanating from the rich colour palette infuses the composition with a sense of energy and radiance. Short and expressive brushstrokes animate the figures, imbuing them with a dynamic quality that contrasts with the static setting.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has a small nick to the bottom edge, as shown in the close up photo. No issues otherwise.

    The sculpture seen in the photos is also available to purchase and details can be viewed here.

  • Jug & Fruits

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A visually striking geometric abstract mid-century still life composition, executed in oil onto board.

    The painting features a jug and some fruits placed across a red surface, and set against a dark muted green backdrop.

    Drawing inspiration from elements of cubism and geometric abstraction, the artist has masterfully deconstructed and fragmented the scene down to distinct blocks of contrasting colours and bold outlines that interact with one another. Each respective shape seems to occupy its own distinct space, yet together they form a cohesive and harmonious whole.

    The use of contrasting rich shades highlights the three-dimensional qualities of each object, whilst simultaneously emphasising the two-dimensional flatness of the board.

    Furthermore, the expressive and distinct brushstrokes add a beautiful textural quality to the painting.   

    This oil on board is housed in a stunning wide-profile  frame that further elevates the painting. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has minor paint losses but this suits its overall vintage look.

  • Fleck

    £900

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A small but very engaging and brilliantly executed abstract composition, painted in oil onto canvas and dated 1973.

    Set against a tranquil backdrop of muted taupe and white tones, the interplay of fluid shapes painted in distinct vibrant colours commands our attention and makes this painting a visual delight.

    Rich shades of orange and red exuding warmth and liveliness dominate the canvas, together with pure white, black, and forest green shades. These colours are arranged in a dynamic yet harmonious manner, evoking a sense of balance and cohesion.

    Furthermore, the painting features a smooth finish that enhances its overall aesthetic appeal.

    This oil on canvas comes unframed. The painting is in excellent vintage condition.

  • Essence of Earth

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A minimalist abstract composition that captivates with its simplicity and subtle complexity, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1970 on verso.

    In the lower section, a solid block of forest green grounds the composition, representing the earth. A faint black line hovers above, suggestive of a horizon. Above this line, a serene block of cream fills the top half of the canvas, evoking a vast expanse of sky. At the pinnacle, a luminous white circle glows softly, reminiscent of a sun.

    While abstract in nature, the painting subtly suggests a landscape bathed in the light of a radiant sun. Its minimalistic composition and gradients echo the emotive resonance often found in the works of American abstract painter Mark Rothko (1903-1970), inviting viewers to contemplate the interplay of light, space, and colour.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary silver painted frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    Size: 82.5 x 61 cm (including frame)

    A lively and captivating large landscape composition, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1960.

    This scenic painting depicts a figure strolling through a park enveloped by tall trees. Semi-abstract in nature, all realistic details have been omitted and there is a strong focus on expressive brushstrokes and colour.

    The deliberate use of a limited and rich palette comprising shades of yellow, green, and black enhances the composition’s cohesion, while allowing the brushstrokes to take centre stage.

    Long sweeping bold strokes have been confidently executed, imbuing the scene with dynamism.

    This large oil on canvas is housed is a stunning wood frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has minor scuffs.

  • Hooray

    £210

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A mid century modernist wrought iron sculpture mounted onto a wooden base, and dated 1980.

    This very uplifting and well crafted wrought iron sculpture depicts two figures, one holding the other up. The upper figure appears to be suspended in the air from certain angles, but has one connection to the lower figure. There is playful experimentation with different shapes and forms, creating different points of interest depending on the viewing angle.

    The subject of the piece is joyful, and hopeful – one figure is lifting the other presumably in celebration. It is a reminder of good times and being in high spirits.

    The wooden base is monogrammed and dated.

    Height: 50 cm

  • Portrait of a Troubled Soul

    £1,065

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    This mid-century expressive and emotive oil portrait delves into the depths of the human psyche with an intriguing depiction of a male figure in a brown shirt.

    The face of the figure appears slightly distorted, contributing to an atmosphere of unease and ambiguity. Through the semi-abstract portrayal, the artist captures the complex and often contradictory nature of human emotions and thoughts.

    The painting’s expressive brushwork is forceful and emotive, adding layers of intensity to the composition. Reminiscent of the works of Irish-born British figurative painter Francis Bacon (1909-1992), the piece explores themes of inner turmoil.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary gilt frame. The painting has light craquelure at its top right section but the paint layer is stable. The frame edges have some losses but this is in keeping with its overall distressed vintage style.

    Size: 65.5 x 54 cm (including frame)

  • Set of 4 Oils

    £1,100

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A small but powerful set of abstract compositions by British contemporary artist Lloyd Durling, painted with oil onto linen panel. Each one signed, titled and dated on reverse.

    Central to these paintings are an intense engagement with oil stick and graphite on linen that explore the interface between painting, drawing and collage. There is a balance between expressive play and tight control and with this comes an expanse of associations that push beyond simple categorisations of abstraction or scale. The information in each painting, given by gesture or mark, is reduced to a fleeting register on the surface, as if each mark has to count. 

    All paintings and frames in excellent condition. Each one of these is a one-off unique hand painted piece, so the set of 4 will be available until any one of the pieces is purchased individually. If you prefer to buy an individual piece, you can do so here.

  • Hill Side

    Sold

    SOLD.

    An expressive mid-century landscape composition, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The composition presents a panoramic view of rolling hills lined with shrubs. Semi-abstract in nature, all realistic details have been omitted and our attention is drawn to painterly elements such as expressive brushstroke and colour.

    Bold, confident swathes of paint have been applied to the canvas, creating a beautiful textural quality and a rhythmic flow to the scene.

    The artist has thoughtfully selected a limited palette comprising muted shades of green, yellow, and beige, that seamlessly blend and subtly transition in colour, evoking a soothing quality to the painting.

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

  • Desert Lands

    £395

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very well executed mid century modernist landscape composition, painted in oil onto canvas board.

    This painting features warm earthy tones, carefully applied brushwork and a contrast of angular forms against softer curved forms. The sandy, desert tones are punctuated by areas of dark brown and green, creating great depth and intensity to the picture. Our eyes are initially drawn to the bold, angular planes in the foreground, but are then lead away into the softer rolling sands of the background. In the distance the horizon is broken up by a row of monuments.

    The palette and subject of this painting makes it highly versatile. It is familiar yet we can’t quite pinpoint a particular place, lending a timelessness to this piece.

    This oil on canvas board is presented in a gilt frame. Both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.

  • The Bouquet

    £640

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very unique and vivid mid century semi abstract oil composition, painted on board and dated 1964 on the reverse.

    In this composition  we see a vase of flowers which have been painted in a semi-abstract modernist style. The artist has intentionally chosen now to focus on the realistic forms of the florals, and has instead drawn attention to the shapes, colours and lines of the bouquet. Its formal elements are echoed in the background which appears to be the framework of a window, creating a really fun and striking picture. The bright colours contrast against the bold, black outlines and the starkly white vase.

    This brilliantly executed oil on board is housed in a wide profile wood frame with decorative carvings. The painting is in good vintage condition, and the frame has some minor scuffing as shown.

  • Black & White

    £145

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking and beautifully crafted and painted wooden sculpture by Swedish designer Anna Efverlund.

    Modernist in form, it focuses on abstraction, fragmentation and non-representation. We are encouraged instead to appreciate the essence of its shape, colour and pattern.  An almost hemispherical shape sits on a thin leg, and as we rotate it we see that one end of it ends on a flat edge. Its texture is beautifully smooth, and the black and white stripes create a striking effect.

    Height: 12cm
    Width: 19.5cm
    Depth: 6cm

  • All Together

    £445

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A richly textured mid-century abstract figurative painting, executed in oil onto canvas.

    Simple yet effective in its composition, a group of enigmatic figures takes center stage, and are set against a light grey background.

    The figures, presented as silhouettes, are defined by striking black outlines that lend them an air of mystery and abstraction. Utilising contrasting tones of brown, yellow, and blue, and these subtle hints of colours help to convey a sense of depth and also emphasise the three-dimensional qualities of the figures. The artist has also skillfully applied loose and textured brushstrokes – using the impasto technique to create a visually raw and tactile surface

    This oil on canvas is housed in a stunning gold frame with an inner grey border that suits the painting perfectly. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Cradle

    £915

    Available

    Free UK Shipping Only.

    A large and striking mid century abstract modernist composition in oil, painted onto canvas.

    In this composition, a series of geometric shapes in red, orange, yellow and white are set against a black background. This juxtaposition of the bright colours  against the black immediately captures our attention, encouraging us to analyse the shapes that have been cleverly applied to the canvas. A recognisable figurative shape appears, seemingly a parent cradling a baby. Although the shapes are distinctly large flat planes, within each of the planes there is visible texture. We see evidence of the artist’s palette knife, moving the oil paint around the surface and leaving areas of impasto.

    There is very interesting contrast between focus on formal elements (shape, colour and line) and the tender subject which the artist has chosen to capture.

    This large and masterful modernist oil with its clever composition and its rich and vivid palette would certainly make for a statement piece in any interior.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary black frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some scuffing but it suits the general style of the piece.

    Size: 89.5 x 69 cm (including frame)

    Free domestic (UK) shipping. As this artwork 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, please contact us and we will see what we can do.

  • Transference

    £615

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A captivating abstract triptych composition that unfolds across three individual panels, painted in acrylic onto panel and dated 2010.

    Abstract in nature, the painting resembles the organic elegance of curved tree branches.

    The artist has used a sophisticated colour palette where hints of black intertwine with warm tones of brown as well as delicate shades of grey. The colours weave into one another fluidly, and each panel is very well-balanced.

    These acrylic in panels come in a set of 3, and are each fixed within a complementary wood frame. Both paintings and frames are in excellent vintage condition.

  • City Tour

    £650

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A lively and energetic city street scene composition, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1998 by Swedish artist Uno Vallman (1913-2004) whose works are included in the Swedish National Museum, the Swedish Modern Museum, and also in the collections of Lyndon Johnson, Jimmy Carter, and the Tessin Institute in Paris.

    Containing elements of fauvism and expressionism,  this striking painting presents a bustling street filled with people strolling the sidewalk. Behind them lies a street with blue cars, followed by a view of the city skyline.

    An array of rich and uplifting colours as well as distinct energetic and intuitive brushstrokes fill the canvas, imbuing the work with a sense of dynamism. The artist has also used black outlines that provide a sketch-like quality that emphasises the silhouettes of the buildings, cars, and figures.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary robust frame with gold leaves, and with an inner linen border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some scuffs to its edges.

  • The Green Jetty

    £455

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very well executed semi abstract mid century modernist composition, painted in oil onto canvas and dated 63.

    Despite its semi abstract composition, we can just about make out the form of a jetty. Board and gestural swathes of creamy paint have been applied to the canvas, creating this textured and expressionist composition. The colours and brushstrokes blend beautifully into one another, creating a gentle but distinct gradient of shades as the composition shifts from sky to sea to land. The artist has reduced the structure of the jetty down to a seemingly simple but very effective series of brushstrokes in green, with outlines in black.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has very minor scuffing.

  • Coalesce

    £450

    Available

    RESERVED until 19th Jan

    Free UK shipping only.

    A very large mid century modernist composition, painted in oil onto board and dated 1959.

    In this large abstract composition we see a myriad of shapes coalescing and connecting to form a whole. The forms present seem to act on each other – putting pressure on each other, shrinking each other, enlarging another, as if the forms themselves were active participants. Each shape has a role in the total organism, each one is holding the other up, supporting the whole. As a result the picture has a palpable energy – the forms and shapes almost appear to be moving around the canvas, shapeshifting and amalgamating.

    This large abstract painting is presented in  a grey mount and a champagne frame. There are some minor marks on the painting and mount.

    Size: 73.5 x 89cm (including frame)

  • Enigma

    £475

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An emotive and skillfully executed mid-century abstract figurative composition, painted in oil onto canvas.

    The piece features a figure seated on a chair, its form abstracted. Striking in its simplicity, all realistic details have been omitted, leaving only the essential elements of brushstroke and colour to evoke a sense of contemplative solitude.

    The figure, painted in white with subtle pink undertones, sits with hands clasped together, subtly conveying a quiet moment of reflection. The silhouette is boldly outlined in a striking red, adding a dynamic contrast and accentuating the form’s presence.

    The background, seamlessly merging with the figure, is a energetic blend of grey, white, and pink undertones. The brushstrokes used are expressive and loose, conveying a powerful representation of the artist’s emotional experience.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary slim silver frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has very minor scuffing.

  • Priests in Greece

    £655

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A large and striking mid-century modernist painting, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The composition presents a charming street scene at Patmos in Greece. In the foreground, two priests in black robes first draw our attention. In the background of the painting, a figure and a donkey can be seen strolling on a pathway lined with white buildings with colourful arches.

    Painted in a distinctly modernist ethos, the artist has flattened the respective forms, reducing them down to blocks of contrasting shades to demonstrate depth and a sense of space to the painting.

    A spectrum of uplifting colours have been used, and the brushstrokes are gentle, evoking a soothing and relaxing quality to the painting.

    Furthermore, by leaving areas of the canvas exposed, the artist’s creative use of negative space accentuates the shapes of the figure and objects, drawing our attention to their distinct form.

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

    Size:  85 x 75 cm (including frame)

  • In the Shadows

    £750

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An outstanding mid-century abstract figurative painting, executed in oil onto board.

    A figure standing in an interior setting, with one hand resting on a raised platform, punctuates the center of the composition.

    The figure, depicted in a fleeting silhouette, stands in the shadows, revealing only half of its form. Abstract in nature, all realistic details are deliberately omitted, allowing the viewer to focus on the expressive and powerful brushwork, as well as the rich and limited colour palette that evokes a sense of mystery and introspection.

    This masterpiece is a dance of contrasts, where the interplay of light and dark takes center stage and helps to demonstrate depth and balance to the painting.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame that illuminates the painting. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has very minor scuffing, in keeping with its overall vintage style.

  • Altea

    £530

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A brilliantly executed semi-abstract mid century modernist oil composition, painted in 1959 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.

    In this composition we can see two figures, each sitting on a donkey. There is an inscription on the reverse which locates the scene to Altea, in Spain. Morsing has abstracted the figures and animals, using a restrained palette of black, green, yellow and white, and omitting all realistic detail. Instead, multi-directional brushstrokes come together carefully and in  a very considered manner to create the forms we see.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame with red undertones. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has losses and marks to its edges as shown.

  • Conjuring Blue

    £300

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A small but powerful abstract composition by British contemporary artist Lloyd Durling, painted in oil onto linen panel. Signed, titled and dated on reverse.

    Central to this painting is an intense engagement with oil on linen that explore the interface between painting, drawing and collage. There is a balance between expressive play and tight control and with this comes an expanse of associations that push beyond simple categorisations of abstraction or scale. The information in each painting, given by gesture or mark, is reduced to a fleeting register on the surface, as if each mark has to count. 

    The idea of topography is of central importance and is explored through continuing walking projects. These serve as opportunities to gather diverse source material through physical and emotional interactions with whichever environment chosen to traverse. It amounts to a kind of urban and rural wandering where the information gathered is reinterpreted or reimagined feeding into a deep connection with landscape, arrangements of ancient monuments, light, shadow and forgotten histories – all of these elements find a way into the work.

    Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

    Flux

    £470

    Available

    Free UK, Europe & Singapore shipping.

    A wonderfully rhythmic mid century abstract composition, painted onto board.

    We get a distinct sense that the artist is painting a visual manifestation of a type of movement or motion. The artist has eliminated all naturalistic forms, concentrating instead on the trajectory and direction of the movements. The painting has a limited palette of white, black, grey and green, putting a stark emphasis on the synthesis that the artist achieves with the looped, flowing and intertwined curves. He is perhaps suggesting the passage of time as well as movement in space.

    This acrylic on board is housed in its original silver frame with red undertones. There are minor stains on the top left on the painting, but the piece is in very good vintage condition overall. There are minor scuffs to the frame.

  • Modernist Ballerinas

    £895

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An outstanding mid-century figurative composition, executed in oil onto canvas by the established Swedish artist Fabian Lundqvist (1913-1989), whose works have been represented in many public collections in Sweden.

    The painting captures a scene of two ballerinas surrounded by an abstract background. On the ballerinas, rhe artist’s brushstrokes are gentle and soft, reflecting a careful attention to detail. Intentionally working with a limited colour palette, the artist has reduced the area around the ballerinas to angular planes in different gradients of brown.. Details such as the small but striking red lips of the figures, as well as the layout of flat shapes and planes are typical of Lundqvist’s style.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary silver frame with an inner linen-lined border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some scuffs as shown in the close ups

  • Painting, Walking, Eating

    £300

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A small but powerful abstract composition by British contemporary artist Lloyd Durling, painted in oil onto linen panel. Signed, titled and dated on reverse.

    Central to this painting is an intense engagement with oil on linen that explore the interface between painting, drawing and collage. There is a balance between expressive play and tight control and with this comes an expanse of associations that push beyond simple categorisations of abstraction or scale. The information in each painting, given by gesture or mark, is reduced to a fleeting register on the surface, as if each mark has to count. 

    The idea of topography is of central importance and is explored through continuing walking projects. These serve as opportunities to gather diverse source material through physical and emotional interactions with whichever environment chosen to traverse. It amounts to a kind of urban and rural wandering where the information gathered is reinterpreted or reimagined feeding into a deep connection with landscape, arrangements of ancient monuments, light, shadow and forgotten histories – all of these elements find a way into the work.

    Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

    Size: 15 x 20 cm (including frame)
