    Figure in Dark Landscape

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A large and very striking mid century modernist composition in gouache, by British artist Enos Lovatt (1937-2018).

    This vibrant gouache painting showcases an abstract, expressive portrait of a figure, executed with energetic, gestural lines and a vivid colour palette.

    Dominated by electric blues, purples, reds, greens, and black, with accents of yellow, pink, and white. The intense use of colour creates a dynamic, almost chaotic atmosphere. The central figure is constructed with a loose, overlapping web of continuous, scribbled lines. The facial features—particularly the eyes—are more defined yet still fragmented, conveying a sense of complexity and introspection.

    The painting exudes intensity and vulnerability, inviting viewers to engage with the emotional landscape behind the fragmented human figure.

    The painting is presented within in a card mount and a ochre wooden frame with silver leaf detailing, and is protected behind perspex. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition. The painting has very small losses to upper corners of paper as seen in the photos.

    Enos Lovatt (1937–2018) studied at Burslem School of Art and the Royal College of Art (1959–1962) before becoming Senior Lecturer in Fine Art at Staffordshire Polytechnic until 1992. A prolific artist, he worked in oils, gouache, acrylics, ceramics, and biro, leaving behind thousands of works. He exhibited sporadically, including solo shows in City Museum and Art Gallery in Stoke-on-Trent, one man shows at the Paton and Woodstock Galleries in London and at Stafford Museum and Art Gallery.

    Much of Enos’ work on paper from the 1950s to 1970s uses gouache, often in tandem with other media. Gouache allowed his joy and passion for colour to shine. Enos’ work straddled the worlds of figurative and abstracted art as he dipped into both with equal enthusiasm.

    £650

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A large and vibrant mid century modernist composition in gouache, by British artist Enos Lvoatt (1937-2018).

    This gouache painting presents an abstract, expressionist portrait of a human face. The figure is stylised, with exaggerated features and bold, energetic lines that convey a sense of intensity and emotion.

    Dominated by deep shades of red, purple, black, and blue, with accents of vibrant yellow and cyan. These contrasting colours create a strong visual tension. Colourful lines, particularly a yellow loop and bold blue stroke, cut across the face and neck, adding dynamic movement and further abstracting the form.

    Overall, the painting feels charged with emotional intensity, inviting viewers to interpret the subject’s inner world through its bold, non-traditional portrayal.

    The painting is presented within in a card mount and a ochre wooden frame with silver leaf detailing, and is protected behind perspex. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Echoes of the Coast

    Echoes of the Coast

    £400

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A dynamic yet serene mid-century modernist coastal landscape painting, executed in oil onto board.

    The composition captures a tranquil seascape with a bold yet abstracted and simplified approach. A vivid blue sky stretches above a deep azure ocean, with small landmasses appearing in the distance. The foreground presents rocky terrain with dynamic, gestural strokes of earthy tones—rich browns, and hints of purple and white—contrasting with the bright greens of greenery.

    Executed in a modernist style, the painting embraces expressive and slightly abstracted forms rather than realistic details. The colours are vibrant, with a strong emphasis on blues and greens, juxtaposed against warmer, muted earth tones. The brushwork is loose, gestural, and confident, with visible, textured strokes adding movement and depth to the composition. The sky exhibits smooth, blended transitions, while the land and sea are defined by more spontaneous, energetic marks, reflecting the raw beauty of a windswept coastal environment.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary wood frame with an inner gilt window. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    £630

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking mid-century modernist semi-abstract figurative painting, executed in oil onto board and dated 1964.

    The composition captures a dynamic and abstracted scene of three figures engaged in daily activities. It suggests a communal or domestic setting, possibly depicting women preparing food or engaged in household chores. The artist has used geometric forms and angular lines to construct the figures, giving them an expressive presence.

    Rendered in a bold, textured technique, the painting showcases an earthy, muted palette dominated by yellows, deep blues, browns, and warm neutrals. The brushstrokes are heavily applied, creating a layered, almost sculptural surface that enhances the raw energy of the composition. The background features a loosely defined architectural or patterned element, adding depth while maintaining the abstract nature of the piece.

    Strongly influenced by Cubist and modernist traditions, this work exemplifies the mid-century aesthetic with its fusion of abstraction and figurative storytelling, making it a compelling addition to any collection of modernist art.

    The artist has used a loose, expressive technique with visible, confident brushwork, creating a sense of raw energy. The muted palette consists of beige, brown, and soft blues, harmonising the composition while highlighting the play of light and shadow across the figure. The background remains abstract, with atmospheric swathes of paint suggesting an interior space without rigid definition.

    Overall, the dynamic lines, swift and energetic brushwork, and emotive colour application contribute to an evocative portrayal of maternity and the female form.

    Mountain Monastery

    £550

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A large and captivating mid-century modernist geometric abstract painting, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The composition features three nuns dressed in black and with triangular orange faces, walking down from an abstracted mountainous landscape. Their simplified geometric forms give them a strong sense of movement, guiding the viewer’s eye toward the background, which consists of rolling green hills, a blue sky, and a large, stark white and black architectural structure on the right.

    Containing elements of geometric abstraction and cubism, the painting emphasises bold, angular forms and a structured composition. The artist has skilfully used a simplified, almost stained-glass-like approach to render the scene, with thick black outlines segmenting each shape.

    The brushwork appears smooth and controlled, lending the painting a polished and deliberate aesthetic. The combination of geometric stylisation and minimal detail creates a contemplative yet dynamic composition that is visually engaging.

    £440

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An emotive and dynamic mid-century modernist composition that captures the dramatic spectacle of a bullfight scene, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The subject matter focuses on the intense interaction between the two matadors standing confidently in vibrant red attire, and a bull charging forward with energy and strength.

    The painting exhibits an impressionistic style, emphasising mood and movement over precise details. The brushwork is loose, gestural, and impasto-rich, with visible, dynamic strokes that convey the raw energy of the bullfight. The artist has applied thick, expressive dabs of paint in the background to portray the crowd in the bustling arena, creating a sense of distance and excitement. In the foreground, the figures are defined by swift, directional strokes that capture the tension and motion of the moment.

    The colour palette is warm and earthy, dominated by shades of reds, browns, and sand. The red of the matadors’ capes contrasts strikingly with sand tones and with the darker shade of the bull, creating a focal point in the composition and emphasising the intensity of the scene.

    This oil on canvas is housed in complementary gilt frame with an inner linen border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the linen border of the frame has some marks as shown.

    Executed in an abstracted yet expressive style, the artist has used a restrained yet evocative palette dominated by cool blues, grey, and whites, punctuated by darker shades from browns from the rocks, as well as a black and orange from the boats.

     The brushstrokes are broad and gestural, adding a dynamic quality to the scene. The soft glow of the moon, reflected on the waters, adds a sense of tranquility and mystery.

    £495

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking contemporary Cornish abstract painting, executed in oil on board and dated 2024.

    Abstract in nature and titled ‘Light Hearted Conversation’, the composition is a delicate interplay of geometric and organic forms, evoking a sense of quiet dialogue between shapes and tones.

    Rendered in a soft, muted palette of pale greys, off-whites, subdued blues, and muted greens, the painting exudes a calm and introspective atmosphere. Thin black outlines define the shapes, suggesting architectural or landscape influences, while also reinforcing a subtle graphic quality.

    The brushstrokes are controlled yet expressive, with areas of smooth application juxtaposed against textured sections where the artist’s hand is more evident. Vertical and curved elements interweave harmoniously, suggesting movement and interaction—perhaps an abstracted representation of figures in conversation.

    This oil on board is housed in a simple yet elegant white frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent condition.

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An engaging and powerful abstract composition by British contemporary artist Lloyd Durling, painted in oil onto linen panel. Signed, titled and dated 2024 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.

    This oil on linen board is housed in a complementary walnut stained oak frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

    An engaging and dynamic mid-century abstract composition, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1965.

    The palette is harmonious – with the dominant colour being a deep, earthy red, complemented by pale yellows, muted beige, white, and shades of grey. Black lines and forms provide contrast, adding structure and depth to the composition.

    The brushstrokes are dynamic and varied, ranging from thick and textured to lighter and smooth strokes.

    A tranquil and atmospheric mid-century semi-abstract landscape composition, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The painting portrays a row of houses with steep roofs, nestled amidst a nature landscape with grass and foliage, and under an overcast sky or at dusk.

    The artist has used a semi-abstract style – simplifying the various forms and capturing the mood of the scene rather than focusing on realistic details.

    The brushwork is loose and expressive-  with a blend of short, sharp dashes in the foreground and houses that add a dynamic quality, and softer and gentler strokes used to paint the sky.

    The colour palette is subdued and atmospheric, dominated by shades of grey, blues, and greens, with touches of white and soft yellows.  These muted tones lend a somber mood to the scene.

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking contemporary abstract still life composition that celebrates the beauty and simplicity of everyday objects, painted in oil onto board and dated 1991 by British artist Romi Behrens (1939-2019).

    The painting captures an abstract, minimalist arrangement of two distinct objects – a white pitcher and a violin – placed on a bright yellow bench and under a blue surface. With its striking colour, the yellow bench dominates as a focal point, energising the composition and contrasting against the dark black background.

    The presence of grid lines in the background suggests a tiled wall, and it adds depth as well as enhances the geometric nature of the composition.

    Containing elements of abstraction, the artist has deliberately reduced the objects into bold, simplified shapes and flat planes of colour. The use of thin black outlines further emphasises their shapes.

    The brushstrokes are visible and lightly textured, giving the work an expressive feel. The overall intentional lack of intricate details invites the viewer to contemplate the form, colour, and symbolism of everyday objects.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary tray frame.  The painting is in very good vintage condition, and the frame has some minor age wear but is in good condition overall.

    A striking mid-century abstract composition characterised by geometric shapes and dynamic forms, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1957.

    Although abstract in nature, the painting could suggest an architectural theme, as indicated by the overlapping arches, blocks, and angular lines that may resemble bridges, rooftops, and structures. Nevertheless, the painting invites viewers to interpret its abstract qualities through the interaction of colour and form.

    The colour palette is warm and muted, dominated by shades of terracotta, salmon pink, red, and soft white, punctuated by darker accents in navy blue and deep brown. These hues create a harmonious yet vibrant contrast, evoking a sense of movement and depth.

    The brushstrokes are bold and expressive, with visible texture and layering. The artist has applied paint in a manner that feels spontaneous but deliberate, emphasising the dynamic interplay between shape and colour.

    An outstanding semi-abstract oil composition, painted in 1958 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.

    The composition presents 3 figures strolling through a town in Córdoba in Spain. Containing elements of abstraction, the artist has deliberately omitted realistic details, and has skilfully deconstructed the scene and figures down to blocks of contrasting colour.

    The use of short and expressive brushstrokes creates a sense of energy throughout the painting as well as a light textural quality. The dominant use of rich brown and cream shades in various intensities create a warm and earthy atmosphere, and the variation in contrasting tones help to create depth and three-dimensionality.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary black frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has minor scuffs but this does not detract from the overall appearance.
