    Village Across the Water

    £550

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very atmospheric mid century modernist landscape composition, painted in oil onto board and dated 1957.

    This painting features an abstracted coastal village scene, likely seen from across a body of water. The forms are geometric and simplified, with visible palette knife texture and thick impasto paint application, giving the surface a tactile quality.

    The rooftops are rendered in soft peach and pinkish tones, contrasted against cooler shades of grey, blue, and violet that suggest the sky and sea. The artist uses layered horizontal bands and angular structures to define the architecture and landscape, while the brushwork and impasto emphasize a modernist, impressionistic abstraction. The buildings are mostly blocky and flat, but their arrangement and the subtle changes in colour imply depth and perspective.

    The overall mood is tranquil and muted, evoking a foggy or overcast day in a quiet seaside village. Despite the abstraction, there’s a clear sense of structure and place, with the rooftops forming a cosy cluster amidst the misty surroundings.

    This is a serene and sophisticated landscape, abstracted to emphasize form, tone, and texture over realism, likely by an artist influenced by modernist and post-impressionist sensibilities.

    The painting is housed in a very well made and complementary frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    Interior & View

    £695

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A vibrant mid-century modernist still life oil painting that captures a calm interior moment with a strong sense of geometry and structure, by Swedish artist Eric Elfvén (1921–2008), whose works have been exhibited in public collections including the Moderna Museet in Stockholm, Jönköping Museum, Borås Art Museum, and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.

    The composition depicts a sculptural white chalice and a cluster of green apples arranged on a deep-set window ledge, overlooking a lush countryside scene.

    The composition is both minimal and expressive, with bold simplifications of form and an emphasis on flat planes of colour. The palette is rich and harmonious – cool greens and blues dominate the landscape beyond the window, while warm yellows and lime greens bring depth and contrast to the foreground. The sky is rendered in a serene powder blue, adding an atmosphere of quiet clarity.

    The brushwork is confident and textured, with visible strokes that provide a tactile quality to the foliage and surfaces. The artist has used broad, sweeping motions for the background trees, and more sculptural, deliberate application for the chalice and fruit. The overall effect is one of elegant stillness, where the boundary between inside and outside is both physical and painterly.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some scuffs and marks present.

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A charming and lively 20th century modernist composition, painted in oil onto canvas and dated 1994.

    This painting is a lively, stylised market scene. The composition is structured with clear spatial organization and bold colour blocks, using a bird’s-eye view to depict the bustling activity.

    Market stalls and vans are arranged throughout the square, painted in vivid colours like green, red, and orange. Figures of vendors and shoppers are loosely rendered with minimal detail, emphasizing movement and atmosphere over realism. At the centre is a small circular fountain, anchoring the composition. The paved plaza is painted in cool shades of blue and white, contrasting with the warm, saturated tones of produce and vehicles.

    Brushwork is loose and expressive, with a soft handling of light and shadow.

    The scene conveys a sense of sunny midday energy and community life, blending structure with spontaneity. Despite the simplified style, it captures the essence of a busy open-air market, full of colour, activity, and everyday charm.

    The composition captures a quiet moment in the countryside. Two loosely rendered figures stroll down a path, flanked by a rustic cart and surrounded by cottages within a landscape setting.

    Painted in an expressive style, the composition is constructed with broad, confident brushstrokes and an emphasis on blocks of colour rather than intricate detail. The palette is soft yet vibrant, blending pastel pinks, greens, blues, and browns.

    The simplified forms give the painting a nostalgic, almost storybook quality – evoking the rhythm of slow village life under a pale, serene sky.

    £580

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking and richly textured mid-century abstract composition, executed in oil onto canvas.
    Although abstract in nature, the painting captures a densely clustered mass of vertical forms that suggest a gathering of figures in motion.
    The artist has used thick impasto and gestural, almost sculptural brushstrokes to create a palpable sense of depth and emotional intensity. Faces and bodies seem to emerge from the paint, rendered with a raw immediacy that is both haunting and poetic.

    The palette is earthy and muted – browns, greys and beige – with punctuations of orange, evoking both the solemnity and vitality of the human condition. The work feels deeply emotive, bordering on the surreal, and invites contemplation on themes of community, anonymity, and collective memory.

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A small and very impactful mid-century figurative painting that captures a serene moment by the sea, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1976.

    The composition features two figures set against a vast, tranquil backdrop of sky and ocean. The central figure, dressed in a flowing white garment, carries a patterned bag, exuding a sense of calm and contemplation. A smaller figure, rendered in lighter hues, walks nearby, emphasising a sense of companionship or familial connection.

    The painting’s style is distinctly modernist, characterised by minimalistic forms and a textured, almost naïve approach to rendering figures. The use of a muted, pastel colour palette – predominantly soft blues, whites, and sandy beiges – enhances the ethereal quality of the piece.

    The brushstrokes are loose and expressive, with visible texture and layering, imparting a sense of movement to the otherwise quiet scene.

    This oil on canvas is creatively housed in a white painted rustic wood frame. The painting is in good vintage condition. There  is some age wear to backing frame panel but this is in keeping with its style.

    Rural Abstraction

    £525

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A large and captivating mid-century landscape painting that presents a dynamic interplay between abstraction and representation, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The painting presents a rural landscape dominated by an angular, white structure – likely a house or barn – set against rugged terrain. The composition balances organic and geometric forms, emphasising the contrast between man-made and natural elements.

    The piece embodies elements of abstract expressionism, blending gestural and textured brushstrokes with semi-representational forms. The fragmented, layered approach to the structure hints at collage techniques, while the landscape itself is rendered through broad, sweeping gestures.

    Earthy tones dominate the palette, with yellows, browns, and deep greens forming the background and landscape. The structure itself is highlighted with whites and light greys, accented by touches of muted blue.

    The artist has used expressive, textured brushwork, layering thick and thin applications of paint. Loose, bold strokes define the landscape, while the structure features more deliberate, angular marks, emphasising the contrast between organic scenery and constructed form. The brushstrokes convey a sense of movement and depth, giving the impression of a weathered, windswept setting.

    This large oil on canvas is housed in a complementary gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. There are some minor scuffs to bottom left frame corner, but it is in good condition otherwise.

    £535

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    This serene and atmospheric mid-century landscape painting that captures the quiet stillness of a snow-covered shoreline, executed in oil onto board.

    A gentle path winds through the foreground, flanked by patches of exposed earth and subtle hints of foliage. Sparse trees – both evergreen and bare-branched – rise gracefully across the scene, while a frozen lake and distant forested hills fade softly into a muted grey sky.

    Rendered in an almost abstract style, the composition emphasises simplicity and mood over realistic detail. The artist has used a muted palette dominated by subdued greys, whites, pale yellows, and earthy browns, with soft green and red accents adding quiet contrast.

    Brushstrokes are short, expressive, and lightly textured – applied in a loose, painterly manner that creates a gentle rhythm throughout the piece. This approach conveys both the crispness and the quietude of a winter day.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary white frame with yellow tints. The painting has some very small surface marks to the left side as shown in the close ups, but it is in very good condition overall. The frame has some slight age wear but is also in good condition overall.

    A very well executed mid century modernist figurative composition of a sailor, painted in oil onto card.

    This painting features a stylized, abstracted figure of a sailor seated on a chair. The sailor is depicted using bold, geometric shapes and flat areas of colour, reminiscent of the Cubist and Modernist styles.

    The figure sits in a relaxed, slightly angular posture, with crossed legs and arms folded, giving a composed yet confident air. The colour palette is dominated by navy blues, blacks, greys, and reds, contrasting with the earthy brown background. White and grey tones highlight the sailor’s trousers and accessories.

    Apple & Dancing Forms

    £650

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A brilliantly executed abstract composition drawn in biro onto paper, by British artist Enos Lovatt (1937-2018).

    This intricate composition has a dynamic, surreal quality, filled with abstract forms and stylised figures. The cross-hatching and dense linework typical of biro drawings are skilfully used to create depth, contrast, and texture. The artist plays with positive and negative space, using white areas effectively to highlight the main forms amidst the dark, densely filled background.

    The drawing has strong influences from Surrealism and Abstract Expressionism, with its dream-like imagery and focus on fluidity, symbolism, and subconscious forms. There’s a sense of narrative, though it remains open-ended and abstract, encouraging personal interpretation.

    Overall, the piece is bold, intricate, and highly textured, showcasing the meticulous potential of the humble biro pen in the hands of a skilled artist.

    Both the drawing and frame are in excellent vintage condition. The painting is presented within a card mount and a stained black wooden frame, and is protected behind perspex. 

    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.

    In the early 1990s, Enos lost most of the three middle fingers on his dominant right hand in a lawnmower accident. The biros allowed him to navigate his vivid and unique imagination and bring the thoughts and images in his head to life in their purest form of magic realism. This drawing was created in the early 2000s.

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

    This expressive gouache painting features a collection of abstract, stylized human figures, arranged vertically against a bold turquoise background. The figures are outlined with heavy black lines, giving them a graphic, almost childlike quality. Each character has a distinct presence but is rendered with simplified forms and exaggerated facial features.

    The gouache medium allows for bold, opaque colour application, giving the painting a vibrant, matte finish. Visible brushstrokes and unrefined edges enhance the raw, expressive energy.

    Overall, this piece feels dynamic and full of personality, with a playful yet intense aesthetic that invites viewers to interpret the relationships and emotions of the figures.

    The painting is presented within 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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    £1,050

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A brilliantly executed and characterful surrealist still life composition, executed in tempera on board in 1965 by the established Swedish artist Eric Cederberg (1897-1984), whose artworks have been represented in several public and museum collections across Sweden.

    Small yet impactful in its composition, the painting presents a carefully arranged tabletop composition featuring a glass vase adorned with delicate white floral patterns, a collection of green pears—some resting on a blue dish and others scattered on the wooden surface—and a gracefully curved branch with a golden autumn leaf. The background includes an arched doorway leading to a softly lit room, with a checkered floor adding a geometric contrast to the organic shapes of the fruit and vase.

    Inviting viewers to revel in the simple beauty of everyday objects, the artist masterfully captures the essence of surrealism and realism through his meticulous brushwork and keen attention to detail, as well as by simplifying the objects into bold, flat shapes.

    The colour palette is rich, and the artist has skilfully used subtle gradations of tone to suggest volume, particularly in the glass vase and pears.

    The brushstrokes are precise, smooth and clean – emphasising the flatness of the shapes and contributing to the tempera medium’s characteristic of flatness and opacity. This technique lends the painting a polished, clean aesthetic.

     

    This tempera on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame with an inner linen border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has water marks and wear across its inner border, and has some light scuffing present as well.

    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.

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.

  • Bullfight in Motion

    Bullfight in Motion

    £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.

    Rendered in a bold expressionist style, the painting employs a dynamic palette of icy blues, deep navy, earthy browns, and soft pastels.

  • Light Hearted Conversation

    Light Hearted Conversation

    £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.

  • Rising Grey Green

    Rising Grey Green

    £650

    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.

    Size: 50 x 40 cm (including frame)

  • Fruits on White Cloth

    Fruits on White Cloth

    £760

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A brilliantly executed still life painting in tempera painted onto board in 1979, by the established Swedish artist Eric Cederberg (1897-1984), whose artworks have been represented in several public and museum collections across Sweden.

    The composition features a selection of fruit neatly arranged on a folded white cloth against a brown background. The simplicity of the subject matter allows the viewer to focus on the interplay of colours, shapes, and light within the artwork.

    The style is realistic yet painterly, and the depiction of shadows beneath the fruit and folds in the cloth adds depth to the image, enhancing its three-dimensionality.

    The palette is rich yet restrained. Warm tones dominate, with the reds, oranges, and yellows of the fruit providing vibrant focal points. The white of the cloth contrasts beautifully with the earthy tones of the brown background, creating balance and harmony in the composition.

    The brushstrokes are smooth and meticulous, contributing to the tempera medium’s characteristic flatness and opacity. This technique lends the painting a polished, clean aesthetic.

    This tempera on board is housed in a well-suited gilt frame and with an inner linen border. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.
