    SOLD.

    A charming and homely modernist composition, painted in oil on canvas.

    The composition presents an interior setting where a blue table with a vase of flowers takes center stage, first capturing our attention.

As our eyes move towards the background, we get a glimpse of a scenic view through a window, where rolling green fields with grazing cows and some houses are in the distance.

  • Under the Sun

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A brilliant 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 standing figures, with the sun shining above them. On the left, we see a close-up of a female figure with a straight-faced expression. She is adorned in a patterned dress, and her face is partially cast with a shadow. On the right, two slender and elongated male figures are depicted walking toward the direction of the female in the foreground.

    The artist’s brushstrokes are gentle, soft, and precise, reflecting a careful attention to detail. The overall muted and earthy colours create a subdued and warmth atmosphere. The lady’s small and striking red lips and the large, flat, curved shapes in the composition are typical of the artist Lundqvist’s style.

    This oil on canvas come unframed, and is in very good vintage condition.

  • Village Market

    Sold

    SOLD.

    An outstanding mid century modernist composition in oil, painted onto board.

    The composition presents a bustling village scene where a group of female figures in the foreground are surrounding some tents, presumably shopping for fresh produce. In the background, we can see a facade of buildings in the village.

    The artist has reduced the scene down to its formal qualities, focusing on shape, line, pattern and colour. A very rich and wide spectrum of colours have been used, and the contrasting shades that have been layered upon one another harmonise wonderfully together. The silhouettes of the figures and village scape have been outlined in varying shades of blue – highlighting the three-dimensional qualities of their form whilst adding interest to the painting. Expressive and energetic brushstrokes have been thoughtfully applied and dabbed across the surface, leaving a beautiful textural quality.

    It almost appears that artist has painted this brilliant composition with a fisheye perspective as the scene is displayed with a wider viewing angle and slight curvature.

    This oil on board is housed in a wooden frame with a linen border and silver detail. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • White City

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A calm and restful mid-century cityscape, 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 composition portrays rows of white buildings of differing heights, stretching out into the distance. In the right side of the foreground, we can discern a tall and slender silhouette of figure portrayed with minimal detail, standing against the town. The artist has purposely simplified the architectural details of the town, reducing it to simplified blocks of white shades with varying intensities.

    The colour palette of the painting is limited to muted shades of white, grey. These gentle colours create a subdued atmosphere, evoking a sense of tranquility. The brushstrokes in the painting are gentle and smooth, creating a sense of calmness throughout the artwork.

    The painting’s minimalistic feel makes it an easy piece to fit into a wide variety of interior settings.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a ridged frame with multiple profiles, that pairs beautifully with the painting. Both the painting and frame have some marks as shown in the close ups, but they are in good vintage condition overall.

  • Houses

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A striking and brilliantly executed geometric abstract composition, executed in oil onto canvas in 1958.

    Rows of houses of different colours and sizes are neatly presented and aligned. Painted with a distinctly modernist ethos, the artist has reconstructed this scene down using flat blocks of contrasting colours to create a sense of space and depth, beautifully composing an almost puzzle-like composition with different sized geometric shapes fitting together.

    Working with a restrained palette with a mix of light white tones contrasting against darker shades of red, purple and blue and arranged structurally, the painting is very well balanced and has a harmonious feel.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary slim wood frame. The painting has some very light craquelure to its lower half (as shown in close ups), but the paint layer is very stable overall. The frame has some minor scuffing, commensurate with age.

  • Introspection

    Sold

    SOLD.

    An emotive mid-century figurative portrait, executed in oil onto board.

    A figure, positioned at the center of the composition, is depicted in a sitting pose with a slight slouch, conveying a sense of introspection or contemplation.

    Using spontaneous and uninhibited brushstrokes, the artist has skilfully layered colours to reveal depth and interest. The use of a muted palette as well as darker shades of brown and black intensifies the somber mood of the piece.

    The painting is housed in a wide-profiled wood frame with a distressed finish, which adds an additional layer of depth and character to the piece.

    This oil on board is in very good vintage condition. The frame has some losses to the inner corners as shown in close-ups, with some light scuffing to its outer edges.

Set within the landscape are two orange roofed country houses that create focal points for our eyes as viewers.

    This expressive landscape has the ability to transport us to a place of tranquillity and rest.

    The oil on canvas is housed in a complementary gilt frame with an inner linen border. The painting has some light marks but is in good vintage condition overall. There is light age toning  present to the linen border of the frame.

  • Luminous Pears

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A brilliantly executed and characterful mid-century still life in oil, painted by the established Swedish artist Eric Cederberg (1897-1984), whose artworks have been represented in several public and museum collections across Sweden.

    In this excellent composition, three pears are laid out on a white bowl. Working with a rich and saturated colour palette, the objects appear illuminated. They are set against a backdrop of darker shades including  blue, red, black, and green that intermingle, creating a visually striking contrast that makes the bowl of pears stand out more.

    The artist’s masterful use of the impasto technique adds another layer of depth and texture to the painting. Thick, expressive brushstrokes and layers of paint create a tactile quality, and the impasto technique not only enriches the visual experience but also imparts a sense of dynamism and vitality to the composition.

    This oil on board is housed in its original mid century silver frame with an inner linen lining. The painting and frame are in good vintage condition.

  • Prep

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A small but very interesting composition of two figures in an interior, painted in oil onto board.

    We have not been able to quite put a finger on what the two figures are doing – they look like they could be drying out something, given the firewood in the picture, or perhaps they are weaving with a loom in front of the seated figure. A large bag of logs sits to the right of the picture, a pair of barrels can be seen to the left, and wooden beams run across the roof. The picture has a lovely homely feel, with an earthy palette of browns and greens. There is an array of detail, which makes it very interesting puzzle to try and work out. If anyone has a clear idea of what the scene is of, we’d be very grateful if you could drop us a message letting us know what you think it is and why!

    The painting is housed in a gilt frame which illuminates the picture wonderfully. Both painting and frame are in good vintage condition.

  • Set of 4 Oils

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A small but powerful set of abstract compositions by British 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.

    Lloyd Durling is a British artist working in London. His practice is painting-based and he has exhibited widely throughout Europe, U.S.A and Asia. In 2017 he was awarded a Pollock-Krasner Foundation grant. Works are held in both public and private collections worldwide.

  • Tabletop Setting

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A lively and expressive mid-century still life composition, executed in watercolour and gouache onto paper.

    The painting depicts an interior setting featuring an array of objects including some pitches, bottles, and a white tablecloth spread out across a slanting table.

    The artist displays his mastery in the medium of watercolour, skilfully building up layers of contrasting colours to add depth and complexity to the work, as well as to create subtle shifts in colour and tonal value. Brushstrokes are evident in this work, adding an expressive quality and visual interest to the painting.

    This watercolour and gouache on paper is housed in a slim cream wood frame with a mount card, and is glazed (there is a layer of glass between the frame and the painting to ensure its longevity).

  • The Bakery

    Sold

    SOLD.

    Free UK Shipping Only.

    A large and very well executed mid century modernist composition of a kitchen interior scene, painted in oil onto board.

    In this setting of a bakery, 3 bakers are positioned at their respective stations – with one kneading dough by the table, one by the wood fired oven, and another depicted gathering some ingredients in the foreground of the painting.

    The artist has thoughtfully layered contrasting shades, leaving a unique orange undertone visible, as well as hints orange outlines to highlight the silhouettes of the respective forms.

    The artwork has been executed in such an invigorating and confident manner – with urgent, bold and expressive brushstrokes sweeping across the canvas, wonderfully capturing the bustling atmosphere in the kitchen.

  • The Embrace

    Sold

    SOLD.

    Free UK Shipping Only. 

    A large, beautiful and subtle abstract figurative composition, executed in oil onto canvas.

    Abstract in nature, the forms in the composition are not clearly defined but our interpretation discerns a standing male figure embracing a female figure.

    The artist has worked with a subdued and muted colour palette that instils a soothing quality to the painting. There is a beautiful transition from darker shades of blue and grey to lighter shades of cream and grey. Distinct energetic brushstrokes fill the canvas, adding an expressive effect and a wonderful textural quality to the painting.

  • Three Gentlemen

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A lively and expressive figurative painting, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1990.

    The composition is centered around three gentlemen seated at a table. Two of them have their gazes faced at the viewer, and we get a glimpse of the side profile of the gentleman on the left.

    The artist has taken a bold approach to its representational style, using a rich and lively colour palette as well as swift and dynamic brushstrokes to demonstrate depth as well as to enliven the scene.

    Furthermore, the artist has also skilfully used white negative space to his advantage – as the use of gestural brushstrokes and lively colours against the white negative space of the canvas gives the painting a sense of space and also draws our attention to the expressive quality of the paint.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary dark grey frame with an inner gilt window. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some light wear, but the appearance is still very good.

  • Through the Trees

    Sold

    SOLD.

    Free UK Shipping.

    A very large and textured semi abstract mid century landscape composition, painted in oil onto canvas.

    This modernist landscape features several areas of heavy impasto where the paint has been applied very generously, giving this painting a wonderful depth with several layers. Though the palette is fairly minimal, the artist has managed to capture the essence of this wintery wooded landscape, giving the impression of a very far reaching landscape. There is almost a mirror like effect, where the colours used for the sky are repeated on the trees and the ground, creating a very harmonious composition. The slim white birch trees stand vertically upright across the scene, juxtaposing the largely horizontal brushwork that has been used.

    The painting is house in a linen lined frame with an inner silver border, which suits the painting impeccably. The canvas has a small closed tear to the upper edge, as seen in photos. This has been restored from the reverse and as such is not obvious on the front. There is slight age toning to the top left corner of the frame.

  • Village in Pastel

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A brilliantly executed mid century composition of a village, painted in oil and dated 1951.

    This inviting picture features soft, warm colours painted in a non naturalistic manner. Working under a modernist ethos, the artist has used a rural village scene as his source of inspiration, using the shapes and forms of the houses to create a sense of space and depth. His soft brushstrokes are evident, giving this painting its tactile quality.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a lovely wood frame with an inner gilt border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some very minor scuffs which do not detract from the overall attractiveness of the piece.

  • White Horses

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A striking and expressive mid-century landscape of 2 horses in nature, executed in oil onto canvas.

    In the foreground of the painting, our attention is immediately drawn to the 2 horses, as their white colours contrast starkly against the green meadow.

    As we move our gaze upwards, the painting subtlety reveals a dramatic sky that dominates the middle and background of the painting. The sky is painted in an outstanding shade of blue, and upon closer inspection, we can notice black undertones, that create a sense of intensity. There is also a spot of yellow which we can infer to be the setting sun, as well as an area of black, which we can infer to be the dark clouds emerging.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary slim gilt frame. There are scattered areas of craquelure, mainly to the centre of the painting, as shown, but paint layer is overall stable. There are also small areas of paint loss to the upper left corner of the painting, as shown. The frame is in very good vintage condition.

  • Wintertide

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A richly coloured modernist winter cityscape composition, painted in oil onto canvas and dated 1965.

    The painting presents a winter scene where rows of buildings in different sizes and colours and with snow-covered rooftops are neatly presented across snow-covered grounds and barren trees.

    The earthy reds, mustard yellow and deep blues contrast wonderfully against the colder tones of the white snow, and captures the quiet, melancholic atmosphere of this industrial city in winter. The artist has also used expressive brushstrokes with areas of thickly applied paint, creating a textured and painterly composition.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary silver frame that illuminates it wonderfully. There is some light craquelure to the top section of the painting, as seen in close ups, but the paint layer is stable overall and the painting is in good condition. There is some scuffing the frame edges.

  • Abstract Collage

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A unique and intriguing abstract figurative composition dated 1976, that employs a combination of oil and collage techniques.

    Executed in an abstract manner, the artwork portrays a figure with his hands raised by his face, and is brimming with expressive energy.  Rich colours of red, blue, and yellow have been executed with broad and bold brushstrokes, conveying a sense of emotional depth.

    In addition to the application of oil, the artist has incorporated collage elements into the composition. Stripes of paper, carefully selected and arranged, intersect and intertwine with the painted surface. These collaged elements create a sense of depth as well as a textural quality, further enhancing the visual impact of the artwork.

    This mixed media on card is housed in a bright gold frame with gold inner border. There is a small loss to the lower right corner of the frame, but overall the appearance is very good. The painting is in excellent vintage condition.

  • Abstract in Blue

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A small yet very impactful mixed media composition with abstract qualities.

    Painted in a semi-abstract manner and with a strong focus on colour and brushwork, we can perhaps make out what appears to be three figures crossing a bridge over a body of water.

    Although the artist has worked with a restrained colour palette, the intense use of blue that takes up the centre of the painting is the most prominent colour that commands our attention.

    Long sweeping brushstrokes have been rhythmically executed, and overall the painting is very well balanced and evokes a very satisfying sense of calm.

    This is a mixed media on board, consisting pastel, gouache, watercolour and oil. Both the painting and frame are both in very good vintage condition. The painting is housed behind glass.

    A small but powerful abstract composition by British artist Lloyd Durling, painted in oil 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.

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: 20 x 15 cm (including frame)
