Tidal Rhythm

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A serene and expressive mid-century coastal landscape painting, executed in oil onto board.

This composition captures a sunlit shoreline, where land, sea, and sky converge in rhythmic harmony. Rolling waves meet sandy inlets and grassy banks, leading the viewer’s eye toward a distant tree-lined horizon under a softly clouded sky.

Executed in bold, confident brushstrokes, the work embraces an expressive, almost abstracted interpretation of nature. The artist has used impasto techniques with energetic brush movements that create a palpable texture across the canvas. Rich greens, browns, and sandy beiges define the coastal terrain, while varying shades of blue and lavender bring dynamism to the sea. Accents of crimson and cobalt heighten the visual tempo, offering flickers of contrast within the organic flow.

Evocative of Nordic coastal scenes and post-impressionist influence, this painting exemplifies the mid-century modern ethos: emotional immediacy through painterly gesture, simplified forms, and a harmonious interplay of colour.

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

Whispers in the Wind
£410
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A calm and serene mid-century modernist style landscape, executed in oil onto board.

The composition captures a tranquil scene anchored by two windswept trees standing sentinel beside a rustic wooden gate. The simplified composition reflects a distinctly modernist sensibility, stripping the scene down to its essential forms and rhythm.

Rendered in a restrained yet expressive palette of dusky greens, blues and yellow, the painting suggests the stillness of early morning or the hush before a summer storm. The sky looms with weight, textured in wide, flat planes of grey-blue, lending atmosphere and depth to the horizon.

Broad, gestural brushstrokes give the foliage of the trees a tactile quality. The rough, visible texture of the oil paint adds a sense of movement and immediacy. Subtle tonal contrasts in the fields beyond evoke a patchwork of earth and pasture, conveying both the simplicity and vitality of the rural environment.

This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame with an inner linen border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and there is some paint loss present at the bottom of the gilded frame.

Abstract Plants
£320
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A small and visually impactful semi-abstract composition in oil, painted by British artist Lloyd Durling,

The surface is thick with textured impasto, giving the work a tactile, almost sculptural presence. The composition is divided into vivid colour blocks—warm corals, sunny yellows, soft aquas, and hints of mint—intersected by expressive black and blue marks that suggest organic forms.

Lloyd’s use of thick paint application invites a physical response—you can almost feel the surface just by looking at it. This rich texture adds depth and dynamism, engaging the senses beyond the visual.

The loosely defined forms gives us viewers just enough to begin imagining plants and stems without being literal. Its small size encourages close, personal viewing. It feels like a private experience—something to be studied and absorbed in a quiet moment. A perfect example of how small artworks can carry a big impact.

This impasto painting is mounted a dark stained oak frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

Lloyd is based in London and his practice is painting-based. His first international solo show was in 2010 at Golden in Chicago and he has exhibited widely throughout Europe, Asia and the US. In 2017 he was awarded a Pollock-Krasner Foundation grant. Lloyd’s works are held in public and private collections worldwide, including the Whitworth Art Gallery and Museum, Progressive collection, America and Nomura Bank, Japan.

Apple Reflection
£405
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A refined mid-century still life that captures a crisp moment of domestic simplicity with photorealistic precision, executed in oil onto canvas.

At the centre, a knife rests diagonally on a highly polished surface, its reflection rendered with meticulous attention. Flanking it are three apple segments – one halved, one whole, and one freshly cut – each painted with soft transitions of red, yellow, and green, evoking ripeness and freshness.

The artist employs a naturalistic style with subtle tonal gradations and a restrained palette. The composition is grounded in realism, but the clean backdrop and stark contrast between object and reflection give the work a modernist sharpness. The brushwork is smooth and controlled, with a finish so refined it nearly conceals the hand of the painter – typical of mid-century realism.

This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary wood frame . The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some paint peeling off on its inner section as shown in the photos.

Harvest Under the Canopy
£515
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A rich and striking striking mid-century modernist figurative landscape composition, painted in oil and gouache by the established Swedish female artist Brita Hansson (1918-1979).

A group of figures is gathered beneath a grove of robust, twisting trees – likely harvesters at rest or mid-task, surrounded by produce and market crates. The scene hums with life, captured in abstracted yet recognisable forms. Deep blues, earthy reds, browns, and forest greens dominate the palette, contrasted with striking patches of orange and golden yellow that suggest dappled sunlight filtering through foliage.

Painted in a bold, modernist style, the figures and environment are rendered with broad, expressive brushstrokes and geometric abstraction. The trees form powerful vertical rhythms while the figures, draped in rich fabrics, add weight and grounded intimacy to the scene. The brushwork is confident and gestural, emphasising mass and movement rather than realistic detail – imbuing the painting with a sense of warmth.

This oil and gouache on paper has been mounted onto board, and is housed in a complementary wood frame with an inner gilt window. There is a tiny bit of craquelure present in the middle tree but the paint layer is stable, and the painting is in good vintage condition overall.

Seated in Stillness
£445
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

An evocative modernist abstract painting that captures a contemplative figure rendered in bold, gestural strokes, painted in mixed media and dated 1973.

The subject is positioned frontally, seated against a patchwork of abstracted colour fields that imply an interior setting. A vivid orange dominates the figure’s body, outlined with raw yellow and offset by angular shadows in brown, crimson, and white. A striking cobalt blue cloth or object at the figure’s feet anchors the composition with a surprising burst of contrast.

Executed in a distinctly modernist style, the work fuses figurative expression with abstraction. The brushwork is confident and layered, with rough, visible strokes and a painterly energy that emphasises emotional form over anatomical precision. The background moves from a cool, washed green to blocks of saturated red and earthy brown, creating tension and spatial ambiguity.

Overall, the painting presents a powerful study in isolation, colour, and raw human presence.

This mixed media on card is presented within a white mount and a gilt frame, and is glazed (there is a layer of glass between the frame and the painting to ensure its longevity). The painting has some craquelure present, but its overall condition is stable as it is framed behind glass.

Stillness in Blue Light
£430
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A striking and uniquely textured mid-century interior still life that captures a moment of quiet elegance within an abstracted domestic setting, executed in oil and ink onto board.

At the heart of the composition is a white table rendered with gestural precision, holding a dark bowl of yellow fruit and a tall blue vase with two red flowers. The background unfolds in a layered wash of shadowy arches, pale teal walls, and textured architectural forms—suggesting a moody, introspective room awash with diffused natural light.

The artist has used a distinctive impasto technique, building up the surface with thick, expressive brushstrokes that carve out depth and texture, particularly in the arched doorway and floor reflections. A palette of deep ultramarines, smoky greys, siennas, and muted aquas sets an evocative, almost theatrical atmosphere. Linear incisions and palette knife work add to the painting’s sculptural quality, giving a sense of movement and tactile richness.

A quietly compelling composition that balances structure with emotion, light with shadow.

This oil and ink on canvas is housed in a complementary hessian lined frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some minor scuffing.

The Space Between
£640
Available

Free UK Shipping Only.

A 21st-century minimalist abstract painting that explores the interplay between negative space and geometric form with meditative clarity, executed in oil on canvas.

Dominated by a large, white shape that stretches vertically across the canvas, the composition is framed by two symmetrical bands of muted green on either side. These green sections are not sharply delineated but instead curve inward with organic fluidity, forming the edges of the central void.

Executed in a minimalist style, the work bears no visible brushstrokes, suggesting the use of masking techniques or flat application of paint to achieve a crisp, graphic finish. The simplicity of the colour palette – clean white and a subdued forest green – lends a serene, contemplative tone, inviting the viewer to reflect on the tension between form and emptiness, presence and absence. A subtle nod to mid-century minimalism, this piece balances structure and softness with elegant restraint.

This work appeals emotionally through its stillness and subtle rhythm, and intellectually through its form-driven abstraction—a reminder that art doesn’t need to explain itself to be deeply affecting.

This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary light wood tray frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

Size: 83 x 83 cm (including frame)

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

The painting captures a bold composition of four red apples nestled in a pale ceramic bowl, as it channels a sense of rustic intimacy through its simplified forms and earthy palette. Set against a loosely-rendered, wood-textured tabletop with blues and greens framing the background, the work evokes both structure and spontaneity.

Executed in a heavily impastoed style, the artist builds texture through deliberate, sculptural brushstrokes. The surface is rich with ridges of oil paint, applied thickly and expressively, lending dimensionality and movement to the otherwise still composition. Deep reds, moss greens, ochres, and navy blues dominate the palette, unified by the creamy whites of the bowl and accented by the textured backdrop.

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A mid-century figurative painting that captures a lively outdoor gathering beneath two abstracted pine trees, rendered in bold, expressive forms, and painted in oil onto board by the established Swedish female artist Brita Hansson (1918-1979).

At the center of the composition, a group of stylised figures sits together on what appears to be a picnic blanket, sharing a meal or conversation. Their forms are simplified yet evocative, outlined with fluid, gestural lines that emphasise connection and warmth.

Executed in a semi-abstract style, the painting merges figuration with vivid blocks of colour and dynamic compositional geometry. The palette features warm orange, deep forest greens, and rich reds, offset by cool blues and white negative space that lends the work a breezy openness. The brushwork is broad and textured, revealing the artist’s confident hand and intuitive layering of paint.

Fruit & Brushes
£445
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A painterly and expressive mid-century still life composition, executed in oil onto board.

This expressive composition offers a window into the artist’s studio through a rhythmic arrangement of objects – a terracotta vase, a lilac-toned pitcher, a cobalt dish of orange fruit, and a pair of blue tumblers holding delicate paintbrushes.

What sets this piece apart is the dynamic interplay of brushstroke and line. Thick, impasto layers are energetically applied, while the artist employs sgraffito – scratching into the wet paint with the back of a brush to reveal underlying tones and carve gestural lines into the surface. This technique adds both texture and movement, amplifying the painting’s sense of immediacy and spontaneity.

The palette is a sophisticated interplay of soft mauves, deep greens, and muted blues, set against a textured backdrop that shifts from diagonal to vertical strokes – echoing the tension between structure and freedom.

Interior with Green Stove
£440
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A serene mid-century interior scene that captures a quiet moment in a Scandinavian home, painted in oil onto canvas and dated 1944.

The composition is anchored by a pale green tiled masonry stove – a traditional element of Nordic domestic architecture. A blue pitcher perched atop the stove adds a pop of contrast, while a single wooden chair with a blue upholstered seat invites the viewer into the space.

The composition leads the eye across a striped woven rug into an adjacent sunlit room, creating a gentle sense of depth and domestic continuity. Executed in a naturalistic yet subtly stylised manner, the painting reflects the mid-20th-century Scandinavian aesthetic of simplicity, functionality, and calm.

The palette is soft and harmonious, dominated by muted greens, warm browns, powdery blues, and hints of red in the rug. Brushstrokes are smooth and controlled, lending a quiet clarity to the scene, while the treatment of light – softly diffused through the unseen window – imbues the work with a tranquil, timeless atmosphere.

This piece is both a nostalgic record of interior life and a meditative study of colour, form, and balance.

Sunset by the Pines
£455
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A captivating modernist landscape that captures a serene winter evening in a town, painted with a whimsical yet sophisticated hand., executed in oil onto canvas and dated 2004.

The composition is anchored by slender, trees stretching vertically across the canvas, their trunks etched in expressive, confident brushstrokes. Beyond the trees, a snow-covered red cottage stands bathed in the glow of a pink and amber sunset, with a fiery sun gently sinking into the horizon.

The artist has used a vivid yet harmonious palette- rosy pinks, icy blues, yellows, and earthy browns. Snow is rendered in light texture, while delicate dabs of white and gold depict the last leaves of autumn clinging to frosted branches. A few scattered birds and a ladder leaning against the cottage hint at daily life amidst stillness.

A striking mid-century modernist landscape rendered in a semi-abstract style, that captures the sculptural quality of the natural terrain through bold, expressive brushwork and a refined palette, executed in oil onto board.

Moonrise with Yellow Cup
£985
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A quiet and introspective mid-century modernist figurative painting, 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.

A solitary figure stands silhouetted against a dusky ochre sky, bathed in the stillness of twilight. A full, pale moon hangs suspended in the background, casting a quiet presence over a geometric urban landscape rendered in rich, earthen browns and shadowy forms.

The central figure, wears a softly patterned yellow garment that glows against the muted backdrop. Her jet-black hair is stark and angular, echoing the blocky architecture behind her. A small yellow cup, almost symbolic, rests at the bottom edge – a tender detail that anchors the composition with quiet intimacy.

Executed in a restrained palette of warm browns, creams, ochres, and charcoal, the painting features smooth, matte brushwork and soft, flat colour fields, characteristic of post-war European modernism. The artist’s style is contemplative and distilled, evoking introspection and a serene, poetic stillness.

This oil on canvas is housed in a very well-suited silver frame with an inner linen border. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

Market Day in the Square
£450
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A charming mid-century Naïve style street scene that captures the rhythm and warmth of a local European town square on market day, executed in oil onto board and dated 1957.

The composition presents a bustling yet orderly gathering of figures amid open stalls and sunlit awnings, set against the backdrop of a grand building with a steep red roof and tall chimney that anchors the composition.

Executed in a naïve, folk-modernist style, the figures are rendered with simplified forms and minimal detail. The artist has used flat, blocky colour planes with earthy ochres, deep forest greens, navy blues, and brick reds, punctuated by soft greys and muted yellows in the cobbled square and overcast sky.

Brushstrokes are direct and purposeful, with little blending. A defining feature of this work is the use of deep blue outlines – used not only to demarcate figures, umbrellas, and building edges, but also to bring coherence and rhythm to the composition. These cobalt contours give the scene an illustrative quality, emphasising form over detail.

Overall, this work balances architectural geometry with the spontaneity of human life and community.

This oil on board is housed in a complementary wood frame with an inner linen border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has minor scuffs.

Size: 50.5 x 58.5 cm (including frame)

Pastoral Geometry
£530

A serene mid-century modernist landscape that captures a cluster of farmhouses nestled within a stylised patchwork of verdant fields, executed in oil onto canvas.

The composition evokes the stillness of the countryside, with a rhythmic interplay between architectural form and geometric land divisions. Rendered in a cool, muted palette of sage, grey and hints of dark brown, the scene exudes a meditative calm.

The artist’s brushwork is confident yet restrained – large flat planes and subtle tonal shifts create a softly abstracted effect, lending the landscape an almost dreamlike quality. The sky is rendered in pale washes, while the layered fields below suggest distance and depth through carefully constructed blocks of colour.

This oil on canvas is housed in a stunning frame with multiple profiles. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has very some scuffing, but this is in keeping with its vintage style.

The Net Menders
£440
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

An evocative mid-century modernist landscape composition with figures, executed in oil onto canvas.

The painting captures a quiet scene where two figures are engaged in the timeless ritual of mending nets. Rendered in broad, confident brushstrokes, the composition emphasises form and rhythm over detail, evoking a sense of labor and community grounded in place.

The artist employs a muted yet expressive palette: yellows and orange dominate the foreground, while greys, greens and blues define the sky and background. A bold block of red – a hut—anchors the composition to the right, adding architectural structure to the looser figurative forms. The figures themselves are stylised, almost abstract, with simplified forms, allowing posture and gesture to tell the story.

Expressive and directional brushwork lend energy to the piece, particularly in the sweeping green lines of the fishing net, which leads the viewer’s eye diagonally across the scene. The cool and vast expanse of sky, provides balance and contrast to the dense activity in the lower half of the painting.

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

Woman in Repose
£540
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A small yet very impactful mid century abstract figurative oil composition, 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 painting captures the delicate stillness of a seated female figure through a haze of muted earth tones and gestural brushwork. The composition is softened by a palette of dark green, cream, dusty rose, black, and pale blue, evoking a dreamlike ambiance.

The figure, loosely rendered, appears to be draped in a light dress, reclining against an abstracted backdrop that hints at foliage or stone. The artist has used confident, impressionistic strokes to blur the boundaries between subject and setting, allowing light and shadow to dissolve form. The painter’s technique embraces abstraction, with layered brushwork and softened edges creating an evocative play between motion and stillness.

This oil on board is housed in a complementary wide profile gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. There are some very minor scuffs to the frame, but it is in very good condition overall.

The Shaded Cottage

The painting captures a tranquil rural scene rendered with bold simplification and abstracted form. The skilful interplay of light and shadow suggests a late afternoon sun. Thatched-roof cottages are nestled along a gently curving path, partially obscured by the angular branches of leafless trees. The geometric structure of the roofs contrasts beautifully with the organic rhythm of the trunks and overhanging limbs.

Executed in a restrained but earthy palette, the artist creates depth and harmony without unnecessary detail. The brushstrokes are broad and gestural, giving the composition a sense of immediacy and movement, while maintaining a strong architectural rhythm.

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

Forest Bathing I
£400
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A very engaging and beautifully presented contemporary abstract composition, painted on to canvas by British artist Frances Daws.

The Forest Bathing series captures the feeling of walking through a forest on a warm day – how the light bounces off the leaves and shadows dance on the forest floor. Luscious greens and soft yellows create a deep feeling of calm and are reminiscent of long walks and time spent sitting amongst the trees and ferns.

This small abstract painting, set within a deep white frame, presents a swirling interplay of earthy tones—olive green, beige, ochre, and hints of rusty red. The brushwork is expressive and gestural, forming a loosely circular or spiral pattern that seems to draw the viewer inward.

The layered, textured strokes give the surface a sense of depth and movement, while the overall palette evokes natural elements like moss, bark, and soil.

This piece conveys quiet energy and contemplative rhythm, inviting the viewer to pause and reflect within its modest scale.
