    Snowy Rooftops

    £425

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A small yet evocative mid-century abstract painting that presents an interpretation of a wintry urban landscape, executed in oil onto board.

    Likely viewed from an elevated vantage point, the composition depicts snow-covered rooftops and architectural forms simplified into bold planes and tonal contrasts, hinting at chimneys, dormers, and stone facades under a muted sky.

    Rendered in a restrained palette of cold greys, browns, and beiges, the painting evokes the quietude of a snow-blanketed city. The brushwork is dynamic yet deliberate – broad, textured strokes create rhythmic abstractions of built forms, while impasto accents add depth and tactile intensity. The work borders on abstraction but retains enough figuration to suggest a real, lived environment – familiar yet stylised.

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

  • Southern Shore

    Southern Shore

    £740

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very atmospheric and expressive abstract landscape painting, executed in oil onto board by contemporary British artist Ian Mood.

    It captures the emotional essence of a coastal environment rather than a literal depiction, using abstract forms and a painterly style to evoke the energy, complexity, and richness of the scene.

    Earthy tones of red, brown, black, and orange dominate the central form, possibly alluding to rock formations, cliffs, or human structures. The bottom area is awash with cool greys, off-whites, and hints of gold, possibly representing a beach or tidal flat.

    The atmosphere is introspective yet vigorous, echoing nature’s forces—wind, water, erosion—while remaining grounded in abstract expressionism.

    The style is gestural and semi-abstract, reminiscent of mid-20th-century European modernism, where landscape becomes a conduit for emotional expression.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary white frame.  Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

  • Still Life with Chalice

    Still Life with Chalice

    £785

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking mid-century modernist still life composition, executed in oil onto board and dated 1956.

    Central to the work is a dark green bottle and a silver-toned chalice, rendered with thick brushstrokes and strong contouring. A pair of oranges rest in the foreground, its saturated tones adding a burst of warmth against the cool tonalities.

    The composition is built on interlocking planes of colour – muted greens and blues, yellow, and greys – forming an almost Cubist backdrop that suggests a tabletop and surrounding walls. The brushwork is expressive and textured, with visible strokes that give the surface a sculptural quality. The use of shadow and contrast imbues the otherwise abstracted objects with weight and presence.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary white frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has slight wear to its edges as shown, but is in good condition overall.

  • Zennor

    Zennor

    £890

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A large and very atmospheric landscape painting, painted onto board by contemporary British artist Ian Mood.

    This semi-abstract landscape powerfully captures the wild, changeable atmosphere of the Cornish coast, likely inspired by the moody environment near the village of Zennor in southwest England.

    The sky dominates the composition with a bold expanse of turquoise blue, suggesting a clearing or break in weather. A large, dark grey cloud mass occupies the centre, rendered with sweeping, smudged strokes that create a sense of motion and tension. Deeper greens, browns, and black at the bottom evoke moorland or rugged earth, painted with energetic brushwork and scraped textures.

    The painting exudes a dramatic, elemental energy, evoking the feeling of standing exposed to the sky on coastal high ground, just before or after a storm. It feels both expansive and intimate, caught between serenity and threat—hallmarks of Cornwall’s raw natural beauty.

    This painting  is housed in a complementary white frame.  Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

  • Chair by the Wall

    Chair by the Wall

    £765

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking mid-century modernist style composition of an interior scene, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1948 by the established Swedish artist Rune Janson (1918-2004), who’s artworks have been displayed at the National Museum in Stockholm, Moderna Museet in Stockholm, Gothenburg Art Museum and other museums in Sweden and the National Gallery in Oslo and the Centre Georges Pompidou Paris.

    The painting captures a simplified interior scene anchored by a solitary wooden chair, rendered in bold, gestural strokes. Positioned against a backdrop of abstracted architectural forms, the composition distills a domestic setting into its essential shapes and tones.

    Modernist in its ethos and executed in an expressive style, the artist has used wide, confident brushstrokes and a palette of muted shades including purple, orange and blue. The chair – angular and minimally detailed – is positioned diagonally, its presence both grounded and abstract, inviting the viewer into a contemplative space.

    The painting’s flat planes and rhythmic blocks of colour speak to the influence of European modernism, where figuration merges seamlessly with abstraction. The brushwork is raw and tactile, allowing the texture of the paint and canvas to resonate with emotional immediacy.

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

  • Coastal Curve

    Coastal Curve

    £750

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

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

    The painting captures a sweeping coastal road as it bends gently toward the sea. Modernist in its ethos, the composition is defined by its bold simplification of form – trees, path, and shoreline reduced to expressive, geometric shapes in contrasting colour.

    The brushwork is confident and flat, with areas of solid colour laid down in deliberate blocks, creating a sense of stylised stillness. Trees appear as abstracted vertical forms, their trunks and canopies subtly suggested rather than rendered in detail.

    Muted tones of green, grey, and earthy taupe dominate the land, while the sea is rendered in serene blues punctuated by white sails, adding rhythm and motion to the horizon. The sky, a dusty olive-grey, creates a harmonious counterbalance to the grounded palette below.

    This oil on board is housed in very well suited wood frame. there is some wear on the left edge of the painting where it meets the frame, but the painting is in good vintage condition overall. The frame has very minor scuffing.

  • Late Winter

    Late Winter

    Sold

    SOLD

    A moody and atmospheric mid-century winter landscape painting, executed in oil onto canvas.

    Two bare birch trees stand in the foreground, their stark verticality cutting across a field of muted snow and earth. Behind them, a dense and darkened woodland looms, its tangle of branches rendered with expressive, energetic strokes.

    Colours are earthy and subdued: taupes, browns, and cool greys dominate the palette, punctuated by occasional hints of icy blue and pale sand. The sky is heavy and dramatic, echoing the dense line of trees below it.

    The confident, textural brushstrokes vary in direction, and the style is loose and gestural. This painting evokes a fleeting seasonal moment – cold, contemplative, and grounded in the quiet beauty of nature.

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

  • By the Arches

    By the Arches

    Sold

    SOLD

    A striking and very well executed mid century modernist composition in oil, painted onto board by 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.

    It depicts a stylized North African architectural scene, characterized by a row of arched windows and whitewashed buildings with flat roofs. The structure is rendered with bold, simplified shapes and thick black outlines, giving it a graphic, modernist quality.

    The palette is warm and muted, dominated by creamy whites, ochres, deep blues, and burnt siennas, evoking a desert or sunlit townscape. The composition is horizontally oriented, emphasizing the linearity of the architecture and the contrast between the built environment and the figures.

    The painting has a modernist, almost expressionistic style, with an emphasis on shape, shadow, and form over fine detail. The mood is contemplative and quiet, possibly evoking the heat and stillness of a midday scene. The use of flat perspective and colour blocking contributes to a sense of abstraction, while still grounding the image in recognizable, real-world elements.

    The painting is well presented in a gilt frame which suits it impeccably. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Village Across the Water

    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.

    £695

    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.

    £445

    Available

    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.

    A bold and expressive mid-century modernist figurative composition, painted in oil and gouache onto board by the established Swedish female artist Brita Hansson (1918-1979).

    The painting depicts two seated female figures in vivid red garments, engaged in quiet dialogue or mutual contemplation. Their forms are abstracted, rendered without facial features, allowing posture and colour to convey mood and intimacy.

    The painting bursts with saturated reds, deep purples, and yellows, offset by bold swathes of white and textured brushwork that creates a dynamic, almost rhythmic background. The foreground is punctuated by gestural strokes of lilac, grey-blue, and orange, suggesting fruit or textiles on a table.

    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.

  • Fragments of the City (Reserved)

    Fragments of the City (Reserved)

    Sold

    SOLD

    A captivating mid-century modernist painting that depicts a stylised urban landscape, characterised by a series of geometric forms representing rooftops, buildings, and water, executed in oil onto board.

    Modernist in its ethos with a focus on the artist’s exploration of form and abstraction, the scene captures the essence of a townscape, possibly a riverside or harbour area, rendered in a semi-abstract manner. The architectural forms have been fragmented into angular, interlocking planes, and the cubist influence is evident in the faceted representation of buildings and their integration into the surrounding landscape.

    The palette consists of soft, muted tones, including pastel shades that harmonise with deeper hues of brown and red. The subtle blending of colours creates a cohesive and atmospheric effect, while the subdued tones evoke a tranquil, contemplative mood.

    The brushwork is expressive, with short, layered strokes that create a sense of depth and movement. The overlapping strokes enhance the impression of architectural complexity and spatial rhythm.

    This oil on board is housed in a very well-suited distressed style grey painted wood frame with an inner gilt window. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    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.

    Abstract Trio

    £610

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A mid-century abstract figurative painting that captures a serene and introspective atmosphere, depicting three abstract human forms in a seated arrangement, executed in oil onto board.

    The figures, rendered in earthy tones of brown, beige, and muted grey, appear to be engaged in a quiet, contemplative moment. The artist has used a combination of broad, gestural brushstrokes and textured layering, which gives the figures a rugged, almost sculptural presence within the composition.

    The background is a juxtaposition of muted green and off-white blocks of colour, suggesting an interior space or an abstracted environment. The deliberate abstraction of the figures, reduced to essential forms and shapes, allows for multiple interpretations, emphasising mood and presence over detailed representation.

    The painting’s style reflects the mid-century modernist movement, characterised by a harmonious blend of abstraction and figuration. The artist’s use of subdued, natural colours evokes a soothing, meditative feeling, while the brushwork conveys a sense of spontaneity and raw emotion.

    Contours of the Earth

    £595

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A captivating and wonderfully textured large mid-century abstract landscape painting, executed in oil onto canvas.

    Abstract in nature, the painting transports the viewer to a vast, windswept terrain, reminiscent of rugged coastlines or snow-covered plains. The composition exudes a sense of movement and fluidity, as if the landscape itself is caught in a moment of transformation.

    The artist has used an expressive and dynamic impasto technique, layering thick, textured strokes to create depth and dimension. The brushstrokes are bold and confident, adding a tactile quality to the piece, while the swirling lines and undulating forms hint at the forces of nature shaping the environment.

    The colour palette is a harmonious blend of muted, earthy tones – soft greys, off-whites, and hints of yellow – evoking the subdued atmosphere of a windswept wilderness. The subtle gradients of grey merge seamlessly into the creamy whites, with occasional touches of olive and beige that suggest geological formations.

    The painting’s abstract nature allows for multiple interpretations, but its textured surface and organic flow invite contemplation of natural phenomena – perhaps eroded landscapes, flowing water, or windswept plains.

    £485

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking modernist painting that presents a dynamic abstract composition characterised by flowing, interlocking geometric shapes, executed in oil onto board and dated 1986.

    The forms intertwine and overlap, creating a sense of motion and complexity. The dominant palette of cool blues, soft greys, and warm orange gives the work a calm yet grounded aesthetic, balanced by the interplay of warm and cool tones.

    The brushstrokes are precise, emphasising clean lines and distinct colour blocking. The overall impression is reminiscent of mid-century abstraction, with hints of cubist influence in the fragmented and reassembled forms. The painting’s harmonious use of curves and angular shapes evokes a sense of both tension and resolution.

    The composition suggests a fluid, almost sculptural quality, inviting viewers to interpret the shapes as dynamic forms in a state of transformation or movement.

    £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.

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A lively mid-century interior scene painting  that captures a vividly colourful and expressive depiction of a domestic space, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The composition centers around a room with vibrant furnishings, including a wooden chair, a bookshelf filled with books, a yellow lampshade, and an adjacent room seen through an open doorway. The secondary room, bathed in bright light, hints at a more spacious and airy ambiance, in contrast to the cozy foreground.

    The artist has used bold, angular brushstrokes and a palette dominated by deep blues, rich oranges, vibrant greens, and touches of yellow. The colours are juxtaposed with an intensity that emphasises both structure and warmth. The expressive, gestural brushstrokes add light texture and movement, giving the painting a lively, almost rhythmic feel. The painter’s loose yet deliberate approach to form and colour results in an energetic, spontaneous atmosphere.

    The dominant visual motif consists of overlapping, translucent arch shapes that rise from a calm blue sea, reminiscent of towering, otherworldly rock formations or monumental arches. In the background, stylised islands emerge, silhouetted against a deep blue sky. A small, solitary boat in the foreground adds a human element, emphasising the scale and solitude of the scene.

    The style of the painting blends elements of abstraction and surrealism. The use of clean, overlapping shapes creates a sense of depth and dimension, while the simplified forms hint at both architectural and natural inspiration.

    The brushwork is meticulous and controlled, emphasising sharp edges and smooth colour transitions. The palette is dominated by cool tones, including deep navy blues, teal, and soft mint greens, creating a tranquil and contemplative mood. The interplay of lighter and darker shades enhances the layering effect, while subtle highlights suggest reflections on water.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary wood frame with ridges. The painting has some very minor marks, but is in good condition overall. The frame has some scuffing.

    Size: 59 x 51 cm (including frame)

    An expressive and richly textured mid-century landscape composition, executed in oil onto board and dated 1939.

    The painting depicts a tranquil rural scene, dominated by a winding path leading towards a small, rustic red cabin. The scene is surrounded by rolling hills adorned with tall, narrow trees, showcasing a variety of green and earthy tones. In the foreground, a tree with sparse leaves reaches over the path, creating a natural arch that frames the view. The background reveals a dense forest on the hillside, painted in darker, muted hues, suggesting depth and distance.

    The artist has used an impressionistic style with bold, expressive brushstrokes that give the painting a dynamic and textured quality.

The brushwork, particularly in the pathway and foliage, is deliberately loose, emphasising movement and the natural flow of the landscape.

  • Watermelon & Pot

    Watermelon & Pot

    £495

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A wonderfully textured mid-century still life composition that presents a vibrant arrangement of everyday objects rendered with bold character, painted in oil onto board and dated 1973.

    At the heart of the composition is a sliced watermelon, surrounded by ripe green pears, a rustic earthenware jug, and a warm-toned plate. These elements are laid out on a richly textured white cloth, draped dramatically to heighten the sense of depth and realism.

    fusing realism with expressive, impasto brushwork, there is an emphasis on form and materiality rather than fine detail. The brushstrokes are thick and confident, creating dynamic surface movement and a palpable sense of texture.

    The artist has used a warm and earthy colour scheme, and the stark contrast between the dark background and the light cloth enhances the visual impact of the fruit and vessels.

    This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary wood frame with an inner silver window. The painting has some scattered craquelure present but paint layer is very stable overall. There is also some paint loss around the signature area at the bottom left. The frame has some losses to its outer edges, but this is not noticeable from the front.

  • Beneath the Pale Sky

    Beneath the Pale Sky

    £825

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A brilliantly executed mid-century figurative composition, painted 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 two elongated female figures standing in stark silhouette, each holding a basket above their heads. Their forms are rendered in an abstracted, minimalist manner, emphasising gesture over detail. The simplified architecture in the background grounds the figures in a flattened, geometric landscape that resembles desert dwellings.

    Strongly influenced by modernist abstraction, the work embraces a reduction of form and a keen sense of balance.

    The colour palette is restrained, revolving around earthy and warm tones of browns and blush. The subdued colours evoke a sense of nostalgia, while the interplay of tones adds depth to the scene.

    The brushstrokes are soft and gentle, contributing to the smoothness of the surface and imbuing a soothing quality throughout the artwork.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary linen lined wood frame with an inner gilt window that suits that painting very well. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some age marks on its linen border.

  • Ice Fishing

    Ice Fishing

    £495

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A mid-century oil painting that captures the quiet moment of an ice fisher, seated beside a small sled on a vast, frozen expanse, 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 figure is huddled near a freshly cut fishing hole, his vibrant clothing and gear providing a focal point against the endless white landscape. The distant horizon, painted in soft bands of pastel blues, greens, and violets, evokes the crisp stillness of a winter sky.

    Minimalist and impressionistic, the work favours capturing mood and atmosphere over intricate details. The artist conveys emotion through the restrained composition, focusing the viewer’s attention on the quiet perseverance of the scene.

    The palette is soft and delicate, capturing the serene nature of the scene.  The artist has used smooth, horizontal brushstrokes to build the expansive landscape and layered sky, while shorter, expressive marks define the figure and the cluster of dry grasses in the foreground. These contrasting textures add visual interest to the painting.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has very minot scuffing but is in very good condition overall.
