Pears & Glass Vase
£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.

The composition presents a seascape with angular landforms in the foreground, shimmering under the moonlight. Two ships, one dark and another in a vivid orange hue, navigate the distant horizon, adding a sense of movement and narrative to the scene.

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

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

This oil on board is housed in a complementary grey-painted wood frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some surface paint loss.

Size: 34 x 47 cm (including frame)

An expressive and atmospheric mid-century winter landscape painting, executed in oil onto canvas.

The composition features a snow-covered path leading toward a partially frozen river, flanked by slender birch trees. In the background, a distant forest fades into a cool, atmospheric sky, where hints of pink and yellow suggest the warmth of a low winter sun.

Rendered in a bold expressionist style, the painting employs a dynamic palette of icy blues, deep navy, earthy browns, and soft pastels. The artist’s confident, impasto brushstrokes create depth and movement, particularly in the crisp reflections on the water and the rugged texture of the snow-covered ground.

Pastoral Horizon
£515
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A serene and atmospheric mid-century landscape composition, executed in oil onto canvas.

The painting features an expansive foreground of an open landscape in soft cream tones, leading the eye towards a row of farmhouses resting against a soft horizon of a gentle muted blue sky.

Modernist in its ethos, the scene has been reduced to essential forms, with broad horizontal planes in contrasting shades that emphasise atmosphere and mood over intricate detail.

The artist’s brushwork is confident and expressive yet restrained – with visible, deliberate strokes that suggest texture and movement without overworking details. The sky is rendered in smooth, even strokes, evoking a calm atmosphere, while the land and structures exhibit a more dynamic application of paint, adding contrast and visual interest.

This oil on canvas is housed in complementary gilt frame with multiple profiles. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some scuffing.

Size: 48 x 57 cm (including frame)

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.

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

Size: 39 x 39 cm (including frame)

Woodland Overtures
£470
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 ‘Woodland Overtures’, the composition is an interplay of bold, curvilinear forms that suggest the intertwining of trees, foliage, and natural pathways, reinterpreted through a modernist lens.

The palette is rich, featuring warm ochres, blacks, soft lilacs, and off-whites, punctuated by a striking red accent that commands attention at the painting’s core. Delicate red and black contour lines weave through the forms, adding a sense of structure and movement to the composition.

The brushstrokes vary between smooth, controlled edges and more spontaneous, gestural elements, giving depth and dynamism to the work.

This oil on board is housed in a complementary white frame. The painting has a very tiny area of paint loss at its right side as shown in close up. The frame has some very light marks but this does not detract from its overall appearance.

Size: 50 x 52 cm (including frame)
