  • Afternoon by the Lake

    £415

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A emotive and expressive mid-century modernist painting that presents a solitary figure relaxing on a wooden dock, gazing out over a rippling lake bordered by lush trees and distant mountains, executed in oil onto board.

    The figure, clad in a red headscarf and earthy-toned dress, is rendered with simplified yet expressive forms, evoking a moment of quiet introspection in nature.

    The composition reflects the hallmarks of mid-century modernist sensibilities: bold brushwork, expressive abstraction, and a spontaneous energy that animates the landscape. The artist has used a rich palette of greens, yellows, sky blues, and dashes of terracotta, building depth and texture through broad, impasto strokes. The water shimmers with layered greens and whites, and the trees are defined with confident, gestural marks.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary wood frame with gilt border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has a minor scuff at its bottom right corner, as shown.

  • St Ives Head I

    £1,400

    Available

    Free UK delivery only.

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

    This abstract oil painting of St Ives Head conveys a powerful impression of the Cornish landscape through bold colour blocks and expressive brushwork. The composition is dominated by a strong horizontal division:

    The lower portion features lush, vibrant greens, suggestive of the headland’s grassy terrain. These greens are layered and varied, with hints of dark shadows and occasional streaks of red and orange adding depth and movement. A sweeping form of deep black and charcoal arcs through the upper and middle sections, perhaps alluding to the rocky outcrop of St Ives Head or the moody Atlantic shadows. This shape anchors the piece and creates dramatic contrast. Surrounding these darker masses, icy blues and muted whites evoke the sky and sea, with the brushwork ranging from smooth to vigorously textured. Pops of pink and red in fine linear marks add visual interest and energetic tension across the central area.

    The painting is both abstract and landscape-inspired, distilling the raw essence of the coastal headland into expressive colour fields and gestural marks. It reflects the elemental forces of land, sea, and weather typical of St Ives, rendered in a deeply personal, modernist style.

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

  • Terracotta Coastline

    £575

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A captivating modernist abstract painting that evokes a coastal village set against a distant sea and seen from an elevated viewpoint, executed in oil onto board.

    The composition is built on a series of bold, gestural blocks of colour – burnt orange, yellow verdant green – suggesting terracotta roofs, foliage, and sunlit structures nestled in the hillside.

    The artist has used a distinctly expressive style, using thick, confident brushstrokes that emphasise texture and movement. The top half of the canvas opens into a serene, pale sky and a smooth, luminous band of blue sea, rendered in calm horizontal strokes that contrast with the dynamic geometry below.

    Hints of architectural forms and natural growth are abstracted into vivid planes and swaths of colour, capturing the atmosphere, structure, and vibrancy of a Mediterranean coastal scene. With its interplay of abstraction and suggestion, this work invites the viewer to linger and imagine.

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

  • Harbour Light

    £525

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A charming mid-century modernist coastal painting that captures a serene dockside scene bathed in soft daylight, executed in oil onto board and dated 1956.

    Fishing boats are moored alongside a working pier, flanked by crates, nets, and a striking red navigation beacon at centre. The artist has used a flattened perspective and simplified forms to convey the geometry of the harbour while preserving its quiet charm.

    Rendered in a harmonious palette of green, powder blue, yellow, and muted crimson, the composition is infused with a breezy, contemplative atmosphere. The brushwork is energetic yet controlled  – broad, confident strokes describe boats and buildings, while finer, expressive lines evoke movement in the water and grass. The interplay of structure and spontaneity gives the painting both architectural weight and lyrical rhythm.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary champagne wood frame with an inner linen border. The painting has scattered areas of craquelure as shown, and a small area of paint loss to the upper edge (also shown in close ups). The frame is in good vintage condition.

  • Harbour View

    £455

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A soothing mid-century modernist painting that captures an abstracted waterfront scene rendered with bold geometric blocks and restrained tonal contrasts, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1968.

    The viewer’s perspective is elevated, possibly from a balcony or overpass, looking out across a harbour populated with moored boats and a white ferry gliding through calm waters.

    The artist has used a flattened, semi-cubist approach to space and form, using simplified shapes and thick, deliberate brushstrokes to construct the architecture and landscape. A palette of muted greys, brown, rust, and soft blues evokes an overcast or wintry atmosphere, while the warm orange of the lower rooftops adds grounding contrast.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary wood frame with an inner linen border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has very minor scuffing.

    A calming and serene abstract coastal landscape that suggests a sky, sea, and shoreline in soft, atmospheric layers, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 2005.

    Abstract in style, the composition features fluid, overlapping forms that hint at cloud cover, water reflections, and horizon lines, all rendered with an airy touch.

    The artist has used a muted, harmonious palette of pastel tones – pale blue, soft yellow, sage green, and creamy white – punctuated by gentle accents of orange. Broad, smooth brushstrokes contrast with areas of stippled texture, creating depth and movement while maintaining an overall sense of calm.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Still Shores

    £475

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A serene and minimalist modernist style coastal landscape oil painting dated 1972, 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.

    Small in size yet impactful, the composition captures the quiet harmony between land, sea, and sky in a distilled coastal scene. The composition is divided horizontally, with a cool expanse of pale blue water occupying the lower half, gently meeting a strip of muted earth tones – browns and greens – that represent a distant, tree-lined coast. Rounded, blocky foliage punctuates the landscape, offering visual rhythm and balance.

    Executed with flat planes of colour and simplified shapes, the style reflects mid-century modernist sensibilities — favouring form and mood over detail. The brushwork is smooth and restrained, emphasising the clean geometry of the scene and lending it a meditative stillness.

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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Coastal Cafe

    £530

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very atmospheric mid century modernist composition in oil, painted onto board.

    This painting depicts a sunlit café terrace beside the harbour in Paphos, Cyprus, rendered in a loose, impressionistic style. The scene exudes Mediterranean warmth and leisure, with golden light dominating the palette.

    The buildings behind the terrace are painted in soft pastel tones—lavender, peach, and ochre—with subtle shadows suggesting the intensity of the midday sun. A line of round-topped trees stretches into the distance along the promenade, creating a rhythmic, almost sculptural element. On the right side, the calm, blue harbour is visible, with moored boats, gentle waves, and sunlit reflections adding a tranquil touch. In the background, rolling hills and headlands suggest the rugged Cypriot coastline fading into a hazy, sun-washed distance.

    The brushwork is loose and expressive, focusing on form and light over fine detail. Figures and objects are suggested rather than defined, giving the scene a dreamy, almost timeless quality.

    This work captures a moment of peaceful coastal life, where locals and visitors enjoy the simple pleasure of sitting at a café by the sea. The painting reflects the relaxed elegance of Cyprus and conveys the hazy beauty of Mediterranean light, inviting the viewer into its idyllic atmosphere.

    The painting is set in a sleek, gold-toned frame that complements the warm tones and enhances the classical Mediterranean ambience. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Coastal Road

    £450

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A large mid-century modernist landscape painting that captures a serene coastal scene where a quiet road runs parallel to a shoreline, executed in oil onto board.

    The composition divides naturally into two sections: the vibrant blue of the sea on the left and the muted green of the grassy roadside on the right. In the foreground, a dry and sparse landscape is present, and a few scattered wooden planks rest on the ground. The distant horizon line reveals a subtle strip of land or an island against the vast expanse of sky.

    The artist has used a distinctly modernist approach, characterised by loose, gestural brushstrokes that emphasise texture and spontaneity. The composition has a balanced yet asymmetrical feel. The painting’s rough and textured brushwork brings a sense of immediacy and movement, as if capturing a fleeting moment.

  • Seaside Stroll

    £445

    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.

  • 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.

    This large oil on canvas is housed in a complementary silver wood frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some scuffing present.

    £630

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A mid-century modern painting that features a dreamlike coastal landscape, defined by its geometric abstractions and surreal composition, executed in oil onto board and dated 1948.

    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.

    A large and engaging mid-century modernist still life painting that presents an elegant arrangement of glass bottles and a ceramic bowl on a table, set against a serene coastal backdrop, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The composition is framed by two dark vertical elements, likely window shutters, drawing the viewer’s eye toward the deep blue sea and a distant green landmass on the horizon. The bottles, both clear and green, create a mesmerising interplay of transparency, light, and reflection, subtly distorting the landscape behind them.

  • Echoes of the Coast

    £400

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    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. A vivid blue sky stretches above a deep azure ocean, with small landmasses appearing in the distance. 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.

  • Drift and Thought

    £530

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    The painting features two abstracted figures seated near a boat. The figure on the left, clad in a striking yellow coat, appears to be engaged in quiet reflection, while the darker-clothed figure in the foreground seems to be writing or sketching. A boat, rendered in bold strokes of blue and red, rests on the shore, adding a strong geometric contrast to the muted landscape.

    Executed in a modernist style, the artist has skilfully simplified the forms into blocks of contrasting shades, and has used a restrained yet effective palette.

    The vibrant yellow of the coat and the red of the boat capture our attention, as they stand out among the overall subdued shades that imbue the work with a soothing quality.

    The brushstrokes are thick and expressive, applied with a sense of immediacy and texture that enhances the painting’s tactile quality.

    The composition is carefully balanced, with the diagonal placement of the boat and figures guiding the viewer’s eye across the painting, creating a sense of depth.

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

    A large mid-century abstract landscape painting that captures a tranquil coastal scene framed by lush greenery and golden landscapes, executed in oil onto canvas.

    A narrow inlet leads the eye toward the deep blue waters of the sea, while sandy, golden-hued landforms in the foreground create a sense of depth and movement. The sky is rendered in soft muted greys and blues, suggesting an overcast or serene atmosphere.

  • Coastal Horizons

    £550

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A serene mid-century modernist coastal landscape that captures the essence of a tranquil shoreline, executed in oil onto board and dated 1977 on the reverse.

    The work exhibits an abstract, yet expressive style, characterised by a loose, painterly approach, and focuses on the interplay of form and colour as opposed to realistic details.

    The artist has used broad and gestural brushstrokes, creating a sense of movement and fluidity. The use of short expressive dabs used to paint the landscape and sky contrasts with the smooth, almost ethereal handling of the water and sand, which adds character to the painting.

    A harmonious palette of soft blues, whites, and muted earth tones dominate the work, infusing the scene with a calming aesthetic. The cool blues of the water contrast gently with the muted sands, while touches of olive green and yellow along the shore evoke the natural beauty of the scene.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary solid wood frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some scuffing as shown.

  • Boulders

    £710

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very well executed mid century modernist semi-abstract landscape depicting a rocky shoreline with water reflecting the rugged terrain, painted in oil onto canvas.

     

    The scene features large rock formations in both the foreground and background, possibly part of a coastal or lakeside setting. The water is calm, reflecting the shapes and colours of the rocks, creating a mirror-like effect. In the background, hills or cliffs rise up, depicted in broad, angular shapes.

    The brushstrokes are loose and expressive, giving the painting a textured, layered appearance. The artist uses both soft blended areas and sharp, angular strokes, which adds a dynamic, almost cubist-like abstraction to the rocks. The water is rendered with fluid, sweeping strokes, capturing the movement of light and reflection.

    This painting conveys a sense of tranquillity and natural beauty, focusing on the interplay of light, texture, and form. The bold, simplified rocks contrast with the fluid reflections in the water, creating a dynamic yet harmonious composition. The artist’s expressive brushwork and modernist approach make this piece feel both timeless and contemporary, evoking the serenity of a quiet coastal landscape.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a well suited silver frame, complementing the cool tones of the sky and water while maintaining a contemporary aesthetic. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some very minor scuffs but is in good condition overall.

  • Geometric Harbour

    £565

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A gentle and brilliantly executed mid-century modern painting that features an abstracted harbour scene, painted in oil onto board and dated 1960.

    The composition likely depicts a small fishing village with moored boats and angular buildings nestled along the shore. Containing elements of geometric abstraction, the forms of the boats and  architectural elements have been deconstructed and simplified into an arrangement of sharp lines and faceted shapes.

    The colour palette is an elegant blend of muted earth tones, including yellow, deep green, soft blue, and beige, creating a harmonious, atmospheric effect. The boats are rendered in stark white, drawing the viewer’s eye toward the center of the composition.

    Executed in a restrained yet confident manner, the brushstrokes are smooth and blended, with subtle textural variations that enhance depth and structure.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame with an inner linen lining and white border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some surface marks at the bottom right of its inner border.

    An atmospheric mid-century abstract coastal landscape, executed in oil onto board.

    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.

    An expressive mid-century modernist style coastal landscape painting, executed in oil onto board and dated 1957.

The foreground includes tufts of dune grass rendered in soft greens.
    The colour palette is dominated by deep blues, greens, and sandy earth tones, with the stark black of the boat providing a dramatic focal point.
    The artist has used a bold and expressive style – confidently executing visible brushstrokes that add texture and dynamism, particularly in the depiction of the waves, which are layered with impasto strokes of white and dark blue to capture their motion and energy.

    This oil on board is set in a complementary silver frame. There are some very minor surface marks to painting but these do not detract from its overall appearance. The frame has some scuffs and paint loss.

  • Coastal Abstraction

    £1,000

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking and brilliantly executed mid-century modernist abstract composition that captures a rugged coastal landscape through a geometric interplay of angular shapes and layered textures, painted in oil onto board and dated 1959 by Swedish artist Gustaf Skoglund (1923-2003).

    Rendered in an abstract, almost cubist manner, the artist has skilfully deconstructed and fragmented the natural scenery into overlapping planes of earthy browns, muted blues, and soft greys, evoking the rocky shoreline, rolling dunes, and distant waters.

    The palette consists of subdued, earthy hues that imbue the work with a soothing yet nostalgic quality. The brushstrokes vary—some areas exhibit smooth, blended applications, while others feature expressive, swift horizontal strokes that emphasise the tactile nature of rock formations and land contours.

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