  • Winter Blue

    Sold

    Free UK, Europe & Singapore shipping.

    A really striking abstract modernist composition in oil, painted in 1995.

    The artist has used broad, expressive and gestural brushwork to depict this composition, using a colour palette that captures the very essence of the cold icy landscape of winter. There is a palpable sense of movement and rhythm within the work – we can imagine the artist’s hand working back and forth, creating a myriad of marks and strokes on the paper. The colours used are also fascinating to explore – as we look closely at the work, a multitude of colours that appear through the layers of paint begin to show themselves.

    This oil is protected behind glass and as such, getting close up photos of the textures and depth proved tricky. The painting has wonderful areas of impasto (where the paint is applied so thickly that it stands proud from the surface), and a whole range of textural details.

    This oil is housed in a white frame and is protected behind glass. Please not that some reflection of the glass is evident in the photographs. The painting has a very small area of surface paint loss when viewed close up, but due to the expressive style and colours of the piece this loss is not very noticeable. It is otherwise in a good and stable condition. The frame has some minor scuffs, commensurate with age.

  • Stockholm in Winter

    Sold

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very pleasing and well executed mid century river & city scape composition, painted in oil onto canvas.

    The painting has a beautifully gentle feel to it – the artist has used mostly soft colours in a pastel palette, with the exception of darker colours for the wood structures within the scene. The artist has successfully conveyed the softness of fresh snow that has covered the landscape. The cityscape of Stockholm under a pastel sky lines the back of the composition, while in the foreground we see a boat docked on the river Söderström. In the foreground, the artist has used richer, darker colours contrasted with the white snow to give our eyes a focus, and then lightening as we move further back into the composition. The movement of the brushwork is also interesting to notice, with areas of more distinct horizontal and vertical strokes contrasting against other areas with shorter, swifter strokes.

    The painting is housed in a beautifully rustic wood frame with an inner gilt border, as well as a cream coloured slip. The painting is in very good vintage condition. The inner border of the frame has some marks, as shown in the photos.

  • The Boat

    Sold

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A small, mid century oil on board, painted in 1957.

    A seemingly simple yet very effective composition of a boat, painted in a semi abstract manner. The artist has  applied bold, broad and textured brushstrokes on the board, in deep, rich, vivid colours. Through the use of colour, the artist suggests to the viewer that this is a scene at sunset. The horizontal brushstrokes in the background  start off in a palette of blues, suggesting the sea, and then as we move upwards, the artist has incorporated reds, pinks, yellows, and orange tones to capture the sunset sky.

    The painting is housed in a wide profile wood frame with visible grain. Both painting and frame are in good vintage condition.

  • Sea Salt

    Sold

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very calming and restful mid century coastal composition in oil, painted onto board.

    Using soft, subtle colours for most of the composition, this soothing coastal landscape depicts a sandy beach with a wooded landscape to the right and blue waters to the left. A green bush to the right punctuates the composition and gives our eyes a focal point to rest on. Two white lines that indicate a path lead our eyes far into the distance, giving us a wonderful sense of the expansiveness of the coastalscape, transporting our minds far away to this restful place.  Long, expressive brushwork creates this well balanced composition which has been cleverly split into two angled halves.

    The painting is housed a beautiful wide profile gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The painting has some very minor scuffing which does not detract from its overall attractiveness.

  • Breeze

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free UK Shipping Only.

    A large and very beautifully painted mid century oil composition, painted onto canvas.

    The artist has captured the soft pervading light over the coastline wonderfully, using a range of very soothing colours to create this composition. Gentle yet expressive brushwork has been used, resulting in lots of texture as well as paint detail for the viewer to explore. The way the artist has painted the diffused light in the water and sky is reminiscent of the way Impressionist painters like Turner captured the ephemeral nature of light.

    This very calm and soothing painting is housed in a stunning grey wood frame with visible grain.  Both frame and painting are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Coast Trail

    Sold

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very well executed mid century coastalscape composition in oil, painted in 1948.

    Painted with broad, expressive brushwork in a semi abstract manner, this composition has a very distinctive feature – its red beach. Although the location is not specified, it could quite possibly be a depiction of the red sand beach in Santorini in Greece. The artist has used a deep and rich colour palette, with strokes that convey the ruggedness and vigour of the coastline. The area of red punctuates the centre of the composition, creating a focal point for the viewer’s eye.  As we shift our focus to the right, we begin to notice the layering and blending of all the various colours that the artist has used. The composition seems to go on far into the horizon, capturing the expanse of the natural landscape.

    The painting is housed in a stunning wood frame with visible grain, and with an inner and outer gilt window. Both frame and painting are in excellent vintage condition.

    Size: 55 x 63 cm (including frame)

  • Greek Coast

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free UK shipping.

    A large and atmospheric mid century composition in oil, depicting a coastal sunset in Rhodes, Greece.

    Painted in an expressionist manner, gestural brushwork creates this picturesque composition of a coastal sunset. Two coastal rocks flank the left side and are painted in a reddish brown colour with orange highlights, signalling the beginning of the evening light. The sun can be seen in the middle of the composition, its rays reflecting off the calm water at low tide.

  • Rosewood

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very soothing and restful mid century landscape composition in oil, painted onto board.

    A winding river leads our eye deep into the picture, transporting us into this rural wintery landscape surrounded by nature, where pockets of snow rest quietly on the ground. In the distance we see a wooded landscape lining the horizon, with just the tops of the mountains peaking out from behind. The rising sun casts its pinkish – purple hue over the landscape, giving this picture its warm glow. The artist has skilfully captured the peaceful and tranquil feel of this rural landscape through the use of expressive brushwork and colour.

    The painting is housed in  a very complementary gilt frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    The Trawler

    Sold

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An expressive mid 20th century modernist oil painting depicting a trawler out at sea, in the Karlshamn archipelago in Sweden.

    The artwork is characterised by painterly expressive brushstrokes, as well as a restrained and mellow colour palette that leaves an air of nostalgia.

    The dynamic and loose brushstrokes though executed with vigour, are thoughtful and precise, and wonderfully capture the transient conditions of nature and the movement of the boat.

    The frame is housed in its original mid century frame with an inner linen lined border. Both painting and frame are in good vintage condition.

  • Awash

    Sold

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An elegant and textured mid century abstract composition in oil, painted in 1959.

    Abstract and non-representational in nature, the artist encourages us to focus instead on the materiality and motion of the paint and brushwork. Gestural marks have been applied in a considered manner, making sure to keep its balance and colour harmony.  Although very much subject to personal interpretation, we think the dynamism, textures and colours of this painting could be reminiscent of the sea and its reefs.

    The painting is housed in its original mid century frame with a linen border. The painting has some scattered craquelure, typical for a painting with thickly applied paint of this age. The paint layer is stable overall and both painting and frame are in good condition otherwise.

  • Vista

    Sold

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A panoramic mid century landscape, painted in oil onto canvas.

    This long and very restful landscape features short and expressive brushstrokes in an array of soft colours. A row of white stepping leads our eyes leftwards and upwards along the bottom edge of the composition, reaching the area of sloping layered greens. This then takes our view back downwards towards what appears to be a pond or lake on the right side of the composition.

    This painting has a very soothing effect and would suit a bedroom or above-the-bed wall perfectly.

    The painting is housed in a beautiful gilt frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Winter Boats

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A large and very atmospheric mid century oil composition, painted in 1967.

    Two boats sit quietly on the ice, a static but powerful image. The red and black of the boats contrast starkly against the white and light blue of the ice. Thickly applied layers of paint capture the robustness and depth of the winter ground. We can imagine the artist moving his paint brush in a dance across the surface, building up the layers slowly but surely.  Two thirds of the composition is dedicated purely to the white icy ground, giving us a sense of the expansiveness of the wintery landscape.

    The painting is housed in a stunning wide profile frame with an inner gilt border that further illuminates the painting. Both painting and frame are in good vintage condition.

  • The Crossing

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A confidently executed and beautifully textured mid century landscape with reindeer, painted in oil onto board.

    This painting is both reminiscent of the post-impressionist style of artists like Van Gogh, as well as of Fauvist painters like  André Derain. It features thick, bold, undisguised brushstrokes in vibrant colours, and is very much a subjective, emotional response to the landscape (as opposed to just painting the landscape as realistically as possible). That being said, the artist has managed to strike a find balance between an emotional response and capturing the scene before him and how it looked. The combination of the texture and colouring of this painting makes it a stand out piece.

    The painting is also housed in an excellent castleton green frame with an inner white border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. There are some losses to the lower section of the inner white border of the frame that are only visible upon close inspection. These losses do not detract from the overall attractiveness of the piece.

  • Beach Day

    Sold

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An original mid century semi-abstract coastal composition, painted in oil onto canvas.

    The artist has added an aggregate to the paint, giving the painting a very textured effect. In addition to this, he has used thick swirls of paint creating areas of impasto which add to the three dimensionality of the painting. The gestural strokes give the painting a sense of movement, capturing the physicality of the wind and waves of the seaside.

    Vivid colours fill the composition, from the orangey yellows of the sand, to the blues and whites of the ocean, as well as the the blueish greys of the sky. The artist has painted an outline of a figure to the left side of the composition, and has used a very interesting technique by making the figure almost translucent, as if he or she is almost at one with the seascape.

    This oil on canvas is housed in its original mid century gilt frame with an inner linen lining. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some general wear and scuff, commensurate with age.

  • Coastal Rocks

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A charming and picturesque modernist style oil painting, presenting a coastal landscape composition of rock formation and greenery by the sea.

    Executed in a semi-abstract manner, the artist has simplified forms to down to distinct coloured shapes and expressive brushstrokes . The rich and lively earthy colours harmonise wonderfully together, and also demonstrate a sense of depth and width to the painting.

    This oil on board is housed in a lovely grainy light wood frame that complements the painting very well. Both artwork and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Pontoon

    Sold

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A semi-abstract mid century geometric painting in oil, dated 1954.

    Here the artist has captured an industrial marine structure, the pontoon crane. The artist has flattened the composition into sections of flat coloured planes, as well as dark angular lines. Through the use of these geometric shapes and lines, the artist has conveyed the ‘industrial’ sense of the scene through these formal qualities, rather than through a realistic depiction of the crane, pontoon and harbour buildings. This is very much a modernist ethos, where artists painting in this period were incorporating the aesthetic of the ‘machine’ and other industrialist activities into their art.

    This oil painting is housed in a robust solid wood frame, which suits it very well. The painting is in very good vintage condition. The oak frame has some general scuffing and a small indent to the left and right edges (as seen in photos) but this does not detract from its overall attractiveness.

    The objects and buildings have been defined by dark thin outlines, drawing our attention to their individual forms and shape.

    Though the use of fine and light brushstrokes as well as a cool palette including blues and white, the artist has managed to wonderfully capture the calm and stillness in this painting.

    This oil on canvas is in excellent vintage condition. It is housed in a grainy wood frame with an inner silver window. The frame has some minor areas of scuff.

  • Wetland

    Sold

    SOLD.

    An atmospheric and visually calming mid century landscape composition, painted in oil onto canvas.

    The artist reconstructs this nature wetland with a foggy feel in a semi-abstract manner through the use of a restrained palette, flattened forms and painterly brushstrokes.

    The contrasting lighter and darker muted tones makes the painting very well balanced. The work has a thoroughly soothing effect, and there is a satisfying cohesiveness in the picture overall.

    This artwork is housed in its original mid century wood frame with an inner linen lining and gilt window which illuminates the painting. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Abstract City

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A small but outstanding mid 20th century oil painting of a cityscape, painted in an abstract manner.

    The artist has skilfully abstracted the city containing  buildings, foliage and a river down through the use of contrasting blocks of colours.

    Naturalistic shades comprising muted earthy tones of beige, green and blue fill the canvas; and the distribution of contrasting colours not only demonstrate a strong sense of depth to this painting, but make the work well balanced.

    Broad and expressive textured brushstrokes have been confidently executed, creating a raw textural effect and enhancing the painting overall.

    This gorgeous oil on canvas would certainly stand out in any interior, whether traditional or modern.

    The painting is housed in its original mid century wood frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Even

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A subtle and sombre mid-century abstract painting, rendered in oil.

    Horizontal planes of neutral colours painted with light sweeping brushstrokes lay across the canvas so harmoniously, enriching the painting with a calming and soothing aesthetic.

    Despite its abstract nature, the colour palette and composition of this stunning work could allude to a scene of wetlands on a cold and misty winter’s day.

    This oil on canvas is in overall good vintage condition. There are some areas of craquelure (fine cracks in the paint) in the painting. It is housed in a thin grey frame, that has some minor marks and scuffs.

  • Sublime

    Sold

    A stunning and emotive impressionist painting depicting a sunrise at sea, executed in oil in 1948. The artwork celebrates the beauty of nature, and is in reminiscent of works by British landscape painter JMW Turner.

    Through the careful use of light and colour, the painting displays the artist’s desire to capture the natural atmospheric elements and movement of water created at that particular moment in time.

    Combining both a warm and cool palette, one can notice warm light yellows and calming cool blues shifting across the painting. The effectiveness of lighting is achieved though the use of energetic and loose brushstrokes, invigorating the work a sense of dynamism.

    This oil on canvas is in good vintage condition. There are light scattered areas of craquelure across the painting commensurate with its age, but the paint is in very stable condition.

  • In the Distance

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A gentle and panoramic seascape in oil, that captures the beauty and solitude of nature.

    Painted in an abstract manner, the artist has chosen not to paint in realistic details and instead has rendered a hazy impression of what appears to be a boat in the middle of a vast ocean.

    Using a restrained palette of cool blues, white and grey, the work captures a seamless transition of the sea and sky so wonderfully. And the quick and expressive brushstrokes create a blurry feel of that moment in time as well as add a lovely textural quality to the work.

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