Blush Horizon (Set of 2)
$678.00
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

An elegant pair of minimalist landscapes, dated 1985, that captures the serene beauty of open land under a soft rose-tinted sky, and executed in oil onto canvas.

The two compositions are designed to complement each other: one showing a gentle line of birch trees standing in rhythmic formation, the other depicting a quiet rise with a few slender trunks and a simple wire fence stretching across the horizon.

The artist has used a restrained modernist palette of blush pink, misty grey, and muted greens, allowing atmosphere and tone to take centre stage. The brushwork is delicate and deliberate – light dabs and soft stippling define the foliage, while smooth gradients create a sense of still air and fading distance.

Together, the pair evokes a dreamlike calm: a moment of dusk or dawn frozen in time, and would bring a refined sense of balance and tranquillity to any space.

These oil on canvases are housed in complementary silver and black frames. There are some light marks near the tops and bottoms of each work, consistent with age and display. The frames have some light wear and scuffing, though this does little to detract from the overall elegance of the pair.

$915.00
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A bright and serene mid-century still life that captures a cluster of orange daylilies basking in sunlight, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1955.

The artist captures a fleeting, luminous moment with sunlight filtering through leaves and petals, transforming the everyday sight of blooming daylilies into something almost transcendent. There’s a sense of calm vitality here: the blooms, rendered in warm tones of orange and gold with touches of coral and crimson, rise dynamically from the cool greens of their leaves, their upward gesture bringing movement and energy to the composition.

Rendered with thick, expressive brushstrokes, the work feels both spontaneous and deeply considered. It invites the viewer not only to look but to feel the warmth of the sun and the peaceful rhythm of a day slowly unfolding.

Difficult Tableau
$461.00
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

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

This painting showcases Durling’s distinctive abstract vocabulary—tactile, spatially quiet, and emotionally charged through texture and colour. It feels like a visual diary entry composed of silences punctuated by vivid moments.

Durling introduces small blocks of intense, saturated colours including jet black, fiery orange, acidic yellow, and forest green, scattered throughout the pale background like thoughts breaking through quietude. Thick, painterly textures dominate the surface. The paint is almost sculpted, making the canvas a physical object as much as a visual one. This adds emotional depth—you sense that each mark carries intention and presence.

This impasto painting is mounted a dark stained oak frame. The dark wooden frame again complements the painting beautifully—earthy and solid, grounding the delicate and expressive content within.

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.

Jars & Blue Plate
$652.00
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A vibrant mid-century still life captures a quiet, everyday arrangement of two earthenware jars, a cobalt-blue plate, and a few scattered lemons upon a sunlit tabletop, executed in oil onto canvas.

The artist’s confident use of impasto brushwork brings the scene to life – thick, textural strokes of paint that reveal the artist’s hand in every movement.

The palette is warm and expressive, balancing earthy yellows, terracottas, and muted greens with the striking contrast of the luminous blue plate that commands the centre of the composition. The interplay of these tones gives the piece both harmony and energy, while the textured surface adds a tactile, sculptural quality.

Painted in a distinctly modernist manner, the forms are simplified and the focus is placed on colour relationships and surface texture rather than precise realism. The work evokes the quiet beauty of domestic life, elevated through a painter’s expressive eye.

This oil on canvas is presented in a simple light wooden frame that complements its rustic aesthetic. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

Shared Moments
$560.00
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A beautifully atmospheric mid-century modernist oil painting depicting two figures in a quiet interior scene, executed in oil onto canvas.

One is seated at a table, leaning gently forward, while the other stands nearby, their forms simplified and softened, inviting the viewer into an intimate moment. Light floods in from a large window in the background, casting a pale blue glow that contrasts against the deeper, earthy tones of the room.

Rendered with expressive brushwork and impasto, the artist has used broad, confident strokes to build form and texture, giving the surface a tactile, almost sculptural quality. The muted greys, dusky mauves, and slate blues are gently warmed by accents of ochre and terracotta in the standing figure’s clothing, adding a subtle focal point to the composition.

The scene carries a sense of stillness and familiarity – a fleeting domestic moment captured through abstraction, where emotion is conveyed not through facial detail but through posture, colour harmony, and the soft diffusion of light.

This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary mid-century style frame with a softly textured, linen lined surface. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

Things Far and Near
$461.00
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

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

This painting showcases Durling’s hallmark abstract language—minimal yet emotionally charged, textured yet airy. It’s a small piece that feels quiet but confident, introspective and balanced, like a private rhythm unfolding in colour and texture.

As with much of Durling’s work, the surface is highly textured, with thick layers of paint that create a tactile, almost geological quality. The canvas feels worked, scraped, and layered, like time embedded in paint.

The background is dominated by a soft minty green and pale pink base, giving the work a calm and gentle tone. Accents of bold black, vibrant orange-red, buttery yellow, and bright white interrupt the softness in bursts.

Despite its abstraction, this piece feels personal and evocative. There’s a delicate tension between order and spontaneity, between soft space and strong marks.

This impasto painting is mounted a dark stained oak frame. The dark wooden frame is a perfect match for this kind of subtle abstraction. It provides a visual anchor without stealing any attention, and its rustic quality echoes the organic textures in the painting itself.

Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

Three Pears & A Cup
$566.00
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A quiet and contemplative still life that depicts a simple tabletop arrangement of three green pears and a small blue-grey cup, set against a softly textured background, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 2008.

The composition is minimalist, yet imbued with a gentle rhythm and balance: the curved organic forms of the pears play harmoniously against the cylindrical solidity of the vessel.

Rendered in a modern impressionist style, the artist employs loose, visible brushstrokes and layered applications of paint, creating a tactile surface that evokes both depth and light. The palette is composed of delicate shades of green, lemon, sky blue, and muted grey, conveying a serene and contemplative mood. The soft blending and impasto technique suggest a sensitivity to form and colour rather than strict realism, giving the work a quiet poetic presence.

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

Angel Marshes
$461.00
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

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

This painting showcases Durling’s signature abstract style—textured, atmospheric, and intuitively composed. It feels like a landscape in dream fragments, full of soft mystery and emotional undercurrents.

Thick, expressive brushstrokes dominate the surface. The impasto technique (built-up paint) adds a tactile richness, inviting you not just to see the painting, but to almost feel it.

Muted creams, cool greys, and powdery blues provide a soft base, broken by bold accents—a vivid orange shape, a lemon yellow, and patches of deep forest green. These pops of color create visual rhythm, like beats in a calm but layered melody.

This impasto painting is mounted a dark stained oak frame. The dark wooden frame adds earthiness and grounding to the otherwise ethereal composition. It contrasts beautifully with the soft light tones, allowing the painting’s subtle dynamism to stand out.

Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

Whispering White Walls
$994.00
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A quiet and introspective mid-century modernist 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.

The composition presents a serene cluster of whitewashed buildings, stacked and softened into an abstracted architectural rhythm. The forms are simplified into clean geometric blocks, evoking a quiet hillside village or sun-bleached Mediterranean town. Two slender, almost silhouetted figures stand near the foreground, adding a subtle human presence and a sense of scale without interrupting the overall stillness of the scene.

The palette is beautifully restrained – cool whites, soft dove greys, and muted sage undertones merge gently into one another, creating a dreamlike haze. The brushwork is smooth and deliberate, with broad, flat planes of colour that minimise detail and heighten the modernist feel. Shadows and edges are suggested rather than defined, allowing the forms to appear as if they are dissolving gently into the light.

The composition, with its quiet tonal variations and refined abstraction, captures an outstanding balance between calm minimalism and poetic atmosphere.

This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary frame with a layered profile consisting of a soft champagne-gold outer moulding, paired with an inner border in silver. The painting remains in lovely vintage condition, with some light areas of craquelure that do not detract from the overall presentation.

Fragments of a Day
$1,059.00
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A striking modernist work that presents a scene fragmented into angular planes and interlocking blocks of colour, evoking figures and structures emerging within an imagined landscape, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1972.

Though abstracted, one can sense the suggestion of human presence and architectural forms – perhaps a house, a figure, and surrounding terrain reduced to their essential geometric components.

Rendered in a modernist style, the composition is built from flat, faceted shapes that tessellate across the canvas, creating a rhythmic mosaic. The artist has employed a harmonious yet lively palette of muted peach, terracotta, sage green, browns, dusty pink, teal, and pale blues. These tones shift softly across the surface, creating subtle contrasts and spatial tension without harsh division.

The brushstrokes are controlled yet visible, giving texture to each block of colour while maintaining an overall crispness in form. Edges are softly defined, hinting at the hand of the painter beneath the structure of the geometry. The result is a composition that feels both architectural and lyrical – an exploration of form and colour that balances abstraction with a whisper of narrative.

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

Lemons & Avocados
$625.00
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A quietly sophisticated modernist still life painting that presents a simple yet striking arrangement of avocados and lemons resting upon a softly textured linen surface, executed in oil onto board and dated 1981.

The composition is understated but confident – the deep green of the avocados contrasts beautifully with the bright, citrus yellow of the lemons, creating a gentle rhythm across the surface.

Executed in a loose, painterly style, the brushstrokes are visible and intentional, lending a tactile quality to both fruit and cloth. The background is rendered in muted, layered tones of olive and slate green, applied in broad strokes that dissolve into abstraction, giving the foreground objects greater presence and weight.

The colour palette is restrained yet expressive – earthy avocados anchoring the composition, while the lemons provide a burst of light and warmth, subtly illuminating the off-white linen beneath them. There is a sense of quiet domestic elegance, a celebration of everyday forms through a modernist lens.

This oil on board is elegantly presented in a complementary gilt frame with an inner white border that highlights the composition beautifully. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, while the frame shows some age-related marks.

The Resting Muse
$1,967.00
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A brilliantly executed mid-century modernist figurative painting that presents a stylised nude form rendered in soft, interlocking shapes, executed onto canvas by Swedish painter Bengt Lundin (1924-2005) whose works have been exhibited at the National Museum in Stockholm, as well as Modern Art Museum in Sweden.

The figure reclines in an abstracted interior space, her body defined by bold blocks of colour rather than distinct outlines. The composition is reduced to essential forms, yet the posture conveys a quiet sensuality and repose.

The artist has used a palette of muted browns, taupe, and creams, contrasted with deep blue and olive-green accents that evoke both depth and intimacy. The patterned background, suggestive of foliage or textile design, enhances the rhythmic harmony of the piece.

The brushstrokes are confident and broad, with areas of visible texture and raw canvas left exposed, lending an immediacy and honesty to the work. Each shape feels intentionally placed, balancing figuration and abstraction.

A celebration of form and tone, this painting captures the essence of modernist restraint – expressive, structured, and deeply human.

This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary slim wood frame. Both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.

Summer Reading

Sold

SOLD.

A serene mid-century scene depicting two women seated beneath dappled trees on a sunlit lawn, absorbed in quiet leisure, executed in oil onto canvas.

The figures They sit on mint-green folding chairs, one reading while the other holds a small object in her hands – perhaps a flower or letter – suggesting a gentle intimacy and stillness in the moment. Beyond them, pastel-hued cottages with pitched roofs and sunlit façades peek through the trees, evoking the charm of a summer afternoon in a peaceful village garden.

The colour palette is rich – cool sage, olive, and moss greens intersect with muted stone greys and soft sky blues, creating a harmonious balance between earth and air. The sky is painted in a smooth gradient of pale blue, acting as a calm contrast to the dynamic, textured land below. Each stroke is deliberate and expressive, laid down with visible directionality, giving the impression of wind pushing across the hillsides.

Executed in a modernist-impressionist manner characteristic of mid-century Scandinavian painting, the artist has used broad, confident brushstrokes and a light, airy palette. The treatment of form is simplified yet expressive, focusing on the harmony of colour and light rather than detail.

Parasol Afternoon

Sold

SOLD

A charming and softly abstracted contemporary still life painting that captures a quiet outdoor moment beneath a wide parasol, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 2008.

A rounded umbrella dominates the left side of the composition, rendered in loose, hazy tones of cream, peach and lavender, its form outlined with gentle linear markings. To the right, a simple round table holds a jug and a teacup, their shapes stylised yet recognisable, evoking an unhurried afternoon scene.

Executed in a semi-abstract style, the painting blends figuration with atmospheric colour fields. The outlines are delicately sketched, allowing the objects to float between definition and suggestion, giving the work a poetic, dreamlike quality.

$560.00
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A vibrant and pleasant modernist landscape painting that captures a sweeping view of a coastal hillside descending into a tranquil sea, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1987.

A cluster of red-roofed houses are nestled amid rich greenery, their geometric forms punctuating the organic curves of the land. The artist has placed emphasis on the play between land and water, with the luminous greens of the sloping bluff set against the expansive calmness of the blue sea.

The work is painted in a distinctly mid-century modernist style, marked by simplified shapes and strong areas of flat, vibrant colour.

Quiet Pasture
$717.00
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A tranquil and refined mid-century modernist abstract landscape painted in oil onto canvas.

This painting distils a pastoral scene into its most essential forms – three geometric sheep resting within an expanse of green, beneath a horizon softened by the meeting of land, sea, and sky. Two abstracted tree forms rise in the distance, their masses built from diffused tones of moss, teal, and yellow.

The artist employs a restrained and harmonious palette — muted greens merging into turquoise blues – evoking both serenity and space. Broad, matte brushstrokes and delicate transitions of tone give the surface a meditative quietness, while subtle traces of underpainting and warm orange edges reveal the artist’s hand and the passage of time.

Balancing figuration and abstraction, the work speaks to the essence of landscape – not as a literal depiction, but as an emotional and atmospheric impression of stillness, solitude, and the beauty of open space.

Sunlit Passageway
$652.00
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A charming mid-century modernist painting that captures a quiet street scene bathed in soft Mediterranean light, executed in oil onto canvas.

A lone figure, dressed in muted tones and carrying a bundle on her head, walks along an empty terracotta-hued pathway that leads into a cluster of geometric buildings. The architecture – flat-roofed houses, arched entrances, and clean-lined terraces—suggests a southern European or North African village, rendered with a sense of calm order and stillness.

The artist has used a restrained palette of warm browns, sandy beiges, pale blues, and soft whites, punctuated by accents of terracotta red on window shutters and rooftops. Each surface is painted in flat planes of colour, with minimal blending, giving the work a faceted, almost mosaic-like quality. Shadows fall in structured blocks, enhancing the geometry of the scene.

Brushstrokes are confident and deliberate, favouring smooth, even applications of paint that maintain the clarity of form rather than expressive texture. There is a quiet rhythm to the composition – the repeating rooflines, the verticals of the distant buildings, and the solitary figure grounding the scene with a gentle narrative presence. The overall atmosphere is one of stillness, heat, and understated elegance – an ode to everyday life rendered through a modernist lens.

This oil on canvas is beautifully presented in a well-suited linen-lined wooden frame. The painting is in good vintage condition overall, with just a tiny area of paint loss on the right-hand side – on the second building in from the right by the windows. This small detail does not detract from the artwork’s overall charm.

A very atmospheric and expressive costal composition, painted onto canvas by British artist Nicky Knill Jones.

Forest Pathway

Sold

SOLD

A mid-century landscape painting that presents a serene woodland scene, where a narrow path leads the viewer deeper into a forest of tall, slender trees, executed in oil onto board and dated 1944.

The verticality of the tree trunks dominates the composition, drawing the eye upward while also suggesting stillness and permanence. The perspective of the pathway, receding into the distance, adds a sense of depth and quiet invitation.

Executed in a semi-abstract, modernist style, the work features bold, block-like brushstrokes that break the forest into planes of colour. The palette is earthy and natural, with muted greens, ochres, browns, and russets interwoven with touches of blue-grey sky peeking through the canopy. The interplay of angular strokes and softened edges creates a rhythmic harmony, typical of mid-century interpretations of nature.

The brushwork is deliberate yet painterly – broad, layered strokes overlap to form textures of bark, foliage, and dappled light, giving the scene both structure and atmosphere. There is a lyrical quality in the way light and shadow fall across the pathway, suggesting both movement and calm reflection.

This oil on board is presented in a complementary wood frame with a natural woodgrain texture as well as an inner cream border. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

Moonlit Silhouettes
$1,165.00
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

An introspective mid-century modernist 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 serene and poetic scene unfolds beneath a pale blue evening sky, where two simplified figures stand in quiet conversation beside a cluster of whitewashed buildings. Rendered in a distinctly modernist style, the composition is reduced to pure geometric forms – the gabled roofs forming clean angular shapes against a flat expanse of blue.

The colour palette is restrained and atmospheric: powder blue for the sky, soft off-white for the buildings, deep charcoal for the ground and rooftops, and a delicate touch of brighter blue in the garment of the standing figure. A pale circular moon hangs in the sky, adding a gentle sense of stillness and introspection.

Brushwork is intentionally minimal and smooth, favouring broad, even planes of colour with softened edges that blur very slightly, giving the piece a dreamlike quality. The figures are reduced to silhouettes – faceless, quietly present – allowing the viewer to project their own story into the scene.

This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary frame linen lined frame with a silver border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some scuffs.

Zennor Coastal
$981.00
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A brilliantly executed contemporary landscape composition, painted onto canvas by British artist Nicky Knill Jones.

The painting presents a sweeping view of the rugged Cornish coastline near Zennor, interpreted through a loose, expressive style. The artist uses a subdued, cool palette of soft greys, whites, muted greens, and hints of blue to evoke the windswept drama of this natural landscape.

Foreground brushstrokes suggest rocky outcrops and coastal vegetation, leading the eye toward a winding shoreline or inlet that curves through the midground. The hills and cliffs in the distance are rendered in hazy, blended tones that capture the atmospheric light and shifting weather typical of Cornwall.

A very atmospheric contemporary abstract composition, painted onto canvas by British artist Nicky Knill Jones.

The painting captures the serene, meditative quality of a wide, open coastal scene. Soft brushstrokes and a muted palette of pale blues, greys, and sandy beiges evoke the stillness of a tidal flat or beach at low tide, where sea and sky blend almost imperceptibly on the horizon.

The composition is horizontal and spacious, with distant, darkened headlands framing the scene and guiding the viewer’s eye gently toward the center. The foreground is rendered in translucent layers, suggesting wet sand and shallow pools reflecting the soft light above. There is a sense of vastness and calm, where time seems suspended.

A beautifully framed large landscape composition, painted onto canvas by British artist Nicky Knill Jones.

This painting portrays a striking coastal view of St Michael’s Mount in Cornwall.

Seated Woman with Letter
$1,178.00
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A large and brilliantly executed mid-century modernist style figurative painting, executed in oil onto canvas.

The composition presents a contemplative female figure seated on a simple chair, her body angled gently to the side as she holds a folded piece of paper in her hand. The faceless portrayal lends the work a universal quality, allowing the figure to embody both anonymity and intimacy.

The style is distinctly modernist and abstracted, with simplified forms, flat planes, and carefully balanced geometric blocks of colour. The composition is built on interlocking shapes, where body, chair, and background meld seamlessly, reinforcing the quiet harmony of the scene.

The palette is warm and earthy, with shades of terracotta, brown, and sienna set against muted peach, pale creams, and soft blues. Darker tones in the figure’s dress contrast with the lighter background, creating depth while maintaining the painting’s restrained, introspective mood.

Brushstrokes are broad and deliberate, with smooth transitions that emphasise form rather than detail. The painter resists naturalism, instead favouring abstraction and tonal rhythm to evoke atmosphere and feeling.

This oil on canvas is presented in a wood frame with a white inner border. The painting has some light marks to its surface but nothing that detracts from its overall attractiveness. The frame has some areas of paint loss as shown, but is otherwise in good stable condition.

Fields of Stillness (Set of 2)
$691.00
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

An elegant pair of mid-century landscapes that capture the quiet poetry of rural life through a minimalist modernist lens, and executed in oil onto canvas.

Both works feature sweeping compositions that draw the viewer into open countryside scenes – one depicting a farmhouse on a distant ridge under a wide, tranquil sky, and the other showing a meandering country road curving gently toward thatched cottages.

The artist’s style is distinctly modernist, characterised by bold, simplified forms and strong, rhythmic geometry within the land contours. The palette is a refined harmony of sage greens, browns, and teal-blue skies – colours that evoke both calm and structure. Thick, expressive brushstrokes convey texture and light with confident economy, allowing the paint itself to suggest the terrain’s movement and atmosphere.

Together, the pair exudes balance and quiet strength – timeless mid-century pieces that celebrate the stillness and spaciousness of the rural landscape while offering a refined decorative harmony.

These oil on canvases are presented in beautifully complementary mid-century style frames that enhance their serene, modernist quality. One in a soft silvered wood finish, and the other in a champagne-gold undertone finish. Both the paintings and frames are in excellent vintage condition.

Size of top artwork: 35.5 x 59 cm (including frame)

Garden Gathering
$592.00
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A lively mid-century modernist oil painting that presents a group of figures gathered in a semi-abstract outdoor scene, 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 arrangement suggests a social gathering – figures standing and seated together, framed by architecture on one side and lush garden foliage on the other.

Executed in a modernist style, the piece blends figuration with abstraction. Strongly simplified forms and flattened planes dominate, with outlines and shadow blocks creating sculptural presence. The absence of facial detail recalls both cubist reduction and expressionist distortion, allowing colour and rhythm to take precedence over narrative realism.

The palette is bold yet harmonious, with deep navy and forest greens offset by vibrant pinks, oranges, and sky blues. Light falls diagonally across the canvas, producing rich contrasts between shadowed areas and illuminated patches. The brushstrokes are broad, gestural, and confident, with layered pigment applied in sweeping movements that build both depth and dynamism.

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

Green Pears on Table
$987.00
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A charming and characterful still life composition executed in tempera on board in 1979, by the established Swedish artist Eric Cederberg (1897-1984), whose artworks have been represented in several public and museum collections across Sweden.

The painting presents a neat arrangement of five bright green pears – four whole and one sliced open to reveal its pale, almost translucent interior. The fruits are evenly spaced across a deep brown tabletop, their rounded forms casting bold, graphic shadows that anchor them to the surface. Scattered leaves add a touch of organic movement, their linear veins painted in stylised strokes.

The palette is wonderfully restrained yet vivid: fresh greens for the pears, muted earthy browns in the background, and stark black accents used for shadow and seed detail. The brushwork is clean and deliberate, with flat planes of colour and minimal blending, giving the piece a graphic, almost poster-like quality. Each pear is painted with a confident simplicity, allowing form and silhouette to take precedence over realism.

This still life celebrates simplicity and bold shape, making it a striking decorative piece with strong visual character.

This painting on board is presented in a complementary gilt frame with an inner cream border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some marks and paint loss as shown.

The Parade

Sold

SOLD

A vibrant modernist figurative composition that captures a jubilant procession winding through a lively town scene, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1969 in reverse.

A long line of figures, dressed in bright whites with touches of vivid red and orange, marches in rhythmic formation, creating a strong sense of movement and communal festivity. The crowd appears to weave through a landscape dotted with clustered houses and trees, with the architecture rendered in warm ochres and earthy reds against a soft blue-grey sky.

Painted in an expressive style, the work features thick, energetic brushstrokes that lend a tactile, almost sculptural quality to the surface. The artist applies paint in vigorous swirls and dashes, allowing the colours to intermingle directly on the canvas. Warm golds, muted greens, and slate blues dominate the palette, balanced by flashes of white that illuminate the procession like a ribbon threading through the landscape.

The overall impression is one of joyful chaos and human togetherness, captured with spontaneity and painterly confidence.

This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary wide profile frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.
