  • Conspiracy

    Sold

    SOLD.

    An incredibly well executed semi abstract modernist oil composition, painted in 1967 by the established artist Ivar Morsing.

    This painting depicts what appears to be a group of figures huddled together. Although merged into one unified form, we can still make out some of the individual features of the figures. The painting has an exceptionally emotive effect (typical of Morsing’s style), alluding to hush whispers and murmurs emanating from the group. The rounded figures seem to pulsate from the surface, their curved forms intertwining, weaving in and out from each other.

    The painting is housed in a black floater frame that suits it very well. The painting is in good vintage condition. The edges of the board have been taped (as shown in close ups), some of which has some wear. The frame is in good vintage condition.

  • Holding Together

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A stunning abstract composition in oil, painted by British artist Marian Hyland. The painting is housed in a handmade frame (by the artist) which has been crafted specifically for the painting that sits within it.

    Marian’s practice centres around the relationships of space, shape and colour, created by the interplay between drawing, painting and collage.

    In this piece, the process of mark making and layering, informed by observations of natural environmental processes (e.g. textures and marks left behind through decay/neglect, industrial architecture/landscapes and random associations of objects and surfaces) are important factors in the work.

    Her paintings evolve intuitively to find rather than make the work. She continues to build up and simplify until the composition settles cohesively.

    Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

    Size: 35.5 x 35.5 cm (including frame)

    This painting matches perfectly with another piece by the same artist, which you can view here.

  • Houses by the Sea

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A peaceful and very atmospheric modernist coastal landscape, executed in oil onto canvas.

    In this picturesque composition, a winding road lined with houses surround costal cliffs and an ocean that leads to the horizon.

    This painting is very balanced with a mix of moody darker shades used to paint the cliffs, houses and land area, contrasting against paler lighter colours of the sky, sea and road. We could perhaps infer that it is early in the morning, before the sun has risen fully.

    Gentle painterly brushstrokes have been applied to create this modernist composition, and it wonderfully captures the quietude and serenity of nature.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a stunning wooden frame with an inner silver window. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Houses in the Woods

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A brilliantly executed typically modernist mid-century composition, painted in oil onto board.

    The painting depicts a row of houses surrounded by trees in the woods. The artist has abstracted this scene down to flattened angular shapes that have almost been arranged on the board like a puzzle. 

    A highly contrasting colour palette has been used – with dark and moody tones of browns and greens used to depict the woods, and lighter shades of cream used to depict the houses. The striking contrast in colour not only helps to create depth to the painting, but is also a powerful way to bring our attention to the focal point (the houses). 

    The painting is housed in a well suited dark wood frame with an inner gilt and linen window. Both artwork and frame are in excellent vintage condition. Please note that there is some glare to the photos (particularly to the right side) due to the dark palette of the painting. There is no fading to the painting.

  • Landscape in Colour

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A striking and vivid mid century abstract modernist oil composition, painted in 1948.

The composition features an array of different brushwork, from short and repeated patters to long wavy lines, bold angular lines as well as flat plane shapes. Using a bold and lively colour palette,  this painting would add a pop of colour and provide a myriad of interesting details to liven up any interior space.

    The painting is housed in a gilt frame which complements it well. Both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.

  • Moulin Rouge

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A charming modernist street scene composition, executed in oil on canvas.

    The painting depicts a night scene of a bustling promenade teeming with people outside the iconic Moulin Rouge in Paris.

    Realistic details of the figures have been intentionally left out, and the artist has portrayed just their slender silhouettes, as well as wonderfully captured the reflection of the figures and the colourful buildings cast against the side walk.

    An array of bright colours have been used, thoughtfully conveying the lively atmosphere and mood of the scene.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a dark blue floater frame that slightly exposes the sides of the canvas. There is an area of paint loss (as shown in the images), but the painting is otherwise in good vintage condition.

  • Over the Fields

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A large and textured mid century modernist landscape composition in oil, painted onto canvas.

    Expressionist and yet very detailed, textured brushwork creates the wonderfully balanced composition of a long farmhouse within a rural landscape. The farmhouse sits surrounded by fields and woodland, and the artist has used a very rich, earthy palette to create this composition. The textured way in which the paint has been applied conveys the rustic feel of the natural landscape.  The long composition gives us a sense of the expansiveness of this rural scene.

    This large painting is housed in its original mid century frame, which has a beautiful woven border. The painting is in very good vintage condition. The frame has a small nick to the top edge (as seen in the close up photo), but this does not detract from the overall appearance of the frame which is otherwise in good condition.

    This oil on board is housed in a deep profile ornate gilt frame that complements the painting very well. Both painting and frame are in good vintage condition.

  • Reflective Still Life

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A brilliantly executed mid-century modernist still life composition, executed in oil onto canvas.

    A group of objects including a wine bottle, a pitcher and a tray are placed by the corner of a window sill, and we are also presented with a glimpse of a view of the surrounding houses outside.

    The artist has skilfully managed to capture stillness in this painting, providing us (the viewer) an opportunity to observe intricate details such as the shadows cast from the tray and pitcher, as well as reflection of the green wine bottle against the side surface.

    A subdued colour palette including light shades of green, yellow and blue have been used, instilling calm in this painting. And the respective objects are defined by thin black outlines, drawing our attention to their individual shapes and forms.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary light wood frame. There is very light craquelure and some very minor areas of paint loss which are only visible upon very close inspection, and do not at all detract from the overall attractiveness of the piece. The paint layer is stable overall. The frame has some age wear too, commensurate with age.

  • The Mill

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A large and striking modernist mid century oil on board, painting in 1945.

    In this painting, short and expressive brushstrokes have been applied in vivid and distinct colours. The artist has used a series of horizontal strokes in a layering of colour to create a sense of depth of space.  The panoramic city landscape beyond and the greener landscape to the foreground have been reduced down to short dabs of bold colours that create a beautiful sense of movement within the picture. There is a wonderful sense that the artist is very fond of the landscape he has depicted.

    This painting is also carries elements of the fauvist style of separating colour from its descriptive, representational purpose and allowing it to exist on the canvas as an independent element.

    This painting is housed in its original mid century linen lined frame. There is some general ageing to the frame that is commensurate with age, and also in keeping with its overall look. The painting is in good vintage condition.
