Still Life with Lute

Sold

SOLD.

A brilliantly executed mid-century still-life modernist composition dated 1959, painted by the listed artist Arnold Eres (1917-1986) who is represented in public collections in Sweden.

Reminiscent of the well-known post-impressionist painter Vincent Van Gogh, this piece by Eres is also characterised by bold, symbolic colours, and dramatic, impulsive and highly expressive brushwork. In this composition we see a lute by a vase of flowers. Broad brushstrokes and thickly applied paint make up this rich and textured painting which has so much to offer viewers. A wonderful detail worth noticing is the mosaic-tiled table that the vase sits upon, which plays off the colours of the background. The artist has also played with forms and shapes, creating a distinctive rhythm within the painting, such as where the bold lines in the vase are echoed in the strings of the lute.

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

Abundance

Sold

SOLD.

Free UK Shipping Only.

A vibrant and lively mid-century modernist-style landscape, executed in oil on canvas and dated 1957.

The composition sweeps across the canvas, presenting lush green fields dominating the foreground, while rolling hills and blue mountains stand in the background beneath a cloudy blue sky.

Semi-abstract in nature, all realistic details have been omitted and there is a strong focus on expressive brushstrokes and colour.

The artist has reduced the composition down to blocks of contrasting colours, as rich and saturated shades of greens and blues interplay dynamically, invoking a sense of depth and movement. Swift, expressive brushstrokes infuse the scene with energy, capturing the essence of the landscape in a captivatingly semi-abstract manner.

This oil on canvas is housed in a well-suited wood frame with an inner canvas lining. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has a scuff to its top edge (as shown in the close up photo) but this is not visible from the front and does not detract from its overall attractiveness.

Essence of Earth

Sold

SOLD.

A minimalist abstract composition that captivates with its simplicity and subtle complexity, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1970 on verso.

In the lower section, a solid block of forest green grounds the composition, representing the earth. A faint black line hovers above, suggestive of a horizon. Above this line, a serene block of cream fills the top half of the canvas, evoking a vast expanse of sky. At the pinnacle, a luminous white circle glows softly, reminiscent of a sun.

While abstract in nature, the painting subtly suggests a landscape bathed in the light of a radiant sun. Its minimalistic composition and gradients echo the emotive resonance often found in the works of American abstract painter Mark Rothko (1903-1970), inviting viewers to contemplate the interplay of light, space, and colour.

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

Jug & Fruits

Sold

SOLD.

A visually striking geometric abstract mid-century still life composition, executed in oil onto board.

The painting features a jug and some fruits placed across a red surface, and set against a dark muted green backdrop.

Drawing inspiration from elements of cubism and geometric abstraction, the artist has masterfully deconstructed and fragmented the scene down to distinct blocks of contrasting colours and bold outlines that interact with one another. Each respective shape seems to occupy its own distinct space, yet together they form a cohesive and harmonious whole.

The use of contrasting rich shades highlights the three-dimensional qualities of each object, whilst simultaneously emphasising the two-dimensional flatness of the board.

Furthermore, the expressive and distinct brushstrokes add a beautiful textural quality to the painting.

This oil on board is housed in a stunning wide-profile frame that further elevates the painting. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has minor paint losses but this suits its overall vintage look.

Patched

Sold

SOLD.

A large and very striking mid century modernist abstract composition in oil, painted onto canvas around the 1960s.

The painting is full of textural detail, as the artist has added an aggregate to certain areas (possibly sand or bitumen), creating a gritty and three dimensional effect in those areas. In other areas, large swathes of smooth creamy paint have been applied, in a restricted colour palette. The artist has worked in deep, rich tones and has used a myriad of curved forms to create the composition. There appears to be two figures, with one perhaps embracing another. However, the artist has chosen to focus on the formal elements of the picture such as shape, form and line, resulting in this largely abstract picture.

This oil on canvas is presented in a very well suited gilt frame. The painting has some light craquelure to the areas of impasto but the paint layer is very stable as shown in the close photos. It is in very good vintage condition overall.

Size: 82 x 71cm (including frame)

Sold

SOLD.

A brilliantly executed semi-abstract city landscape oil composition, painted in 1959 by the established Swedish artist Ivar Morsing (1919-2009), whose works have been exhibited in public collections including the National Museum in Stockholm, Moderna Museet in Stockholm, Kalmar Museum, and Jönköping Museum.

In the foreground, 3 figures are presented strolling through lush greenery, with a backdrop of a cityscape behind them.

Painted in a semi-abstract style, the artist has reduced the composition down to blocks of contrasting colours, and the deliberate omission of realistic details encourages viewers to focus on the overall atmospheric ambiance, as well as on brushstroke and colour.

The artist has used expressive and sweeping strokes of varying lengths, evoking a sense of movement and dynamism within the static setting. The dominant use of rich brown and green shades in various intensities creates a warm and earthy atmosphere, and the contrasting tones help to create depth and three-dimensionality.

This oil on board is housed in a well-suited gilt frame with black edging, which really illuminates the painting. The painting is in very good vintage condition. The frame has scuffs and paint losses.

Light on the Farm

Sold

SOLD.

A beautifully ambient modernist landscape composition, painted in oil onto canvas and dated 1974.

In this scene, a wonderful evening light settles on the fam house, creating a soft glow through the picture. The artist has captured the qualities of the light so effectively, using short expressive brushstrokes that lend texture and depth to the painting. The transition of colours in the painting is gentle and soothing – from the soft blue sky, to rustic colours of the farmhouse which are then echoed in the grassy ground below with its highlights of yellow.

The painting is housed in an equally gorgeous deep profile gilt and linen frame which almost illuminates the painting from within. The painting is in very good vintage condition. The frame has some scuffs to the edges and some toning to the linen border.

Nude at Midnight

Sold

SOLD.

An emotive and brilliantly executed mid-century nude figurative composition, painted in oil onto canvas.

A female figure commands attention at the center stage. Seated gracefully upon a blue platform with her knees drawn up and with one hand gently resting on her knee, she turns slightly to the side, her pose suggesting both poise and introspection.

Set against a backdrop of blocks of dark blue and charcoal grey, the figure emerges and her naturalistic tones accentuate her presence and create a striking contrast against the somber backdrop.

The artist has intentionally left out realistic details, and there is a strong focus on rich colours and expressive brushstrokes to enhance the emotional resonance of the painting.

The brushstrokes, textured and expressive, imbue the composition with a tactile quality and adds character to the piece overall.

This oil on canvas is housed in a stunning champagne frame. The painting has scattered craquelure present commensurate with its age, but the paint layer is stable overall.

His works are also included in the collections of Lyndon Johnson, Jimmy Carter, and the Tessin Institute in Paris.

With its almost mosaic-like effect and an illustrative quality, this playful composition features bright colours and lots of detail – a very recognisable style within Vallman’s oeuvre. The artist plays with patterns and outlines in this bustling scene of people at a dining banquet, with a striking green ceiling with chandeliers above them.

The painting is very lively and uplifting, and has wonderful areas of texture where the artist has used thick dollops of paint in an impasto technique.

A wooden desk takes centre stage, its surface filled with an array of everyday objects. A bowl is placed alongside a mug and a draping cloth, hinting that someone has just departed, leaving behind traces of their presence. The chair pulled slightly from the desk suggests the person’s recent departure, while a small book rests upon its seat.

The colour palette is inviting, with shades of warm brown, mustard yellow, and muted red dominating the scene. These earthy tones infuse the space with a sense of homeliness, warmth and nostalgia, evoking a timeless charm.

Cat on a Couch

Sold

SOLD.

A delightful and very cleverly painted composition in oil, painted onto canvas.

Simple but very effective in its composition, we see an interior scene of a cat curled up on a striped couch. The colours of the couch and background are pastel and gentle, thus focussing our attention on the red pillow and black and white cat. The artist has applied the paint in broad and gestural strokes, and in certain areas we see impasto where the paint has been applied thickly and stands proud from the surface. The cat has been very cleverly painted in a few simple strokes of thick creamy paint.

For anyone who owns (or has owned) a cat, this painting would be such a lovely and poignant addition to an interior.

This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary slim wood frame. The painting has scattered craquelure as shown in the close ups but the paint layer is stable overall.

Executed in an expressive manner, the composition depicts a home interior setting of a room adorned with an array of home furnishing, and an open window with a view outside.

The masterful use of the impasto technique adds depth and dimension to the painting as well as a textile quality. Each textured and forceful stroke is imbued with a palpable sense of movement and emotion, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in the scene.

A brilliantly executed and characterful mid-century still life in oil, painted by the established Swedish artist Eric Cederberg (1897-1984), whose artworks have been represented in several public and museum collections across Sweden.

Thick swirls of creamy paint form the background of the top half of the composition, and then below this we have a darker brown area with outlines in thick strokes that mimic the appearance of wood grain.
