  • Blue Ballerinas

    £1,175

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An outstanding mid-century figurative composition, 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 painting captures a scene of two ballerinas in striking blue tutus and ballet shoes, surrounded by an abstract background. On the ballerinas, the artist’s brushstrokes are gentle and soft, reflecting a careful attention to detail. Intentionally working with a limited colour palette, the artist has reduced the area around the ballerinas to angular planes in different gradients of brown. The layout of flat shapes and planes are typical of Lundqvist’s style.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary gilt frame with an inner cream border. The painting has a light surface mark at its lower central area of painting (as shown), but the painting is overall in good vintage condition. There is a small nick to inner border of the frame, as shown.

    Size:  55 x 47 cm (including frame)

  • In the Shadows

    £750

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An outstanding mid-century abstract figurative painting, executed in oil onto board.

    A figure standing in an interior setting, with one hand resting on a raised platform, punctuates the center of the composition.

    The figure, depicted in a fleeting silhouette, stands in the shadows, revealing only half of its form. Abstract in nature, all realistic details are deliberately omitted, allowing the viewer to focus on the expressive and powerful brushwork, as well as the rich and limited colour palette that evokes a sense of mystery and introspection.

    This masterpiece is a dance of contrasts, where the interplay of light and dark takes center stage and helps to demonstrate depth and balance to the painting.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame that illuminates the painting. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has very minor scuffing, in keeping with its overall vintage style.

    Size:  39 x 30 cm (including frame)

  • Altea

    £530

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A brilliantly executed semi-abstract mid century modernist 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 this composition we can see two figures, each sitting on a donkey. There is an inscription on the reverse which locates the scene to Altea, in Spain. Morsing has abstracted the figures and animals, using a restrained palette of black, green, yellow and white, and omitting all realistic detail. Instead, multi-directional brushstrokes come together carefully and in  a very considered manner to create the forms we see.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame with red undertones. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has losses and marks to its edges as shown.

  • Conjuring Blue

    £300

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A small but powerful abstract composition by British contemporary artist Lloyd Durling, painted in oil onto linen panel. Signed, titled and dated on reverse.

    Central to this painting is an intense engagement with oil on linen that explore the interface between painting, drawing and collage. There is a balance between expressive play and tight control and with this comes an expanse of associations that push beyond simple categorisations of abstraction or scale. The information in each painting, given by gesture or mark, is reduced to a fleeting register on the surface, as if each mark has to count. 

    The idea of topography is of central importance and is explored through continuing walking projects. These serve as opportunities to gather diverse source material through physical and emotional interactions with whichever environment chosen to traverse. It amounts to a kind of urban and rural wandering where the information gathered is reinterpreted or reimagined feeding into a deep connection with landscape, arrangements of ancient monuments, light, shadow and forgotten histories – all of these elements find a way into the work.

    Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

  • Fauvist Field

    £455

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A bright and vividly coloured mid century landscape composition, executed in oil onto board and dated 1963.

    Characterised by strong colours and fierce brushwork, this painting carries many elements of the ‘Fauvist’ style. Here we have bold, non-naturalistic colours, and wild loose dabs of paint which add a sense of abstraction to the landscape scene.  As we take in the scene, our eyes dance across the surface, following the different movements and colours that the artist has applied the canvas. There is a spontaneity to the brushwork that gives this painting its dynamic and lively quality.

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

  • Home Studio

    £495

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An expressive and brilliantly detailed mid-century composition of an interior setting, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The setting takes place in a wonderfully ‘lived-in’ home studio, with an interesting array of objects, furniture and artist tools depicted within picture. Painted in an expressionist manner, the artist’s brushstrokes are short and swift, lending an energetic and spontaneous quality to the piece. The loose style of painting further emphasises the immediacy of the moment captured. Although no one is present in the scene, there is a sense the artist has only just left and will return shortly – his or her palette is still visible with paint on, a pot of brushstrokes on the table behind, and a chair immediately in the front of the table.  On the left, we also get a glimpse of a view outside the studio.

    The artist has used a rich and uplifting colour palette, adding a lively feel to the work. Each object is represented with a spectrum of colours, enhancing their three-dimensional forms and inviting the viewer to explore their detail.

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

    In this scenic view, a cottage nests in the middle of a lush forest surrounded by trees with autumnal coloured leaves. Loose and unrestrained brushstrokes fill the painting with swathes and dabs of rich colours, leaving a wonderful textural quality as well as an energetic feel to the painting.

    This oil on board is housed in a beautiful wide-profiled grey and gilt frame with multiple windows, that really enhances the overall painting. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and there is light wear to the frame, commensurate with its age.

    Flux

    £470

    Available

    Free UK, Europe & Singapore shipping.

    A wonderfully rhythmic mid century abstract composition, painted onto board.

    We get a distinct sense that the artist is painting a visual manifestation of a type of movement or motion. The artist has eliminated all naturalistic forms, concentrating instead on the trajectory and direction of the movements. The painting has a limited palette of white, black, grey and green, putting a stark emphasis on the synthesis that the artist achieves with the looped, flowing and intertwined curves. He is perhaps suggesting the passage of time as well as movement in space.

    This acrylic on board is housed in its original silver frame with red undertones. There are minor stains on the top left on the painting, but the piece is in very good vintage condition overall. There are minor scuffs to the frame.

  • Rider on the Road

    £550

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A richly coloured mid century modernist style composition, executed in oil onto canvas by the established Swedish artist Stig Wernheden (1921-1997), whose works have been represented at public collections in Sweden including the Moderna Museet, Malmö Museum, Snuff & Match Museum, Ystad Art Museum and Malmö City Hall.

    In this scene we see the back of a figure on a donkey, walking towards a town in the distance. Lush greenery and verges on either side frame the composition, leading our eyes inwards towards the figure.

    The painting features wonderful pops of colour, including bright blue and orange. The artist has worked in a modernist style, using formal elements such as shapes and contrasting colours to create depth within the composition. The artist’s adeptness with his medium is evident in his clever use of colours and forms, and in the way he has achieved such balance in the composition.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a well-suited black and gilt frame with inner linen border. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Green Sails

    £455

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A brilliantly executed mid century modernist seascape composition, executed in oil onto canvas.

    Distinctively modernist in style, the artist here has played with shape, form and colour to build up this composition of boats in a port. The long repetitive lines of the masts juxtapose against the rectangular and circular shapes on the boats, as well as the triangular shapes of the sails. These distinct shapes then contrast again with the more fluid forms of the reflection in the water. The artist applies broader, and more expressive strokes to the area of reflection, whereas the top half of the composition is more controlled and form focused.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary slim gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some scuffs as shown in close ups.

  • Summer Park

    £545

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A brilliantly executed semi-abstract modernist oil composition, painted 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.

    The composition of the painting draws our attention to two figures seated on a bench amidst lush greenery. The artist’s deliberate omission of detailed features encourages viewers to focus on the overall atmospheric ambiance.

    Painted in a semi-abstract style, there is a strong focus on expressive brushstrokes, as well as rich colours. The use of painterly and dynamic brushstrokes create a sense of movement throughout the painting, and the clever use of a limited colour palette dominated by various shades of greens and browns and blue helps to unify the composition and emphasise the beauty of the natural surroundings.

    This oil on board  is housed in a complementary gilt frame with an inner cream window. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some light marks.

  • Helene

    £475

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A brilliant modernist-style figurative painting of a nude, executed in oil and dated 1961.

    The composition captures a standing nude within a minimalist interior setting. Placed against lightly-coloured walls, the absence of extraneous details draws attention to the portrayal of the subject.

    The standing figure, bathed in muted and naturalistic tones, emanates a quiet elegance. The colour palette, delicately chosen, imparts a softness to the painting, creating an atmosphere of subtle intimacy.

    The artist employs expressive and distinct brushstrokes with confidence, skillfully rendering the three-dimensional qualities of the standing nude. The use of varying shades within each brushstroke highlights the contours of her form, allowing the viewer to appreciate the subtle interplay of light and shadow. Furthermore, the artist’s deliberate omission of her facial features directs our focus to her graceful form.

    This oil on canvas has been laid onto board, is housed in a complementary frame with a hessian lined outer border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some minor scuffing to its inner window.

    A poignant and atmospheric mid-century cityscape composition, executed in oil onto canvas.

    In the foreground, a group of figures stand together, with their backs turned to the viewer as they gaze towards distant buildings. Semi-abstract in nature, realistic details have been deliberately omitted, allowing the viewer to focus on the emotional resonance of the scene.

    Using a limited and moody palette dominated by dark blues, with subtle undertones of brown and hints of light yellow, the artist displays his mastery of colours by skillfully layering the respective shades to create a textured finish, adding depth to the overall composition.

    The cityscape in the distance is shrouded in mystery and the overall atmosphere is hauntingly beautiful, evoking a sense of melancholia.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary dark blue frame with an inner gilt window. There is a small area of paint loss to one of the figures, as shown in the photos and close ups. But it is not immediately noticeable due to the style of the piece. The frame has some light marks.

  • Lime & Shadow

    Sold

    SOLD.

    An invigorating and dynamic mid-century abstract expressionist painting that focuses on a confident interplay of colours and expressive brushwork.

    Thoughtfully selecting a colour palette of white, black, brown, and striking lime green, the artist displays his painterly skills as the respective shades layer, intertwine, and overlap one another, creating a captivating visual experience.

    The brushstrokes in the painting are expressive and textured, adding a raw and tactile quality. The artist’s gestural approach to the brushwork adds a sense of movement and fluidity to the composition.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a well-suited  wood frame with an inner gilt window. The painting has some scattered areas of craquelure due to the thickness of the paint, but the paint layer is stable overall.

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A vibrant and lively mid-century narrative painting, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The painting is filled with rich and uplifting colours.

    What makes this painting truly unique is the extension of the painted frame, seamlessly blending with the scene. The frame becomes an integral part of the composition, extending beyond the canvas to create a sense of continuity, and adds an extra layer of dimension to the artwork.

    Trellis

    £350

    Sold

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking mid century modernist abstract composition, painted in oil onto board.

    In the centre of the composition we see thickly applied layers of paint and this area of impasto in grey and rust brown creates an initial focal point. The composition has a grid like effect, with layers of paint contrasting against each other in a myriad of ways. The crossed angles in which the paint has been applied create a distinct sense of depth to the painting, drawing our eyes further and further inward to discover the various layers. The lighter colours sit underneath the darker, earthier colours, giving it a luminous effect.

    Although the picture does not depict anything identifiable, it is very expressive and emotional in its effect,  created both through the colour palette as well as the gestural way in which the paint has been applied.

    The painting is housed in a dark wood frame with a linen lined border.  There are some age spots on the top left of the painting, but it is overall in good vintage condition. There are minor scuffs to the frame, commensurate with its age.

  • Pink Flowers

    £875

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very confident and well-executed modernist still life composition, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1976.

    The composition presents an interior setting where a vase with pink flowers and a jug sit on a table, and are set against a blue-tiled backdrop.

    Through the use of powerful, expressive, and intense brushstrokes as well as dark outlines, the painting expresses the rich emotions of the artist, and the style of the painting is reminiscent of the post-war French expressionist artist Bernard Buffet (1928-1999), who was also painting around this time.

    The artist has also used the sgraffito technique, using the back of his paintbrush to create lines through the paint layer of the pink flowers, adding a sense of three-dimensionality and varied texture.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary wide profile gilt frame . The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some scuffs, but this is in keeping with its vintage style.

    An emotive and visually captivating abstract figurative painting, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1973.

    Small yet impactful, a standing abstracted figure punctuates the center of the composition. The figure is skilfully defined with subtle black outlines that emphasize its silhouette. The use of these outlines adds a sense of distinction to the composition.

    The figure stands boldly against a backdrop of muted greys and blues, which has been executed with broad and expressive brushstrokes. These brushstrokes convey a sense of movement and emotion, and the limited and somber palette of greys and blues evokes a sense of melancholia.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a slim silver frame which complements the painting very well. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some minor scuffs.

    Size: 37 x 29 cm (including frame)

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A rich and captivating mid-century abstract painting, executed in oil onto canvas by Swedish painter Hans Osswald (1919-1983), whose works have been exhibited at the National Museum in Stockholm, Malmö Museum as well as The Brooklyn Museum.

    Created with a masterful technique, the artist has skillfully applied broad brushstrokes as well as layers of paint to build up a raised texture and dimension, adding depth and dynamism to the work.

    Warm earthy tones of predominantly shades of brown, orange, and yellow fill the canvas. These colours infuse the artwork with a sense of vitality, evoking the vibrancy of autumn foliage. There are also touches of white, black, and blue that have been strategically revealed to add a sense of balance and to emphasise the surrounding colours. The artist’s bold and confident use of all these hues reinforces the painting’s abstract nature and creates a visual feast for the eyes.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a well-suited gilt frame. The painting has scattered areas of light craquelure present, most notably in the upper dark brown section, but the paint layer is overall very stable.

    Size: 32 x 58.5 cm (including frame)

  • Painterly Portrait

    £650

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very striking and emotive mid-century figurative portrait, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The painting portrays a silhouette of a solitary figure, bathed in a luminous yellow hue. The figure stands boldly against a profound dark backdrop infused with subtle yet striking hints of blue, red, and white. These background shades evoke a sense of mystery and depth, lending an air of ambiguity to the composition.

    Painted in an abstract manner, all realistic details including facial features have been purposefully omitted, and the artist has used the power of brushstroke and colour to highlight emotion.

    What’s most striking is the masterful use of highly expressive and painterly brushstrokes, that have been executed with vigour and confidence, adding a sense of dynamism to the piece.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a stunning wood frame with visible grains. The painting has very minor paint losses to its edges, but the overall paint layer is stable. The frame is in very good vintage condition.

    Size: 53 x 44 cm (including frame)
