A gorgeously rustic mid century oil on board. This rural landscape scene features a panoramic composition, deep rich colouring, and lots of texture. A row of white cottages with black roofs are nestled amidst the rolling fields, and a long country road can be seen passing through the centre of the composition.
The painting is housed in a wood frame that has been painted black, which suits the painting perfectly. There is some general age wear to the picture and frame, but this does not detract from the attractiveness of the piece, and if anything adds to its rustic charm.

A large, bold and striking mid-century landscape view of a French river, executed in oil on board.
It is a fine day in Autumn, and figures can be seen strolling along the promenade by the river.

A fantastic modernist style portrait, painted in oil onto board. The artist has used smooth, distinct brushstrokes to compose the figure, leaving out realistic details and features. There is a sense of timeless-ness to this piece, where place, time and context are not present. One of the most attractive features of this piece is the way in which the artist has skilfully allowed the board to show through and has even incorporated it such that it adds to both depth and shade. We also get a sense of the ‘behind the scenes’ workings of the artist which certainly adds to the charm of the piece.
This oil on board is housed in its original champagne gilt frame with an inner fabric lined border which suits the painting beautifully and really makes it a stand out further. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

Painted in an impressionist manner, the artist has not only used a wonderful palette of varying shades of blues, whites and yellows to render this stunning composition; but has also used a combination of brushwork from long and sweeping strokes, to gentle and short strokes that pervade the painting with an air of calm and tranquility.
This oil on board is housed in its original mid century gilt frame with an inner wood and red lined border. The red on the frame picks up on the palette of the painting wonderfully. Both painting and frame are in good vintage condition.

An ambient and tranquil mid century abstract painting, executed in oil onto canvas. Rhythmic brushstrokes and subtle transitions in the layers of colour create a sense of ‘quiet’ within the picture.

A colourful and expressive mid century oil, painted onto canvas. The artist has made use of a set of simple jars as the subject of this still life, using a range of vivid colours and multidirectional brushwork to breathe life into this simple composition. A single green jar sits separately from the group, but this does not seem to distort the rhythm of the painting, which has a very well balanced, harmonious feel.
The painting is housed in a painted wooden slip. Both painting and frame are in good vintage condition.

A lively and endearing large mid 20th century oil portrait of 2 children seated side by side, against a striking red background.
Blocks of rich and saturated colours in contrasting shades fill the canvas, to give rise to the various forms. The artist has used several layers of colour, and has skilfully revealed these layers beneath to add depth, texture, and interest.
The artist has depicted just the silhouettes of the children, using bold outlines and distinct brushstrokes to create a portrait with a modernist ethos.
This oil on board is housed in a frame with a gilt front border and black edging. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some minor scuffs that don’t detract from the overall attractiveness of the painting.

SOLD.
An earthy, rustic picture of a rural landscape painted in oil onto board. The artist shows off his painterly technique, using broad, expressive, and textured brushwork to paint the rural landscape in all its glory. He has managed to capture the raw quality of the provincial scene through his use of colours, strokes and textures.
Our eyes are at first drawn to the cottage, but are then directed upwards to the sky and then to the green trees on the left. Finally we are left to rest on the lower section of the picture, where the artist has softened the palette and loosened the sections, creating an almost abstract composition.
The painting is housed in its original wide profile mid century frame, which is of as much character as the painting itself. It has a linen covered border and and inner gilt and wood window. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The gilt edging on the frame has some minor scuffing but otherwise the frame is in good and stable condition overall.

An outstanding mid century still life painting of pears, painted onto board. A group of 5 pears in varying colours, ranging from greens, to red-orange, to brown and white, are set against a striking blue glass plate. The painting has a distinct depth to it, as a result of the varying textures that the artist has used. Areas of thick impasto (where the paint is applied thickly enough to stand proud of the surface) are evident, and one of the pears has some form of aggregate applied that have created a thick mottled surface to the left pear.
The frame of the painting is a beauty in itself, and brings out all the textures and colours of the painting wonderfully. Both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.

Miniature paintings are often overlooked treasures. Their small size means they can fit into an array of small spaces, adding interest to nooks and crannies. They can be displayed on a bookshelf or kitchen shelf, either standing on a mini easel or leant against other objects/books. If added to a group display, these small pieces act as a wonderful contrast to bigger pieces, and can add ‘punctuation’ to the group hang.

An atmospheric mid century oil of a street scene at night time, painted in oil onto board.

A cathedral, though monumental in size, sits quietly under the midnight blue of the sky. The artist has painted in an expressionist style, using quick and distinct brushstrokes to paint in this richly coloured night time scene.
The painting is housed in its original mid century light wood frame which has a silver border, and an inner cream coloured slip. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has a few minor scuffs along its silver edging.

A skilfully executed mid century abstract painted in oil onto canvas.

A typically modernist mid century large abstract oil, painted onto board in 1960. The artist has created a completely abstract picture, playing with form, line, shape and colour. He has used a fairly restrained palette, working mostly in brown, black and white. This painting is very remiscnent of the works by British Modern St Ives artist Ben Nicholson, whose abstract drawings and paintings featured flat shapes and lines and an absence of ornament. Nicholson would also often use a razor blade to scrape back the paint so that the pictures look weather beaten and old, as if they have been eroded by time, much like the artist has done here in the white section of the painting, creating varied areas of both textured and flat surfaces.
The painting is housed in a simple but very well suited black slip. Both painting and frame are in good vintage condition.

A large and striking mid century still life, painted in oil in 1946. Rich saturated colours in deep tones fill the canvas, with pops of yellow, red and green that draw our attention in ever closer. There is a loose sense of time, with the shadows and darkened tones suggesting an evening light and the closing of the day. A couple of art catalogues sit casually next to a slender vase, beckoning us to take a seat and have a browse. A lone apple lays separately from its group, adding a bold lime green punctuation to the overall composition. Modernist elements are certainly present in this painting, with the artist cleverly using colours and shapes to create depth and a sense of space. Bold lines, distinct and painterly brush marks, and juxtaposing colours make this painting a statement picture.
This oil is housed in its original mid century robust and heavy champagne gilt frame in a distressed style. The painting is in very good vintage condition. The frame has some losses to the inner slip and some general wear (as shown in the photos), but we think this adds to the overall charm of the piece.

A striking and well executed still life in oil, painted in 1969. The artist has used an intense palette of dark colours as well as bold, expressionist brushstrokes to create this striking still life composition. The darker palette imbues the painting with an almost melancholic vibe, in many way reminiscent of the sombre colours, flattened spaces and overall mood of the paintings of French expressionist artist Bernard Buffet, who was also painting around this time.
This oil on board is housed in its original mid century frame , with a gilt outer birder and an inner linen lined window. Both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.
