  • A Country Walk

    Sold

    SOLD.

    An idyllic view of a country path curves to the left, obscuring our view of what lies just beyond the bend, tempting us to continue on in order to find out.

    This picturesque miniature reminds us of the natural simplicity and beauty of what a simple country walk can offer. Flower lined paths and rolling hills beyond –  such a small picture and yet so much captured within. Stamping its presence is a bold gilt frame, whose concave profile invite us to look closer and peer into the painting.

    This wonderful miniature oil is in excellent vintage condition.

    Painting Size: 7 x 7.5 cm

    Overall Size: 16 x 17 cm (including frame)

    Note: The photos used are not meant to be an accurate size representation of the artwork. Please check the dimensions before purchasing.

    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.

  • Scanian Landscape

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A delightful and energetic Scanian landscape painting, dated 1971.

    The warm and rich plethora of colours as well as textured and short brushstrokes used imbue the painting with liveliness and vitality; and as we scan our eyes across the painting from left to right, our eyes are treated to a feast with lots of detailing to take in and enjoy.

    It is a warm summer day with clouds floating in the clear blue sky, and ducks soaring in the air.

    A farmer in a tractor is depicted ploughing the fields, preparing the soil for seeding. We can also spot a cottage surrounded by trees and different well-grown agricultural crops. In the background, there is a row of trees lined up across the hills beyond.

    The painting is housed in a complementary brown frame. It comes in good vintage condition, but there are 2 pin holes visible on the left side of the painting.

    Size: 20 x 64 cm (including frame)

  • Cottage in the Meadow

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A scenic view of a cottage in the meadow, surrounded by tracts of grassland and hay fields.

    The joy and serenity of nature is widely celebrated in this artwork; and its lush landscape is so inviting, as one yearns to roam in the vastness of its glory, to connect with nature and reconnect with themselves.

    The artist has chosen to work primarily with 3 colours – green, brown and blue. Although it may seem limited, multiple shades from each colour have been used to bring the forms in this work to life. For example, we can spot lovely shades of pear green, pickle green, and seaweed green.

    What is equally interesting is that for each shade, there is a similar directional use of brushstrokes – making this landscape painting so unique.

    This artwork painted in 1945 is an oil on canvas, and is well presented in a brown wood frame, with a white mount that further accentuates its beauty.

    It is in excellent vintage condition.

    Size: 48 x 57 cm (including frame)

  • Pastel Nude

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    This large abstracted depiction of the female figure may seem simple at first glance, but as we spend the time to look at its forms, lines and colours, we soon realise its complexity. In some ways a reminder of the Nude Blue cut-outs series by Henri Matisse, the nude figure in this painting has been abstracted down to a group of shapes and colours. The artist has avoided any attempt to mimic reality and has instead used blocks of soft yet contrasting colours to create a sense of space and three dimensionality. Paint has been applied lightly and sparsely, allowing the raw canvas to show through.

    Painted by  in 1968, this wonderful oil is housed in a red and gilt wood frame with a linen slip, and is in excellent condition with some minor scuffs to the frame.

    Size: 71 x 59 cm (including frame)

  • Green Angles

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A typically modernist style oil on board painted in 1956. Geometric shapes, formal lines and rigid angles of the buildings and trees contrast with the softer, rounded lines of the pair of figure silhouettes  in the forefront. Compositional depth has been achieved through the contrast and layering of flat planes of colour, rather than through the use of perspective. This cubist landscape is reminiscent of modernist painters such as Picasso and Braque.

    Size:  47 x 44 cm (including frame)

  • The Forest

    Sold

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A lovely tiny but mighty landscape scene of a forest painted in an abstract style. The artwork depicts nature in all its glory- with tall pine trees growing in the background, streams of water flowing through land, and fallen leaves on the lush foreground.

    Despite its miniature size this artwork is vibrant and striking, and can certainly add life to any corner in a home.

    This oil on canvas board is uniquely framed – the painting is affixed to a linen lined backing with a wood frame, adding a three dimensional quality to the piece.

    Painting size: 17 x 21cm

    Overall Size: 30 x 33 cm (including frame)

  • Yonder

    Sold

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A picturesque and panoramic view of a rural landscape, complete with cows, mountains and a lake.  A patchwork of green and golden fields rolls towards the pink and blue mountain. The cool palette with which the artist has painted the mountains communicates its solid physical hardness against the softer, warmer colours of the fields. The way in which the landscape has been formed, with its planes of colours,  rich earthy palette and bold outlines is reminiscent of works by the modernist painter Cézanne.

    The painting is housed in a robust and deep wood frame that has been painted with a beautiful green tint. Both painting and frame are in good vintage condition. The frame has some scuffs to its edges, commensurate for its mid century age.

  • Effervescence

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An effervescent and diaphanous oil depicting white flowers in a clay pot.

    Areas of thick impasto create areas of texture and three dimensionality. In this very ‘open’ composition, there are no distinct forms – we cannot make out any specific detailing of the flowers and leaves. Freely brushed colours are used instead of lines and contours, portraying the overall visual effect of the floral arrangement, rather than realistic details. As our eyes move around the picture, we can also notice the fabric of the canvas showing through along the bottom section of the painting, adding to the general ethos of this as a painting rather than a realistic depiction of flowers.

  • The Climb

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An absolutely stunning oil depicting two figures walking through vast landscape. Scale here has been stretched to its utmost, with the human figures so small it is easy to miss them. The vast landscape is what fills most of this painting, reminding us humans of our position in the universe. We are but a speck. We feel a calming sense of awe when looking at this piece – its focus on nature emphasises its separateness and indifference to our humanly desires and concerns.

    This mid century painting is appropriately housed in a wide off white wood frame with gilt detailing. The painting is in excellent condition. The frame is very stable and in good condition overall but has some minor bumps (refer to photos), but these do not detract from the painting.

    Size: 52 x 60 cm (including frame)

  • Sailors

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A stunning miniature seascape with lots of details to appreciate. Within this tiny picture we have 6 boats amidst calm waters, including a very finely detailed three-masted sailing vessel with soldiers on board. The artist has taken great care to include many different elements, from birds, to different types of vessels, to subtle changes between sea and sky.

    The painting is housed within an ornately moulded, wide profile gilt frame.

    Painting Size: 18.5 x 24cm

    Overall Size: 30.5 x 35.5 cm (including frame)

  • By the Window

    Sold

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A well-executed and detailed oil on canvas of a vase of beautiful red flowers placed by a window pane.

    The artist gives us a glimpse of the cold winter’s day outside, as we see a snow-filled ground through the clear glass window.

    Very soft and painterly brushstrokes have been used to create a smooth and delicate effect to the work; yet the artist has skilfully managed to evoke a strong sense of three-dimensionality – from the drapes of the curtains, to the roundness of the vase, and curves of the leaves that have all been splendidly painted.

    This artwork is housed in a thin cherry wood frame that complements the piece really well.

    There is a straight vertical tear the right side of the painting (refer to photos) that has been closed with tape on the reverse (refer to photo). Otherwise the painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.

  • Mi Casa

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An outstanding expressionist painting presenting a well decorated interior setting.

    A wide array of warm and bold colours as well as short and lightly textured brushstrokes have been used to create this homely atmosphere.

    The artist has creatively depicted a myriad of detail in this artwork – from the paintings hanging on a wall beside a bookshelf in the background, potted plants set on a window pane that overlook a garden filled with autumnal coloured trees, and most strikingly, the table in the foreground where a sewing activity was taking place, and a piece of fabric held down by a unique duck shaped planter.

    The painting is housed in a complementary beige and brown frame. The painting is in good vintage condition, with a an area of surface paint loss. The rest of the paint area remains stable. The top left inner section of the frame also has a minor loss.

    Size: 80.5 x 69cm (including frame)

  • Paris

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An absolutely stunning miniature impressionist painting of a view in Paris, most probably Montmartre. This original oil carries such confidence within its small frame. The artist shows off his skill, contrasting strong and heavily impasto-ed areas of thick paint (achieved through the use of a palette knife) with areas of detail and softer brushwork. The artist has managed to perfectly capture the sunlight pouring over the roofs of the grand buildings, and the city streets below.

    Housed in a thin gilt and linen-lined frame, this miniature oil is in excellent vintage condition.

    Painting Size: 16 x 13 cm

    Overall Size: 20.5 x 17 cm (including frame)

  • Grandmother

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An endearing mid 20th century painting of an intimate and well-decorated home setting.

    An elderly lady sits on a small bench preparing food, as she waits for the pot to heat up in the large fire stove beside her.

    The plethora of colours used in this work is remarkable, as well as the intricate detailing of the objects lying around which include the flower pots by the window still, the white pitcher beyond the open door, as well as the pots and pans, and a colourful rug on the floor. The door that is ajar adds a sense of openness to this painting – we feel welcomed into the space, without feeling trapped or enclosed.

    It comes with a unique dark wood frame with evenly spaced divots, outlining the painting beautifully.

    The canvas appears to have been previously removed from a backing or stretchers and re-laid on to board, fixed down with staples. Puncture marks from the previous framing method are visible around the outer edges of the canvas, as shown. The painting itself is in excellent condition with no paint loss, and so is the frame that it is housed in.

  • Moroccan Tales

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A captivating and expressive mid 20th century oil painting presenting an everyday scene of a lively local town in Morocco.

    The sky is beaming blue, and it is a scorching hot day, as the sun’s strong rays have illuminated the colourful line up of buildings and stalls, and the pathway.

    A group of Moroccan men can be seen passing through. They are dressed in turbans and djillabas, which is a long outer robe and is one of the most popular forms of traditional Moroccan clothing. Donkeys, which are an integral part of Moroccan life, are featured in this painting, as a man is depicted riding on one as his main mode of transportation.

    Moroccans are known for their warmth, openness and sociability, and this painting so wonderfully captures the essence of their nature- the rich and warm array of colours used in this painting is so vibrant and welcoming, and are harmonised extremely well together; and the expressionistic brushstrokes used imbue the painting with much vigor and liveliness.

    This oil on canvas comes in a unique vintage grey wooden frame with a linen slip.

    Size: 63.5 x 74.5 cm (including frame)

  • The Harvest

    Sold

    SOLD

    A very finely executed modernist painting of 4 farmers in an open agricultural field, harvesting lush crops of wheat.

    The artist has confidently executed the work with bold and expressive brushstrokes, skilfully separating the sky, forest and field through different plains of earthy colours.

    The painting is framed in a unique and characterful wood and gilt frame with an inner maroon velvet lining. The grain of the wood frame has purposefully been left exposed under the gilt coating, adding a wonderful effect.

    Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    Size: 61x 71 cm (including frame)

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A tranquil landscape scene of a lakeside, painted in 1955.

    A figure has walked through the woods and is taking a moment to sit down by the edge of a lake. In front of him stretches an open lake – a peaceful, serene open view where he can be alone with his thoughts.

    The swift yet soft brushstrokes in this oil wonderfully captures this tender moment, reminding us of the power of nature in helping us to heal and recharge.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame with a linen lining. Both painting and frame are in excellent 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.

  • Ballerinas

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A delicate oil depicting two female figures warming up in their dance studio. The composition of the painting is wonderfully balanced, and its palette features soft tones and creamy textures.  The artist has refrained from painting in too much detail, focusing instead on the lines and forms of the figures and the bars behind them.

    The artwork and frame are both in excellent vintage condition.

    Size: 19.5 x 26 cm (including frame)

  • Pitchers

    Sold

    SOLD

    Through its exploration of lines and generating and defining of shapes such as the curve, circles, angles and arabesque, this painting picks up on the style and ideas of the Movement paintings of British St Ives School artist Sir Terry Frost, who explored concepts around creating rhythm, counterpoint, interruption and repetition.

    A wonderful visual vocabulary of bright primary colours, shapes, and movement transforms what would normally just be a group of mugs and pitchers, and has given them a life of their own.

    The magic in this is that the artist has taken ordinary objects, and has looked at them in a way that has removed all preconceived notions of visual experience in order to open up the possibility of recreating and reimagining that defies reality. There is an openness to serious play with colour and shape. This painting is simple and surprisingly subtle, but very satisfying to look at, and to enjoy.

    This lovely oil on board is in excellent vintage condition. The complementary frame as seen in the photos is included with the painting.

    Size: 36 x 36cm (including frame)

  • The Farmhouse

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    This post impressionistic painting is a fine example of the way in which an artist can celebrate the material properties of the medium of oil. Urgent, rough and bold brushstrokes are accentuated by thick, short, colourful, blocky bursts that add a sense of youthful energy. Here the artist has banished preconceived notions about object and colour from his or her mind (such as grass being just green), and has instead painted the colour hues and tones as seen in that particular moment in the natural light.

    The ruggedness of the landscape is almost mimicked by the way the artist has applied the paint, where you can almost see the bristles of the brush and the heavy-handedness in the application, giving the painting a visual palpability.

    The strong colours and brushwork are complemented by the robust greyish-green  mottled frame, within which the painting is housed. The painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition, with only very minor scuffing to the frame.

    Size: 54 x 72 cm (including frame)

  • In Bloom

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A beautiful and serene 20th century still life that displays a glimpse of a well-decorated home setting.

    Jasmines are depicted in full bloom and growing out from a copper flower pot that has been placed at a corner of a living room. The artist has skillfully captured the reflection of this pot cast against the flooring, as well as the shadows of the flowers that have been cast on the wall

    One is able to get a sense of the style of this home setting – as we see the light floral patterned curtains, and the colourful rug near it.

    The artist has used  fine and soft brushstrokes to create a smooth and delicate effect to the work; and the earthy colour palette gives a soothing feel.

    The painting is surrounded by a dark wooden frame with an inner gold window which suits it perfectly.

    It is in excellent vintage condition.

    Size: 65.5 x 56.5 cm (including frame)

  • Horses

    Sold

    RESERVED

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A stunning mid 20th century artwork of nature at its finest, painted in 1951. A pair of horses graze on grass amongst a vast open meadow.

    The soft yet precise brushstrokes and bright pastel colours create an air of peacefulness and serenity. Overall, the blocks of colours and brushstrokes in this work flow impeccably –  leading our eyes gently from foreground to the background where the open sea and blue sky lie beyond in the horizon.

    This oil on canvas is in very good vintage condition. There is a small surface scratch on the top edge of the frame which is only noticeable when viewed up close. The paintings is well presented in a complementary silver frame.

    Size: 62.5 x 73.5cm (including frame)

  • Demoiselle

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    One of the most elegant pieces in our collection yet, this beautiful oil depicts a collection of intricately painted objects on what is most likely a lady’s dresser. It is painted such that the viewer is herself sitting at this very table, just about to catch herself in the reflection of the mirror.

    A lady’s dresser is more than just a place to beautify oneself – it is a private space where she can take a moment to pause, reflect and unwind. Her collection of precious sentimental objects lay neatly before her, reminders of bygone days.

    The mirror in the painting captures the reflection of the objects on the table, but stops short at the point where we would see our own reflection – a seemingly simple yet rather effective angle chosen by the artist.

    Painted by Britt Bräckis Rosén, the oil painting is housed in a tasteful thin rounded gold frame. It is in excellent vintage condition with only some very minor scuffing to the frame.

    Size: 70 x 43 cm (including frame)

  • Prosper

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A beautiful and well-balanced still life that captured our hearts upon first sight.

    Presented atop a table draped with a cloth is a well-decorated pitcher filled with red tulips and pussy willows, surrounded by 7 oranges and a small green bowl.

    Very soft and precise brushstrokes have been used to create a delicate and realistic effect to the work, and there is calm fluency from one subject to the next.

    The artist has wonderfully managed to capture the creases and folds in the table cloth, and the great play of colours and reflective shadowy effects in the oranges and flowers create a sense of three dimensionality in the work.

    There is a strong focus of attention on the objects as its bold colours stand out in contrast to the background painted in beige with light pink undertones.

    The painting is in excellent vintage condition. It comes well-presented in a thick gilt frame that has areas of paint loss.

    Size: 73 x 64 cm (including frame)
