A simply calm and charming still life.
Laid out on a tabletop is a yellow earthen clay water jug, a copper kettle, a glass water bottle, 3 fruits, a slice of bread, and a teacup filled with tea and placed on a saucer.
Fine and detailed brushstrokes have been used to paint the objects so meticulously; and despite being laid out so smoothly on the canvas, one is still able to get a sense of the roundness and three dimensionality of the objects.
The objects are placed against a monochrome grey background that further enhances their colours, allowing it to stand out more.
The painting is housed in a robust frame, and is in excellent vintage condition. There are scattered areas of paint loss to the edges of the frame, but the uniformity of the losses have made us think this could be intentional, giving the frame that vintage ‘distressed’ effect.

A richly coloured, striking oil painting of red blooms (possibly Lilies or Amaryllis – let us know if you know which!) in a glass vase. The combination of ultramarine blue of the fabric, the carmine red of the flowers and the emerald green of the stems and leaves create a striking picture. Areas of impasto (where the thick paint stands proud on the surface) add wonderful texture to this painting.
The painting is housed in a lovely nude wood frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

An expressive still life depicting 2 pears, a wooden spatula, and a Delft blue plate laid out on a tabletop.
The artist has skilfully captured the three-dimensionality of the objects through the use of bold and distinct brushstrokes using the impasto technique.
The overflowing use of colours as well as texture imbues this little painting with so much character and vigour – that it makes the objects come to live, and seem as if they are having a blast at their own little party together.
The painting is housed in a new box frame that is painted white.

An excellent composition of a nude study in gouache, depicting a female figure perched on a stool. There is a palpable tension within this picture. With her legs raised, the muse grips the rear legs of the stool, balancing her slender figure on the equally slender wooden stool. The simplicity of this picture is very effective – clean lines and a limited colour palette lend themselves well to this very visually pleasing composition.
Recently framed in a very complementary oak and maple frame with a white card mount, this gouache on paper is in excellent condition.

A very large and very vibrant oil that would definitely make for an eye-catching feature piece in any interior. The artist has explored the use of colour to its full effect, using bold and rhythmic brushstrokes that set your eyes dancing. Strong outlines and saturated colour in oil form wonderful patterns, reminiscent of the fauvist works by artists such as Henri Matisse.
The subject matter too is thoroughly heart warming – a family of 3 walk to the end of a path, taking in the view of the open sea through a gap in the luscious trees, as the surrounding landscape wraps them in a colourful and playful embrace.
This original mid century oil painting is by artist Hans Öllgard (1911-1969) and is housed in robust gilt frame. An engraved metal plate carrying the artist’s name and dates is affixed to the frame.

A lovely delicate miniature study of a horse painted in 1917. The overall beige and cream tones in this miniature watercolour, as well as the use of fine and soft brushstrokes lend much lightness to the overall tone.
It is well presented within a mount and a wonderful wooden frame with a wide profile and visible grain. With its multiple ‘windows’, this frame adds volume and focus to the painting, and pairs perfectly with it.
This framed miniature is in very good vintage condition. There is very slight crevice along the lower section of the frame that is visible only upon close inspection. The structure of the wood frame remains very stable.
Painting Size: 11.5 x 11.5 cm
Overall Size: 25.5 x 25.5 cm (including frame)

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.

This enchanting scene of a street fair is such a whimsical piece of art.
It’s a lovely day in Spring and the fair has just started. The street is lined with stalls selling an abundance of food, games and handicraft, as the crowd is slowly streaming in, and there is even a dog who wants to join the party.
This work brings back such delightful memories of visiting a carnival with friends or family, having so much fun, and always returning home with something new.

This idyllic oil painting of a pastoral landscape is the epitome of tranquillity and calm. A group of birds soar overhead , leading our eyes over the expanse of warm yellow fields towards the silhouettes of trees and cottages, and then further into the mountains beyond. The composition is very well balanced, with the sky and land taking up equal proportions, adding to the sense of harmony and expansiveness within the picture. A tractor is seen in the foreground – its purple colouring contrasting wonderfully with the warmer hues of the yellow field.
This painting, while delicate and tender, manages to capture both the beauty and vastness of the surrounding landscape. Housed in a gilt frame, it measures 40.5 x 48.5cm and is in very good vintage condition with only some light scuffing to the frame.

The serenity of nature is widely celebrated in this artwork, as it presents a landscape scene taken in Österlen – a region in Sweden well known for its natural environment.
What is striking is the horizontalness in the work – with the vertical plains drawn, almost stacked on one another – giving depth to the work.
Despite being just a viewer to this painting, the stillness and calmness radiating from the work is so powerful, that one can be easily transported to zen state of mind.
The painting comes in its original unique frame that suits the painting perfectly. There are minor scuffs to the frame, but this is in line with its age and vintage charm.

Rich creaming colouring, smooth yet confident brushwork, and a well balanced composition all come together in this visual delight. The way in which the artist has applied the coloured oil paints ignite all of our senses, beyond just the visual. We can imagine taking a bite into the fruit, it’s flesh juicy and sweet. The saturated orange and blue of the flowers in the vase tempt us to smell its fragrant aroma, and the terracotta water jug invites us to wrap our hands around it and feel its cool dry surface.
There’s a freshness and light to this still life that is akin to the atmosphere of a crisp early spring morning. This painting goes beyond a depiction of a group of objects, and instead delights us with an unexpected sensory experience.
Painted by Swedish artist Elsa Hansson Winnberg (1913-1987), it is housed in a very complementary gilt frame with hints of red, and is in excellent vintage condition.

This charming artwork of a boardwalk set against a river by a coastal town brings so much lightness and serenity to one’s heart.
It is a cloudy day, and thick clouds have filled the light blue sky. The wind is blowing strongly in the air – causing the lush greenery in the background to sway, and making the water’s surface uneven.
This gouache painting is uniquely characterised by wonderful blocks of colours as well as broad and textured brushstrokes. Through this, the artist has been able to skilfully produce forms in a somewhat distinct yet abstract manner; and the sweeping motion in which the brushworks have been applied breathe so much life and vigour to the overall artwork.
It is housed in white card mount and a blue stained wood frame which picks up on the colours within the painting beautifully. The painting is glazed (there is a layer of perspex between the frame and the painting) to ensure longevity.

This captivating expressionist oil is a fine example of the work by established artist Nathan Gutman. We cannot hear the tune that the pianist plays, but swirls of colour mimic the melody as it dances through the air, treating us to a visual experience in place of what would have been an aural one. Bright colours and dynamic brushstrokes fill the painting with a youthful energy.
Born in 1914 in Poland and of Jewish descent, Nathan Gutman is a well established artist who exhibited widely throughout his life.

There’s something wonderfully cosy and homely about this little painting titled ‘The Window’.
Perhaps it is the fact that as we look out the window, we see the dark grey clouds beyond and therefore the impending rainfall. But we’re inside, looking out, protected. We’ve collected our wildflowers and now it’s time for a cup of tea and a nice book, while nature outside gets its much needed watering.
This cheerful and pleasant oil on board is in excellent vintage condition. The white complementary frame as seen in the photos is included with the painting.

Many of us have fallen into a way of life that suffers from too much intensity, stimulation and distraction. Work is frantic, our email inboxes are clogged, and there is hardly time to reflect on anything.
This beautifully calm and serene landscape with grazing sheep allows us the chance to resume contact with a more solitary, thoughtful self that otherwise eludes us. It draws out our peaceful side and encapsulates a value of gentleness. The unpretentious simplicity of sheep nestled within a cool autumnal meadow encourages a modest, tender hearted happiness, far away from the stresses of life.
This confident yet sensitively hand-painted oil is wonderfully presented in a well suited gilt frame, and its classic style would fit in well with any interior. In excellent vintage condition.

A beautiful and serene still life that captured our hearts upon first sight.
Presented atop a mahogany wooden table is an arrangement of flowers in a vase, a sugar pot, and and 2 European vintage ceramic figurines of a boy and girl with animals around them.
What is so captivating about this work is that it has elements of both East and West – the artist has painted a dutch Delft blue and white chinoiserie porcelain vase that has some yellow overtones that further enhances its beauty.
The objects are set against a beautifully painted backdrop that picks up the colours of the flowers and the ornaments around it.
Very fine and soft brushstrokes have been used to create a smooth and delicate effect to the work, and there is great fluency from one subject to the next.
The artist has also skillfully captured the reflections of the objects cast against the wood grains of the table top.
Housed in its original frame, this is one of our larger artworks, and measures 88 x 69cm including the frame.

This bright expressionist oil depicting a harbour scene is wonderfully dynamic. Quick brushstrokes, heavy impasto and a vibrant colour palette lend themselves well to capturing the hustle and bustle of the busy dock at daytime. Surrounding the picture stand tall warehouses that have been built to serve the harbour, smoke bellowing from their chimneys. In the foreground merchants trading their goods scurry along. A white sailing ship with its tall mast is docked in the middle of the picture – its sailor just about to to disembark down the ladder.
This original oil is by Finish/Swedish artist Kurt Erik Heinonen was born in 1915 and died in 1983. This piece is typical in style and subject for Heinonen, who often used a palette knife with strong clear colouring, mainly painting the west coast region of Sweden with views of fishing harbours with boats.

A enchanting painting of a picturesque scene in Provence of lavender fields with mountains in the background. Spring has arrived, and one can almost smell the scent of lavender permeating the air, as the vibrant purple crops are ready for harvest. Four farmers are depicting out in the fields, enjoying their day while they harvest the crops. The buds have formed on the plant, but the flowers have yet to burst into full bloom – as it is the best time to be harvested.
The painting comes in lovely pastel tones, and the artist has managed to capture the delicate nature of flowers so effortlessly through the use of fine, short brushstrokes.
This is a mixed media on paper, and the vintage gilded frame with red velvet lining that comes with the artwork adds so much character to it. The painting is glazed (there is a layer of glass between the frame and artwork).

This oil on stretched canvas is excellently executed – blocks of contrasting green in both saturated and pastel shades give it so much life and movement.

The artist has executed the painting with flat planes of colour while still maintaining perspective within the picture – just stunning!

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 pair of espresso cups and a percolator, 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.

A stunning impressionist oil painting capturing a scene of a wharf with fishing boats docked by the river’s edge. It is a fine and quiet day in spring, the air is calm, and a beautiful reflection is cast on the water’s surface.
This work is a visual pleasure to any viewer, as there is so much harmony – from the balanced colours, forms, lines and texture presented. The transition of the crops and river in the foreground, to the wharf in the middle ground, and lastly to the forest and sky in the background is so well executed, it creates a sense of cohesion and wholeness to the painting.
