    Beneath the Pale Sky

    £825

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A brilliantly executed mid-century figurative composition, painted 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 two elongated female figures standing in stark silhouette, each holding a basket above their heads. Their forms are rendered in an abstracted, minimalist manner, emphasising gesture over detail. The simplified architecture in the background grounds the figures in a flattened, geometric landscape that resembles desert dwellings.

    Strongly influenced by modernist abstraction, the work embraces a reduction of form and a keen sense of balance.

    The colour palette is restrained, revolving around earthy and warm tones of browns and blush. The subdued colours evoke a sense of nostalgia, while the interplay of tones adds depth to the scene.

    The brushstrokes are soft and gentle, contributing to the smoothness of the surface and imbuing a soothing quality throughout the artwork.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary linen lined wood frame with an inner gilt window that suits that painting very well. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some age marks on its linen border.

    The painting evokes a quiet moment of everyday life, filled with the gentle rhythm of domestic routine and sunlight. It feels personal and nostalgic, emphasising the beauty in the ordinary.

    This artwork celebrates the charm of a simple, sunlit courtyard and the human presence felt through drying clothes — a slice of life turned poetic through expressive colour and form.

  • Ice Fishing

    Ice Fishing

    £495

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A mid-century oil painting that captures the quiet moment of an ice fisher, seated beside a small sled on a vast, frozen expanse, by Swedish artist Eric Elfvén (1921–2008), whose works have been exhibited in public collections including the Moderna Museet in Stockholm, Jönköping Museum, Borås Art Museum, and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.

    The figure is huddled near a freshly cut fishing hole, his vibrant clothing and gear providing a focal point against the endless white landscape. The distant horizon, painted in soft bands of pastel blues, greens, and violets, evokes the crisp stillness of a winter sky.

    Minimalist and impressionistic, the work favours capturing mood and atmosphere over intricate details. The artist conveys emotion through the restrained composition, focusing the viewer’s attention on the quiet perseverance of the scene.

    The palette is soft and delicate, capturing the serene nature of the scene.  The artist has used smooth, horizontal brushstrokes to build the expansive landscape and layered sky, while shorter, expressive marks define the figure and the cluster of dry grasses in the foreground. These contrasting textures add visual interest to the painting.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has very minot scuffing but is in very good condition overall.

    Sunlit Trail

    £400

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An expressive mid-century landscape painting that presents a serene forest scene where a winding path meanders into a shadowy grove of trees, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The viewer’s eye is drawn down the textured pathway, flanked by grass patches and surrounded by trees rendered in deep green hues. A subtle interplay of light and shadow suggests a dappled afternoon sun filtering through the foliage.

    Executed in a loose, expressive manner, the painting embraces abstraction without losing its representational roots. Gestural, confident brushstrokes dominate the canvas, especially in the foliage and pathway. The texture is richly layered, with heavy dabs of paint that suggest spontaneity and energy, while more subtle blending in some areas provides balance and depth.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a very well-suited wood frame with a hessian lined border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has scuffing present.

    £525

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking mid-century modernist abstract figurative painting that presents a seated figure rendered in deep, expressive shades of blue and green, executed in acrylic onto card.

    The figure, loosely defined with minimal facial features, appears to lean against a structure – possibly a chair or a window ledge – exuding a contemplative or introspective mood.

    The artist has used a bold and gestural approach, characteristic of mid-century abstraction, with broad, sweeping brushstrokes that create movement and depth. The composition is dominated by a cool colour palette of blues, teals, and emerald greens, punctuated by lighter areas that suggest illumination.

    The contrast between dark, shadowy areas and lighter highlights enhances the sense of atmosphere, while the figure’s simplified form retains an element of mystery and ambiguity.

    £525

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A large and serene modernist painting that captures a quiet waterfront scene with minimalistic charm, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1991.

    The composition features two docked boats beside a boathouse, nestled against a backdrop of stylised green trees. A lone figure stands near the entrance of the boathouse, adding a subtle human presence without disrupting the painting’s calm ambiance.

    Modernist in its ethos, the composition has been rendered in a flat, geometric style. The artist has skilfully deconstructed and simplified the scene into blocks of contrasting colours using expressive yet flat brushstrokes through horizontal layering that demonstrates depth to the painting. A muted yet harmonious palette of dusty greens, soft greys, beige, and pale blue have been used, imbuing with work with a soothing quality.

    £535

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    This serene and atmospheric mid-century landscape painting that captures the quiet stillness of a snow-covered shoreline, executed in oil onto board.

    A gentle path winds through the foreground, flanked by patches of exposed earth and subtle hints of foliage. Sparse trees – both evergreen and bare-branched – rise gracefully across the scene, while a frozen lake and distant forested hills fade softly into a muted grey sky.

    Rendered in an almost abstract style, the composition emphasises simplicity and mood over realistic detail. The artist has used a muted palette dominated by subdued greys, whites, pale yellows, and earthy browns, with soft green and red accents adding quiet contrast.

    Brushstrokes are short, expressive, and lightly textured – applied in a loose, painterly manner that creates a gentle rhythm throughout the piece. This approach conveys both the crispness and the quietude of a winter day.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary white frame with yellow tints. The painting has some very small surface marks to the left side as shown in the close ups, but it is in very good condition overall. The frame has some slight age wear but is also in good condition overall.

    The boats, depicted in dark, earthy tones, contrast against the soft delicate hues of the misty shoreline in the background. The artist skilfully conveys depth and atmosphere with a subtle, diffused horizon line, where distant landmasses and boats fade into the hazy sky.

    Containing elements of impressionism, the artist has used loose yet deliberate brushstrokes that add a sense of movement and reflection on the water’s surface.

  • Apple & Dancing Forms

    Apple & Dancing Forms

    £650

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A brilliantly executed abstract composition drawn in biro onto paper, by British artist Enos Lovatt (1937-2018).

    This intricate composition has a dynamic, surreal quality, filled with abstract forms and stylised figures. The cross-hatching and dense linework typical of biro drawings are skilfully used to create depth, contrast, and texture. The artist plays with positive and negative space, using white areas effectively to highlight the main forms amidst the dark, densely filled background.

    The drawing has strong influences from Surrealism and Abstract Expressionism, with its dream-like imagery and focus on fluidity, symbolism, and subconscious forms. There’s a sense of narrative, though it remains open-ended and abstract, encouraging personal interpretation.

    Overall, the piece is bold, intricate, and highly textured, showcasing the meticulous potential of the humble biro pen in the hands of a skilled artist.

    Both the drawing and frame are in excellent vintage condition. The painting is presented within a card mount and a stained black wooden frame, and is protected behind perspex. 

    Enos Lovatt (1937–2018) studied at Burslem School of Art and the Royal College of Art (1959–1962) before becoming Senior Lecturer in Fine Art at Staffordshire Polytechnic until 1992. A prolific artist, he worked in oils, gouache, acrylics, ceramics, and biro, leaving behind thousands of works. He exhibited sporadically, including solo shows in City Museum and Art Gallery in Stoke-on-Trent, one man shows at the Paton and Woodstock Galleries in London and at Stafford Museum and Art Gallery.

    In the early 1990s, Enos lost most of the three middle fingers on his dominant right hand in a lawnmower accident. The biros allowed him to navigate his vivid and unique imagination and bring the thoughts and images in his head to life in their purest form of magic realism. This drawing was created in the early 2000s.

  • Children at Play

    £650

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A large mid century modernist composition in gouache, by British artist Enos Lovatt (1937-2018).

    This expressive gouache painting features a collection of abstract, stylized human figures, arranged vertically against a bold turquoise background. The figures are outlined with heavy black lines, giving them a graphic, almost childlike quality. Each character has a distinct presence but is rendered with simplified forms and exaggerated facial features.

    The gouache medium allows for bold, opaque colour application, giving the painting a vibrant, matte finish. Visible brushstrokes and unrefined edges enhance the raw, expressive energy.

    Overall, this piece feels dynamic and full of personality, with a playful yet intense aesthetic that invites viewers to interpret the relationships and emotions of the figures.

    The painting is presented within a card mount and a ochre wooden frame with silver leaf detailing, and is protected behind perspex. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    Much of Enos’ work on paper from the 1950s to 1970s uses gouache, often in tandem with other media. Gouache allowed his joy and passion for colour to shine. Enos’ work straddled the worlds of figurative and abstracted art as he dipped into both with equal enthusiasm.

    £650

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A large and very striking mid century modernist composition in gouache, by British artist Enos Lovatt (1937-2018).

    This vibrant gouache painting showcases an abstract, expressive portrait of a figure, executed with energetic, gestural lines and a vivid colour palette.

    Dominated by electric blues, purples, reds, greens, and black, with accents of yellow, pink, and white. The intense use of colour creates a dynamic, almost chaotic atmosphere. The central figure is constructed with a loose, overlapping web of continuous, scribbled lines. The facial features—particularly the eyes—are more defined yet still fragmented, conveying a sense of complexity and introspection.

    The painting exudes intensity and vulnerability, inviting viewers to engage with the emotional landscape behind the fragmented human figure.

    The painting is presented within in a card mount and a ochre wooden frame with silver leaf detailing, and is protected behind perspex. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition. The painting has very small losses to upper corners of paper as seen in the photos.

    A large and vibrant mid century modernist composition in gouache, by British artist Enos Lvoatt (1937-2018).

    This gouache painting presents an abstract, expressionist portrait of a human face. The figure is stylised, with exaggerated features and bold, energetic lines that convey a sense of intensity and emotion.

    Dominated by deep shades of red, purple, black, and blue, with accents of vibrant yellow and cyan. These contrasting colours create a strong visual tension. Colourful lines, particularly a yellow loop and bold blue stroke, cut across the face and neck, adding dynamic movement and further abstracting the form.

    Overall, the painting feels charged with emotional intensity, inviting viewers to interpret the subject’s inner world through its bold, non-traditional portrayal.

    The painting is presented within in a card mount and a ochre wooden frame with silver leaf detailing, and is protected behind perspex. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Pears & Glass Vase

    Pears & Glass Vase

    £1,050

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A brilliantly executed and characterful surrealist still life composition, executed in tempera on board in 1965 by the established Swedish artist Eric Cederberg (1897-1984), whose artworks have been represented in several public and museum collections across Sweden.

    Small yet impactful in its composition, the painting presents a carefully arranged tabletop composition featuring a glass vase adorned with delicate white floral patterns, a collection of green pears—some resting on a blue dish and others scattered on the wooden surface—and a gracefully curved branch with a golden autumn leaf. The background includes an arched doorway leading to a softly lit room, with a checkered floor adding a geometric contrast to the organic shapes of the fruit and vase.

    Inviting viewers to revel in the simple beauty of everyday objects, the artist masterfully captures the essence of surrealism and realism through his meticulous brushwork and keen attention to detail, as well as by simplifying the objects into bold, flat shapes.

    The colour palette is rich, and the artist has skilfully used subtle gradations of tone to suggest volume, particularly in the glass vase and pears.

    The brushstrokes are precise, smooth and clean – emphasising the flatness of the shapes and contributing to the tempera medium’s characteristic of flatness and opacity. This technique lends the painting a polished, clean aesthetic.

     

    This tempera on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame with an inner linen border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has water marks and wear across its inner border, and has some light scuffing present as well.

  • Echoes of the Coast

    Echoes of the Coast

    £400

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A dynamic yet serene mid-century modernist coastal landscape painting, executed in oil onto board.

    The composition captures a tranquil seascape with a bold yet abstracted and simplified approach. A vivid blue sky stretches above a deep azure ocean, with small landmasses appearing in the distance. The foreground presents rocky terrain with dynamic, gestural strokes of earthy tones—rich browns, and hints of purple and white—contrasting with the bright greens of greenery.

    Executed in a modernist style, the painting embraces expressive and slightly abstracted forms rather than realistic details. The colours are vibrant, with a strong emphasis on blues and greens, juxtaposed against warmer, muted earth tones. The brushwork is loose, gestural, and confident, with visible, textured strokes adding movement and depth to the composition. The sky exhibits smooth, blended transitions, while the land and sea are defined by more spontaneous, energetic marks, reflecting the raw beauty of a windswept coastal environment.

    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.

    Pitcher & Candlestick

    £460

    Sold

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very well executed mid century modernist still life composition, painted in oil onto board.

    This painting is a still life composition created in an impressionistic or post-impressionistic style, featuring a tabletop scene with a pitcher, fruit, a candlestick, and other everyday objects. The artist has used bold, expressive brushstrokes and a rich earthy colour palette, with warm browns, ochres, greens, and muted yellows.

    The light source from the left side casts soft shadows on the tablecloth, enhancing the sense of depth and texture. The background features a wooden interior with vertical strokes, adding a sense of structure and warmth. The painterly quality of the piece suggests movement and emotion, reminiscent of Cézanne’s approach to still life, with objects slightly distorted yet carefully arranged to create harmony.

    The thick application of paint and visible brushstrokes add to the tactile quality of the painting, making it feel both intimate and dynamic. The scene captures a moment of quiet simplicity, inviting the viewer to appreciate the beauty in everyday objects.

    The painting is presented in a really lovely wood frame with an inner gilt border. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Drift and Thought

    Drift and Thought

    £530

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A mid-century modernist painting that presents a tranquil seaside scene, executed in oil onto board.

    The painting features two abstracted figures seated near a boat. The figure on the left, clad in a striking yellow coat, appears to be engaged in quiet reflection, while the darker-clothed figure in the foreground seems to be writing or sketching. A boat, rendered in bold strokes of blue and red, rests on the shore, adding a strong geometric contrast to the muted landscape.

    Executed in a modernist style, the artist has skilfully simplified the forms into blocks of contrasting shades, and has used a restrained yet effective palette.

    The vibrant yellow of the coat and the red of the boat capture our attention, as they stand out among the overall subdued shades that imbue the work with a soothing quality.

    The brushstrokes are thick and expressive, applied with a sense of immediacy and texture that enhances the painting’s tactile quality.

    The composition is carefully balanced, with the diagonal placement of the boat and figures guiding the viewer’s eye across the painting, creating a sense of depth.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary champagne frame with an inner linen border. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    £440

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An atmospheric mid-century modern landscape painting captures a windswept winter scene with a rich, expressive impasto technique, painted in oil onto canvas.

    The composition features a grove of abstracted trees bending under the force of the wind, their forms defined by thick, gestural brushstrokes. The background consists of rolling hills and a distant horizon, suggesting a rural or natural setting in the colder months.

    Executed in a semi-impressionistic yet abstract manner, the artist has used a restrained but effective muted colour palette dominated by cool whites, icy blues, and deep browns, punctuated by warm subdued shades of orange and yellows.

    The brushwork is dynamic and textured, with visible bold, sweeping strokes that emphasise movement and energy. The interplay between thick layers of paint and areas of exposed canvas adds to the raw, expressive quality of the piece.

    Interior with Painting

    £490

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An expressive and uplifting mid-century modernist painting that showcases a richly decorated interior scene, executed in oil onto board.

    The composition features a still life arrangement in the foreground and a vibrant seaside painting adorning the wall. The scene is anchored by a patterned tablecloth draped over a round table, which holds a bowl of fruit, a ceramic dish, and a guitar. Surrounding the table are striped upholstered chairs, adding an inviting atmosphere to the space. In the background, a framed painting of a lively harbour with colourful sailboats adds a lively quality to the scene.

    Executed in a Fauvist-influenced, post-impressionist style, the painting embraces bold colour choices, flattened perspective, and an expressive, spontaneous approach to form. The composition plays with pattern and contrast, reminiscent of Henri Matisse’s interior scenes, where objects and décor hold as much visual weight as the background elements.

    The brushwork is lively and gestural, with painterly strokes adding texture and vibrancy. The artist has used a loose, expressive technique, giving the composition an energetic and dynamic feel.

    £630

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking mid-century modernist semi-abstract figurative painting, executed in oil onto board and dated 1964.

    The composition captures a dynamic and abstracted scene of three figures engaged in daily activities. It suggests a communal or domestic setting, possibly depicting women preparing food or engaged in household chores.

  • The Expectant Nude

    The Expectant Nude

    £495

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.
