• The Tram

    The Tram

    £625

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A small yet very striking modernist street scene composition, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The painting depicts a bustling scene in a city with a tram and some figures strolling in the foreground, and a building motif situated in the background of the painting.

    The artist has highlighted the silhouettes of the tram, building and figures with a thin black outline, and the painting has a sketch-like quality. Furthermore, by leaving areas of the canvas exposed, the artist’s creative use of negative space accentuates the shapes of the figure and objects, drawing our attention to their distinct forms.

    The painting is characterised by a beautiful rich palette, as well as expressive and lightly textured brushstrokes that reflect the uplifting energy of the city.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a beautiful wood frame with a linen border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has marks to its linen border as shown.

  • Cup Collective

    Cup Collective

    £350

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A contemporary still life painting that presents a playful arrangement of cups, each uniquely patterned and simplified into bold, graphic silhouettes, painted by British artist Annemarie Derrick in 2025.

    The composition features eight cups and mugs, neatly arranged in a grid, their individuality revealed through distinct decorative motifs – spots, stripes, florals, and sunburst designs.

    The style is characteristically contemporary with a nod to mid-century design sensibilities, balancing minimalism with whimsy. Executed in a muted palette of greys, creams, and whites, the work is enriched by subtle terracotta accents along the handles and outlines, lending warmth to the restrained tones. The background is painted in a flat, earthy grey that allows the cups to stand forward with quiet presence.

    The brushwork is confidently loose and textural, with visible strokes that add depth and tactility to the surface while retaining an intentionally naïve, hand-drawn charm. The simplicity of form and repetition creates a sense of rhythm and order, while the variety of decoration introduces individuality and delight.

    This painting is on cradled wooden panel and is presented in a white wooden floating frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

  • Sunny Cup

    Sunny Cup

    £315

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking contemporary still life painting that transforms the simplicity of everyday objects into an elegant study of form and balance, by British artist Annemarie Derrick and painted in 2025. 

    A tall jug, a short cup, a chalice-like cup with a simple sun motif, and a spoon are rendered with clarity and restraint against a muted, structured backdrop.

    Rendered in a naïve style, the painting captures stillness and poise. The restrained palette of soft greys, creams, and earthy neutrals brings a timeless quality, while the fine black outlines and deliberate brushwork lend both clarity and texture. The acrylic surface carries a tactile richness, with subtle variations in tone and brushstroke adding depth to the otherwise minimal arrangement.

    This acrylic painting is mounted a white wooden floating frame. There is a very tiny area of white on the taller jug, but the painting is in very good condition overall. The frame is in excellent condition.

  • Winter Valley

    Winter Valley

    £540

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An expressive mid-century modernist landscape that captures a quiet riverside valley, executed in oil onto board.

    The composition is dominated by angular mountains in deep forest greens and dark charcoals, their rugged forms rendered with bold, expressive brushwork. A wide, silvery river cuts across the middle ground, its surface marked by thick, horizontal strokes of slate grey and muted blue, suggesting the shimmer of icy water. In the foreground, simplified geometric shapes hint at houses or cabins along the riverbank, grounding the scene in human presence.

    The palette is restrained yet powerful, with cool greys, steely blues, and earthy greens accented by subtle touches of brown and white. The brushstrokes are vigorous and layered, applied with visible energy that conveys both the weight of the mountains and the restless flow of water. The overall style leans toward abstraction while maintaining the essence of the natural scene, reflecting the modernist drive to distil nature into form, colour, and movement.

    This oil on board is presented in a complementary silver frame with black border accents. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Fruit & Vase on a Table

    Fruit & Vase on a Table

    £465

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An energetic mid-century still life painting that presents a lively arrangement of everyday objects, infused with bold colour contrasts and expressive brushwork, and executed in oil onto board.

    At the centre, a plate of apples and pears glows in warm tones of red, yellow, and green, set against the cool blues of a decorative vase featuring a painted motif. To the side, a smaller plate of bright green grapes adds freshness to the composition, while a pair of vibrant pink carnations in a glass tumbler bring a delicate touch of nature.

    The background, composed of pastel pinks and yellows, is animated with broad, sweeping strokes that suggest the folds of drapery, creating a rhythmic backdrop for the objects. The painter has used strong, confident brushstrokes throughout, blending impressionistic looseness with the structural clarity of modernist still life. The palette juxtaposes cool blues and greys with warm fruit tones, producing both harmony and vibrancy.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary ridged gilt frame. There are some marks present on the vase but the painting is in good vintage condition overall. The frame has some scuff at its right edge.

  • The Kettle

    The Kettle

    £510

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    At the centre sits a copper kettle, its warm reddish-brown tones catching the light with subtle shifts of dark brown and russet. Behind it rises a blue bottle topped with a stark black dispenser, its vertical form contrasting the rounded bulk of the kettle. In the foreground, a small stove burner anchors the composition, rendered in deep greys and blacks.

    The artist has used a confident impasto technique, laying down thick, textured strokes of oil paint that emphasise form and surface over fine detail. The palette is restrained yet striking: earthy browns, deep blues, and muted greys set against a pale, neutral background. The brushwork is vigorous and directional, with strong diagonals and broken passages of paint that create both structure and movement within the scene.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary gilt frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Nordic Table Setting

    Nordic Table Setting

    £485

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A finely detailed 20th century large watercolour still life that captures a traditional Nordic feast laid out with precision and care, and dated 1918.

    At the centre of the composition is a generous cut of cured ham, its rich brown crust and creamy interior rendered with remarkable realism. Surrounding it are slices of rye crispbread, cold cuts, some cheese, and neatly folded napkins on delicate blue-and-white porcelain. A platter of fresh fruit  – apples, pears, and citrus – rises elegantly in a pedestal dish, while a curling sausage rests on a plate nearby. A floral arrangement in muted greens and browns adds an organic vertical balance to the arrangement, set against a soft teal curtain with an ornamental pattern.

    The style is naturalistic and quietly formal, with a focus on precision, order, and calm. The artist’s palette leans toward cool tones – icy blues, soft greys, and earthy greens – offset by warm browns and flesh tones in the food. The brushwork is delicate and controlled, with smooth washes and crisp lines characteristic of high mastery in watercolour technique.

    Textures are rendered with great sensitivity – from the porous bread to the glossy porcelain and leafy greens – imbuing the everyday subject matter with a sense of quiet reverence.

    This watercolour on paper  is housed in a complementary wood frame, and is glazed (there is a layer of glass between the frame and the painting to ensure its longevity). Both the painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.

  • Quiet Street Corner

    Quiet Street Corner

    £495

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An mid-century oil painting that captures a quiet street corner, where a row of low, yellow facades with shopfront windows are nestled beneath steep red-brown rooftops, executed in oil onto board and dated 1969.

    Behind them, tall apartment blocks rise in muted yellow and cream, their flat walls punctuated by chimneys and rooflines silhouetted against a pale blue sky. The streets are empty, save for a lone streetlamp and utility box, lending the scene a still, almost cinematic quality.

    The style blends modernist simplification with a touch of naïve precision, reducing architectural forms to bold, geometric planes while retaining enough detail to suggest texture and age. Colours are earthy and atmospheric -browns, and muted yellows dominate, contrasted by the cool grey of the street and the soft blue above. The brushwork is deliberate and smooth in the larger planes, while finer strokes animate the rooftops and wall textures, giving the surfaces a gently worn, lived-in feel.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary ridged gilt frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Vessels & Sculpture

    Vessels & Sculpture

    £425

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A mid-century still life that presents a striking composition of dark-toned vessels arranged upon a patterned textile, with a sculptural abstract form set against a deep plum backdrop, executed in oil onto canvas.

    At the forefront, a tall, slender vase and a rounded jug with a curving spout anchor the scene, their reflective surfaces rendered in moody blacks and greys. A geometric rug in red, blue, and white injects rhythm and contrast, its bold lines echoing the angular presence of the white sculptural form behind.

    Executed in oil, the painting reflects a restrained yet expressive mid-century sensibility. The palette is rich but muted – dominated by deep reds, greys, blacks, and earthy neutrals – balanced by the vibrant textile. The brushwork is confident, with layered textures that build form and volume while leaving visible the artist’s hand.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary wide wood frame finished in tones of soft grey with brown accents along the edges. The painting displays some craquelure, though the paint layer remains stable overall. There is a very small area of paint loss to the upper half of the picture, as shown in the close up photo. The frame shows some scuffs consistent with age as well.

  • Hillside Path

    Hillside Path

    £575

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A soothing mid-century painting that presents a bold and simplified view of a vast landscape scene, executed in oil onto canvas.

    A winding path leads the viewer’s eye through green and golden fields toward a body of deep blue water, flanked by steep, rounded hills in earthy browns and muted purples. A dense green shrub anchors the foreground, providing contrast against the golden fields and the cool expanse of water beyond.

    The style is distinctly modernist, with flattened planes of colour and an emphasis on form over detail. The artist has reduced the landscape into strong, geometric shapes, capturing the essence of the scene with clarity and economy.

    The palette is rich yet subdued. Brushstrokes are broad, confident, and deliberate, applied in smooth layers that enhance the sense of structure and solidity in the composition. The result is a landscape that feels both stylised and timeless, evoking a sense of journey and distance within its simplified, harmonious design.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary wooden frame with a warm brown finish that subtly echoes the earthy tones within the artwork. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some scuffs.

    Free UK Delivery Only.

    A playful and edgy one-off original monoprint presented in a sapele frame, by British artist Olivia Bouzyk.

    Unlike most printmaking, where artists create an edition of identical prints, a monoprint produces just one final piece. Olivia works on a plate — inking, painting, and layering textures — and then transfers the image onto paper. But because of the process, it can never be repeated in the same way again.

    This artworks is a two layered monoprint which creates new lines and curves through the simple layering. This allows each shape to emphasise its own individuality.

    Each work holds the spontaneity of the moment it was made — the way the ink spread, the pressure of the press, the marks left behind. No two are ever alike. When you own one of Olivia’s prints, you’re holding the only version that exists.

    Olivia works with contrasts in line, colour and form and a sense of harmony is achieved by balancing this series of juxtapositions.

    This artwork, as with the others, has no intended direction, so it can be hung to suit the viewer’s space/inclinations. The fixtures on the back of all the prints are on each side so that they can be hung in any direction, and the signature also has no intended direction.

    It is mounted and housed in a high quality sapele wood frame with anti reflective UV glass. Both frame and artwork are in excellent condition.

  • The Juggler

    The Juggler

    £455

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking mid-century modernist figurative painting that presents a stylised performer rendered in bold geometric abstraction, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The figure, dressed in a vivid patchwork costume of interlocking chevrons and colour blocks, stands poised with one arm outstretched, balancing two circular forms in green and blue. A mask and beret add to the theatrical quality, suggesting the subject is a harlequin or juggler.

    The composition is divided into distinct planes of muted colours that heighten the sense of stage-like drama. The ground is dotted with playful red and purple marks, while a looping line hints at a hoop or prop, reinforcing the carnival atmosphere.

    Executed in flat planes of paint, the brushwork is smooth and deliberate, with clean, well-defined edges that emphasise the crisp geometry of the design. The palette juxtaposes earthy tones with bright primaries, creating visual rhythm and balance.

    This oil on board is housed in a very well suited wood frame finished in a muted silver-grey tone with subtle golden highlights along the inner edge. The painting is in very good vintage condition, with only a small area of paint loss to the gold leaf of the frame.

  • Crimson Barns at Dusk

    £445

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A vibrant expressionist mid-century landscape captures a rustic rural scene bathed in the warm glow of a setting sun, executed in oil onto board.

    A winding path leads the viewer’s eye into the composition, where clusters of red barns and a white farmhouse sit nestled among rolling green fields and deep blue hills. The horizon blazes with golden and amber tones, suggesting the fleeting light of early evening.

    Executed in a bold, expressionistic style, the artist has used thick, confident impasto brushstrokes, allowing the paint to stand proud from the surface and convey a palpable sense of texture and movement. Colours are rich and saturated – crimson, emerald, orange, violet, and cobalt – layered to create depth and contrast. The sweeping strokes in the sky and land give the work a sense of energy and immediacy, while the simplified forms evoke a nostalgic charm.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary light wood frame with an inner linen-lining and gilt border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition.  The frame has some marks present but is in good condition overall.

  • Through the Tunnel

    Through the Tunnel

    £455

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A vibrant and compelling mid-century modernist painting that immerses the viewer in the perspective of a train driver at work, executed in oil onto board.

    Rendered in bold, confident brushstrokes, this composition captures the dense array of gauges, levers, and dials that surround the central figure – an train driver in a cobalt-blue uniform – who gazes ahead toward a set of diverging tracks leading into a shadowy tunnel.

    The style is distinctly modernist, echoing the industrial fascination of the mid-20th century. The artist has used a semi-abstract approach, reducing forms into rhythmic blocks of colour and simplified shapes that emphasise geometry over realism. Rich earthy browns and blacks contrast sharply with vivid blues, reds, and whites, bringing energy and movement to the interior space.

    The brushwork is vigorous and expressive, lending texture and dynamism to both the machinery and the tunnel’s receding perspective. This painting celebrates the machinery of modern life while subtly meditating on the solitude and focus of the individual amidst the mechanical world.

    This oil on board  is housed in a complementary gilt frame with and inner linen border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some marks on its linen border as shown but is in good vintage condition otherwise.

  • Golden Hour Fields

    Golden Hour Fields

    £585

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A charming and beautifully textured mid-century landscape painting that captures a tranquil rural scene rendered in a distinctly modernist style, and executed in oil onto board.

    At the heart of the composition lies a small red barn, nestled among tall trees that punctuate the gentle, undulating terrain. A ribbon of pale grey road leads the viewer’s eye diagonally through the canvas, bisecting fields of green and ochre that suggest cultivated land in late summer.

    The artist has used broad, expressive brushstrokes and a subtly geometric structure to the forms – typical of the mid-century approach to simplifying nature into bold planes and rhythmic patterns. The colour palette is rich but muted, with earthy greens, clay reds, greys, and soft sky blues evoking a nostalgic calm. Layers of thick impasto and visible directional strokes bring energy and movement to the otherwise serene countryside, giving the painting a textured, almost sculptural surface.

    This work is a beautiful testament to the artist’s ability to distil a landscape into its essential forms, while still conveying warmth, place, and time.

    This oil on board is housed in a unique gilt frame with a red inner border which complements the painting very well. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has minor scuffs.

  • By Candlelight

    By Candlelight

    £415

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A poignant mid-century still life composition that evokes solitude and reflection, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1977.

    The painting presents a tall, elegant candlestick with a melting white candle beside a thick, well-worn book. A dark ribbon bookmark drapes softly over the book’s cover. The composition is set against a deep red background and a muted olive-grey surface, creating a rich contrast that draws the viewer into the stillness of the scene.

    Executed in a restrained style, the artist has used minimal detailing and flat spatial planes, allowing texture and form to take precedence. The brushstrokes are deliberate and slightly coarse, especially in the candle’s flickering flame and the textured surface of the book’s pages, lending the piece a tactile quality. The muted, earthy palette enhances the painting’s meditative tone.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary wood frame with an inner gilded border. The painting has two small areas of paint loss as shown in the close ups. The frame is in good condition.

  • A Moment to Herself

    A Moment to Herself

    £495

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A mid-century figurative painting painted in 1955 that captures a contemplative figure absorbed in quiet work, seated near a sunlit window,  executed in oil onto canvas.

    The subject is cloaked in soft whites and muted yellows. Her back is turned, head bowed slightly, hands poised at a table – offering a moment of private introspection or perhaps diligent creation.

    Executed in a restrained, modernist style, the composition flattens and abstracts the figure and environment into planes of diffused light and soft geometry. The painting evokes a hushed, almost spiritual atmosphere, reinforced by the play of cool blues and dusky purples that mingle with the warm earth tones of the interior.

    The artist’s brushwork is loose yet deliberate, layering paint in broad, textural strokes that blur the lines between body and space. The window, though suggested rather than rendered in full detail, casts a cool radiance into the room, lending a structural balance and emotional focal point.

    This is a quietly moving piece – imbued with the kind of everyday poetry that typified mid-century figurative painting, where solitude, domesticity, and light become the true subjects.

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

  • Facade in Focus

    Facade in Focus

    £495

    Available

    Free UK Shipping Only

    A striking street scene that depicts a neighbourhood with robust, urban buildings rendered in bold linear rhythm, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1974.

    The façades are portrayed in a schematic and stylised manner, as strong black outlines segment the pale grey and white surfaces. Set against a smooth grey street with cobblestone detailing, the scene is framed by brick pillars and a wrought-iron fence, suggesting a modest residential area. A lone tree, ablaze with orange and green leaves, punctuates the structured composition and introduces a vivid contrast—perhaps hinting at early autumn.

    Executed in a modernist style, the work is characterised by its simplified forms, matte application, and confident brushwork. There is little modulation or blending – colours are laid down decisively, giving the piece a graphic, almost print-like clarity. The result is a striking yet quiet depiction of place, both grounded in reality and filtered through a stylised, personal lens.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has minor scuffs, particularly at its top left corner.

    Size: 73 x 86 cm (including frame)

    Structural View

    £530

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A compelling mid-century modernist urban landscape composition, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1956.

    The painting captures a quiet residential street scene as observed from behind a structural steel framework – perhaps the interior of a train, or a station canopy. The painting offers a fragmented urban perspective, with rooftops, chimneys, and facades clustered together under a brooding sky. The central teal-blue support beam divides the composition, creating a dynamic interplay between structure and scenery.

    Bold, sculptural brushstrokes and an expressive use of impasto lend a tactile richness to the scene. The palette leans cool, dominated by blue-greens and dusky greys, punctuated by muted maroons, browns, and pale yellows that bring warmth to the architectural forms.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary silver frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. There is some light scuffing to the frame, but it is in good condition overall.

  • Apple Reflection

    Apple Reflection

    £405

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A refined mid-century still life that captures a crisp moment of domestic simplicity with photorealistic precision, executed in oil onto canvas.

    At the centre, a knife rests diagonally on a highly polished surface, its reflection rendered with meticulous attention. Flanking it are three apple segments – one halved, one whole, and one freshly cut – each painted with soft transitions of red, yellow, and green, evoking ripeness and freshness.

    The artist employs a naturalistic style with subtle tonal gradations and a restrained palette. The composition is grounded in realism, but the clean backdrop and stark contrast between object and reflection give the work a modernist sharpness. The brushwork is smooth and controlled, with a finish so refined it nearly conceals the hand of the painter – typical of mid-century realism.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary wood frame . The painting is in excellent vintage  condition, and the frame has some paint peeling off on its inner section as shown in the photos.

  • Crimson Apples

    Crimson Apples

    £950

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

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

    The painting captures a bold composition of four red apples nestled in a pale ceramic bowl, as it channels a sense of rustic intimacy through its simplified forms and earthy palette. Set against a loosely-rendered, wood-textured tabletop with blues and greens framing the background, the work evokes both structure and spontaneity.

    Executed in a heavily impastoed style, the artist builds texture through deliberate, sculptural brushstrokes. The surface is rich with ridges of oil paint, applied thickly and expressively, lending dimensionality and movement to the otherwise still composition. Deep reds, moss greens, ochres, and navy blues dominate the palette, unified by the creamy whites of the bowl and accented by the textured backdrop.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame with an inner linen border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition,  and the frame has some marks at the bottom of its linen section.

  • Fruit & Brushes

    Fruit & Brushes

    £445

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A painterly and expressive mid-century still life composition, executed in oil onto board.

    This expressive composition offers a window into the artist’s studio through a rhythmic arrangement of objects  – a terracotta vase, a lilac-toned pitcher, a cobalt dish of orange fruit, and a pair of blue tumblers holding delicate paintbrushes.

    What sets this piece apart is the dynamic interplay of brushstroke and line. Thick, impasto layers are energetically applied, while the artist employs sgraffito – scratching into the wet paint with the back of a brush to reveal underlying tones and carve gestural lines into the surface. This technique adds both texture and movement, amplifying the painting’s sense of immediacy and spontaneity.

    The palette is a sophisticated interplay of soft mauves, deep greens, and muted blues, set against a textured backdrop that shifts from diagonal to vertical strokes  – echoing the tension between structure and freedom.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary hessian lined frame.  Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition. .

  • Market Day in the Square

    Market Day in the Square

    £450

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A charming mid-century Naïve style street scene that captures the rhythm and warmth of a local European town square on market day, executed in oil onto board and dated 1957.

    The composition presents a bustling yet orderly gathering of figures amid open stalls and sunlit awnings, set against the backdrop of a grand building with a steep red roof and tall chimney that anchors the composition.

    Executed in a naïve, folk-modernist style, the figures are rendered with simplified forms and minimal detail. The artist has used flat, blocky colour planes with earthy ochres, deep forest greens, navy blues, and brick reds, punctuated by soft greys and muted yellows in the cobbled square and overcast sky.

    Brushstrokes are direct and purposeful, with little blending. A defining feature of this work is the use of deep blue outlines – used not only to demarcate figures, umbrellas, and building edges, but also to bring coherence and rhythm to the composition. These cobalt contours give the scene an illustrative quality, emphasising form over detail.

    Overall, this work balances architectural geometry with the spontaneity of human life and community.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary wood frame with an inner linen border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has minor scuffs.

    A brilliantly executed contemporary abstract composition, executed in acrylic onto canvas, by British artist Frances Daws.
    The paintings in this series respond to the calming presence of the colour green. Frances consciously spends as much time as she can outside. She lives close to woodlands and fields, making it easy to be immersed within greenery. Resting in Green seeks to capture the varying shades of greens within a snapshot of plants and how the relationship of these colours can form interesting compositions.

    This fluid, abstract composition immerses the viewer in a serene, verdant atmosphere. Dominated by various shades of green, interwoven with hints of olive, moss, turquoise, and muted ochre, the work evokes the sensation of being enveloped by nature.

    Organic, curvilinear forms ripple across the canvas, overlapping and intertwining in a way that mimics the foliage that Frances is inspired by. She employs layered brushwork and soft transitions between tones, creating a gentle rhythm that guides the eye across the piece.

    There’s a meditative stillness in the work, capturing the quiet energy of an abstracted garden. Despite its abstraction, the composition feels balanced and harmonious, with light and dark greens playing off each other in a soothing visual dialogue.

    Both the painting and frame are in excellent condition. The artwork comes with a certificate of authenticity and signature on the reverse.

    Frances Daws is a British Artist working in the Southwest of England. Primarily a painter she also works within printmaking. Having lived by the English coastline and now residing within the countryside her work is often formed by ‘colour journeys’ a form of mapping the landscape through the emotive language of colour.

    Light at the End

    £450

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very atmospheric and peaceful woodland scene, executed in oil onto board.

    The composition draws the viewer’s eye into the distance, where sunlight breaks through a dense canopy of tall, straight pine trees. The path, dappled with light and shadow, winds gently forward, inviting contemplation and exploration.

    The foreground is shaded, with rich, dark greens and earthy browns suggesting the coolness of the woods. As the eye travels along the path, the scene brightens, culminating in a radiant burst of light filtering through the trees in the background — the “light at the end” referenced in the title.

    The artist uses careful gradations of light and realistic detailing in the foliage and tree trunks to create a tranquil, immersive atmosphere. The painting evokes a sense of peace, hope, and quiet movement toward clarity or resolution.

    This oil on board is housed in a very light mint green frame, which suits it beautifully. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

  • Cobalt Collision

    Cobalt Collision

    £445

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking abstract composition that explores depth and tension through bold, jagged forms that evoke architectural silhouettes or fragmented memories, painted in oil onto canvas and dated 1992 on reverse.

    Rendered in a palette dominated by cobalt blue, mustard yellow, black, and fiery orange, the painting crackles with energetic contrast. Dense, vertical planes in near-black anchor the work, while layers of scraped and scratched pigment reveal underlying tones, adding texture and movement.

    The brushwork is expressive and layered – some areas thick with impasto, others scumbled  – suggesting both spontaneity and deliberate structure. The interplay of shadow and saturated colour creates a visual rhythm that pulls the viewer inward, echoing the emotional intensity of late 20th-century abstraction.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary grey painted wood frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Red Roofs

    Red Roofs

    £480

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A mid century modernist village street scene, painted in oil onto board.

    The composition is symmetrical and well-balanced, featuring a pathway that leads the viewer’s eye through a quiet village street flanked by buildings and tall trees.

    The colour palette is composed of soft, muted tones—primarily earthy reds, blues, and greens. The red-roofed buildings on the left and the larger  structure on the right frame the scene, while the trees provide vertical balance and a touch of organic softness. The sky is lightly clouded, contributing to a calm and tranquil atmosphere.

    The style is precise and illustrative, with clean lines and simplified forms that maintain depth and perspective. Overall, the painting conveys a quiet charm and a sense of order, likely capturing a European rural or small-town setting with architectural elements suggesting Northern or Central European influences.

    The painting is beautifully presented in a wood frame with gilt detail and an inner linen lined border. Both painting and frame are in good vintage condition.

  • Still Life with Green Bottles

    Still Life with Green Bottles

    £445

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A charming modernist still life painting that captures a domestic tabletop scene with pared-down elegance and geometric order, executed in oil onto canvas.

    Two green bottles, a cluster of green apples, and a white bowl of leafy greens sit alongside a robust earthenware pot, all arranged on a grey placemat against a backdrop of vertical yellow stripes. In the distance, two halved eggs rest symmetrically on a narrow shelf, contributing to the balanced composition.

    The style is distinctly modernist, marked by flattened forms, strong outlines, and a harmonious structure. The artist has reduced everyday objects to simplified, almost architectural shapes – echoing the mid-century preoccupation with abstraction and clarity of form.

    The colour palette is rich and warm, dominated by yellows, olives, and soft blues, with accents of terracotta and cream. Brushstrokes are smooth and controlled, lending a calm, deliberate rhythm to the surface. This is a quiet composition that celebrates order, stillness, and the formal beauty of the mundane.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some scuffing.

  • Ancient Whispers

    Ancient Whispers

    £485

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A surreal and richly symbolic painting, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1991.

    The painting presents an enigmatic architectural interior scene that feels suspended between the past and the surreal. At the lower left lies a creature with piercing blue eyes, emerging and integrated into the patterned textile ground. Scattered elements including a large clay pot, transparent orbs, and an engraved oval tablet evoke archaeological relics, rituals, and memory.

    Rendered in a meticulous, linear texture, the architectural backdrop features soft arches and doorways. The entire composition is enclosed within a dominant arch motif, adding a quiet rhythm and continuity. The colour palette blends warm earth tones – terracotta and sandy neutrals  – offset with accents of blue and silver-grey.

    The brushwork is tight and deliberate, with fine lines etched almost like woven threads, giving the surface a tapestry-like quality. The result is a layered and contemplative piece that blurs the boundaries between memory, myth, and architecture.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary frame. The painting has a very small area of paint loss (as shown), but the paint layer is very stable overall. The frame has minor scuffing.

    Size: 68 x 68 cm (including frame)
