A vibrant and expressive mid-century still life painting with wonderful texture, executed in oil onto canvas.

The composition depicts two flowering plants in terracotta pots, their bold red blooms bursting with energy against a softly lit interior backdrop. The composition centres on the lush, elongated green leaves and radiant flowers, capturing the vitality of the plants as they lean and unfurl with natural dynamism.

Executed in a distinctly mid-century expressionist style, the painting embraces thick, confident impasto throughout. Generous, sculptural brushstrokes build up the surface, giving the petals and foliage a textured, almost tactile presence. The palette is warm and uplifting: vivid red and coral for the blossoms, earthy greens for the foliage, deep browns for the pots, and a soft mixture of creams, yellows, and pale blues in the surrounding interior.

The artist’s vigorous technique brings a sense of immediacy and movement, allowing the flowers to feel almost alive. Light dances across the textured paint, adding depth and a glowing warmth that enhances the overall charm of the scene.

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

A lively and playful abstracted mid-century still life that transforms everyday objects into rhythmic shapes and patterns, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1951.

At the heart of the composition appears a wide-brimmed box beside a compact dish, set against a fragmented tabletop filled with textiles and geometric designs. The artist plays with perspective, flattening and tilting planes to create a patchwork of dynamic, interlocking forms that pulse with colour and texture.

The painting exemplifies the modernist fascination with form and balance: where representation gives way to feeling. Its visual language recalls both cubist structure and the spontaneity of mid-century Scandinavian abstraction, with domestic motifs rendered through bold simplification.

A harmonious palette of yellows, teal, olive green, dusty pink, and cream is punctuated by rhythmic strokes of red and blue. The brushwork is confident yet playful: thick, directional strokes build texture and depth, while smoother planes of pastel create moments of calm. The artist’s handling of paint is distinctly expressive, leaving visible brush trails that add vibrancy and movement across the canvas.

This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary slim wood. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has light scuffing to the lower half but is otherwise in good condition.

A gentle and poetic mid-century interior still life that captures a moment of quiet radiance, executed in oil onto canvas.

The scene centres on a teal table, upon which rests a small earthen pot of pink flowers, bathed in a cascade of soft morning light filtering through tall windows. The painter transforms a humble domestic corner into a study of atmosphere: where form dissolves into light and shadow.

Executed in a loose, impressionistic style, the artist has used delicate, feathery brushstrokes and thin layers of paint to build an airy, almost translucent composition. Muted mauves, lilacs, pale yellows, and soft greys create a dreamlike haze, while the turquoise of the table provides a striking counterpoint of solidity within the diffused glow. The brushwork is confident yet restrained – the marks suggesting more than defining, allowing the viewer’s imagination to fill in the forms.

The overall effect is one of serenity and light: a meditation on stillness and the subtle poetry of the everyday interior.

This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary wood frame with a rich and warm oak tone, and with an inner gilt window. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some scuffing.

Size: 62 x 53.5 cm (including frame)

An elegant mid-century still life that captures a charming scene of three potted plants arranged along a windowsill and silhouetted against an exterior scene of houses, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1947.

The central cactus dominates the composition with its upright, almost sculptural form, flanked by 2 other leafy plants on its sides. Through the window, the viewer glimpses a townscape with brown and red buildings, softened by pale skies and winter-bare trees.

Painted in an expressive style, the work fuses still life with urban landscape. It is representational but simplified, with a strong emphasis on shape, form, and the interplay between interior and exterior space. The artist captures not just the plants themselves, but also the mood of the scene – a quiet, contemplative moment of domestic life through the use of earthy muted shades.

The brushwork is bold and textured, with a rough, impasto application that gives the surface a tactile quality. Forms are built up through broad, confident strokes, while details are pared back to essentials, creating a sense of rhythm and structure.

This oil on board is beautifully presented in a well-suited wooden frame with an inner gilt border. The work itself is in good vintage condition, with two small pin holes to the top section when inspected closely (one at the middle of the top edge and another near the blossoming tree) – which do not detract from its overall impression. The frame is also in good condition with minor surface wear.
