  • A Moment Left Behind

    A Moment Left Behind

    Sold

    SOLD

    A modernist style interior still life composition that captures a quiet moment, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1959.

    The painting features a table with a yellow chair in the foreground, set against a background of geometric planes in muted tones. On the table, a green bottle with a red seal, a glass, and a small red bowl are arranged across a pink tablecloth. A dark green jacket is draped casually over another chair, adding an element of human presence without directly depicting a figure.

    The painting embraces a modernist approach. The perspective is slightly flattened, and the shapes of objects are reduced to their essential forms.  The artist has utilised strong but subtle structural lines to define space.

    The colour palette features predominantly muted shades of blues, greys, and pinks, which imbue the work with a calm and slightly melancholic atmosphere.

    This oil on canvas is housed in complementary gilt and white ridged frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has minor scuffs but this is in keeping with its vintage style.

    The scene features a potted plant with delicate white flowers, a woven basket, a small musician figurine with a blue guitar, and a green fruit, all set against a richly patterned background of intersecting planes.

    Modernist in its ethos, the artist has skilfully deconstructed and simplified the scene into blocks of contrasting colour.

    The colour palette is a harmonious mix of muted blues, warm reds, and earthy greens, punctuated by the bright yellow of the figurine’s hat and scarf. These hues create a sense of balance and vibrancy within the scene.

    The brushstrokes are expressive and confident and the paint has been applied in broad, deliberate strokes –  reinforcing the geometric nature of the composition while adding a sense of movement and depth.

  • Figure in the Doorway

    Figure in the Doorway

    Sold

    SOLD

    A mid-century painting that presents a quiet yet enigmatic interior scene, painted in oil onto board and dated 1954.

    At the center, a wooden chair is angled toward the viewer, its form simplified but solid, resting on a textured floor. Beyond, in the doorway, stands the faint silhouette of a lone figure in a long garment, their presence blurred and shadowed, suggesting mystery or distance.

    Executed in a modernist style, the work combines both figurative and abstract qualities. The composition is pared back, relying on the strong geometry of the chair, doorway, and vertical planes of colour to structure the space. The moody palette is rich and earthy, with deep browns, warm ochres, and muted greens offset by dark shadowed passages that intensify the mood.

    The brushstrokes are bold and expressive, applied with visible texture and energy. Textured areas contrast with more thinly brushed passages, creating a play between solidity and suggestion. The figure itself is rendered in loose, gestural marks, dissolving into the background rather than standing out, emphasising atmosphere over detail.

    Overall, the painting captures the stillness of an interior space while imbuing it with psychological weight, inviting the viewer to contemplate the relationship between absence, presence, and memory.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary solid wood frame with distinct grain, that adds character to the painting.  The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has scuffs.

    A glass vase brimming with orange blossoms and fruit sits atop a rustic wooden table, surrounded by scattered citrus and dark green leaves. The background features a deep blue door, lending the composition a sense of quiet intimacy.

    Executed in a modernist style, the painting bears the influence of post-Impressionism, with a strong emphasis on form and colour over fine detail. The palette is warm and inviting – burnt oranges, earthy browns, and greens are offset by the cool blues of the background. The brushstrokes are expressive and confident, with visible texture and gestural energy, lending the piece a sense of immediacy and vitality.

  • Window with Ball

    Window with Ball

    Sold

    SOLD

    An enigmatic surrealist oil painting that presents a dark background dominated by a single window and a tricoloured ball, executed in oil onto board.

    The window panes have been divided into geometric sections revealing muted grey rooftops beneath a pale blue sky. Below the window floats a ball – its placement lending an air of quiet mystery and symbolism.

    The composition is minimalist yet bold, marked by sharp contrasts between the flat darkness of the wall, the cool angular forms of the rooftops, and the round, playful sphere. The palette is restrained, relying on midnight blue, grey, black, and muted pastels, punctuated by the vibrant tri-band of the ball, which becomes the focal point of the work.

    The brushwork is controlled and precise, with smooth, even applications of paint that emphasise form and clarity over texture. The handling reflects an affinity with surrealist traditions, evoking both stillness and intrigue.

    This oil on board is presented in a complementary hessian-lined frame with an inner and outer wood border. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    Lemon & Blooms

    Sold

    SOLD

    A charming and elegant mid-century interior still life painting, executed in oil onto board.

    At the centre sits a yellow ceramic pot bursting with vibrant red and white blooms, flanked by a sculptural beige jug and a boldly striped canister in terracotta and black. A lone lemon rests on a deep green plate, adding a fresh burst of colour to the composition.

    The style is distinctly modernist, marked by simplified forms, flat areas of colour, and a strong compositional structure. The muted yet warm palette – dominated by yellows, sage green, terracotta, and whites – is gently enlivened by the flower’s orange flare. Brushwork is smooth and controlled, giving the painting a clean quality, while the arrangement feels both intentional and intimate.

    This piece celebrates the beauty of everyday objects, rendered with quiet confidence and timeless charm.

  • Sunlit Room

    Sunlit Room

    Sold

    SOLD

    A mid-century modernist painting of an interior scene that captures the quiet intimacy of a domestic space rendered through a restrained yet expressive lens, painted in oil onto board and dated 1950.

    The composition depicts a corner of a modest room: a simple wooden chair rests to the left, a sideboard with a neatly draped cloth anchors the centre, and an open doorway offers a glimpse into another space beyond, where muted vertical lines hint at hanging garments.

    Executed in a loose, painterly style, the work favours suggestion over precision, with forms distilled into geometric blocks and softened edges. The palette blends warm orange and browns, cool greys, creamy whites, and muted greens, with accents of blue and lavender lending gentle vibrancy. Broad, confident brushstrokes layer opaque passages of paint, while areas of visible underpainting and texture evoke both the tactile quality of the interior and the hand of the artist.

    The scene carries a sense of quiet stillness, yet the artist’s modernist sensibilities imbue it with a dynamic interplay between colour, shape, and light, making it as much a study in spatial harmony as a record of a lived-in space.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition and the frame has minor marks.

The backdrop is a moody, textured wash of blue, suggesting a window or a darkened interior wall, offering contrast to the brighter foreground.

    Executed in a modernist style, the composition emphasises flat planes of colour and simplified forms. The palette is rich but controlled – yellow, navy blue, forest green, and earthy reds dominate the scene. The artist has used broad, confident brushstrokes and has left traces of underpainting and canvas texture visible, giving the work a spontaneous, tactile quality. The interplay between geometric shapes and organic curves imbues this still life with both structure and intimacy.

    The flower is flanked by two pitchers – one an earthy brown and the other a cool, light pale blue. The background is divided into blocks of pastel yellows, muted purples, and soft aquas, creating a subtly abstracted interior that emphasises tonal harmony and light.

    Painted with loose yet deliberate brushwork, the surface reveals the artist’s hand in every sweep and dab, imbuing the scene with movement.

    A large and expressive mid-century interior still life that captures a quiet, contemplative moment within a rustic domestic space,  executed in oil onto canvas.

    A brilliantly executed mid-century modernist interior scene, painted in oil onto canvas and dated 1958.

    Interior with Red Chair

    Sold

    SOLD

    A compelling and emotive interior still life painting, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1989.

    In this composition, the artist presents a loosely rendered interior scene suffused with mood and memory. A single red chair, boldly defined in the foreground, anchors the composition and draws the viewer’s gaze. Behind it, a soft turquoise table supports a glowing white pot, while indistinct shapes and brushstrokes in the background suggest an intimate room.

    The style leans toward abstract expressionism with hints of figurative elements. Colours are layered in earthy tones – dusty reds, muddy browns, and muted teals – interrupted by flickers of yellow and white light that evoke a hazy, lived-in atmosphere.

    To the left, a vase of red tulips placed on a counter offers a splash of natural warmth, creating a gentle contrast with the cool, muted palette of mint greens, dusky blues, pale purples, and earthy brows.

    Executed in a flattened style, the artist plays with skewed perspectives and overlapping planes, lending the work a sense of spatial ambiguity and quiet introspection.

  • Introspective Man

    Introspective Man

    Sold

    SOLD

    A large mid century modernist figurative composition in oil, painted onto board.

    This painting is an expressive, semi-abstract portrait rendered in a loose, painterly style. It depicts a seated figure at a table, surrounded by shades of blue and teal, which dominate the composition and establish a cool, contemplative mood.

    A tall vase of white flowers sits prominently on the table, painted with gestural, quick strokes. The flowers and green stems contrast sharply with the blue background, drawing the viewer’s eye.

    The surface is highly textured, with areas of impasto and visible brushstrokes, particularly around the figure and floral arrangement. A range of blues—from pale to deep ultramarine—forms the primary backdrop, softened by touches of brown, green, white, and flesh tones. A small patch of bright blue on the table adds a focal point in the foreground.

    This is a moody, introspective work that captures a quiet moment of solitude or thoughtfulness. The use of abstraction and layered brushwork conveys depth and emotion, while the limited palette enhances the sense of stillness and quiet. It’s a piece that invites reflection, both visually and emotionally.

    A brilliantly executed composition that presents a solitary, stylised nude figure leaning against a plinth in what appears to be an abstracted artist’s studio or model room, painted in oil onto canvas.

    Composed in 1972, the painting captures a quiet moment of introspection and stillness, with the figure’s curved posture offering a gentle contrast to the geometric rigidity of the surrounding environment.

    Executed in a distinctly modernist style, the composition is constructed from flat, overlapping planes in muted tones of olive green, slate blue, warm orange, and deep maroon. The palette is cool and contemplative, creating a sense of psychological distance. A bold vertical panel in ultramarine anchors the left side of the work, drawing the eye toward the model. The right side recedes into architectural partitions and screens, painted in icy blue hues that hint at spatial depth without offering realism.

    The artist’s brushwork is smooth and restrained, with minimal surface texture. Shadows and contours are suggested through tonal blocks rather than modelled detail, emphasising form over naturalism. This painting exemplifies a mid-century approach to figuration – introspective, architectural, and emotionally withheld – where the human form becomes part of a studied, constructed environment.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary wood frame painted silver. Both painting and frame are in good vintage condition.

    Chair & Vessels

    Sold

    SOLD

    A small yet compelling mid-century modernist interior scene executed in a geometric abstraction style and muted tonal harmony, painted in oil onto board.

    The composition features a simplified domestic arrangement –  a wooden chair, a tabletop with ceramic vessels –  all rendered in blocky, interlocking planes. The artist’s approach flattens space, drawing influence from Cubism, while retaining the warmth and familiarity of a lived-in interior.

    The muted palette consists of greens, blues, and browns, evoking a calm, contemplative atmosphere. The brushwork is assertive and sculptural, with short, directional strokes that build texture and form without over-modelling. Each object is distilled to its essential volume, balancing abstraction with recognisability.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary deep, gold-edged frame with an inner linen lining. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free shipping UK delivery only.

    A fun and playful large 20th century cubist composition, painted in oil onto canvas and dated 1975 by Belgian artist Pierre Goossens.

    This painting is a vibrant and structured cubist-style still life, featuring a table densely packed with musical instruments and domestic objects, rendered in flattened geometric forms and bold, contrasting colours.

    At the centre is a large guitar, overlapping with a mandolin or lute, both abstracted into simplified, stylized shapes. A pair of green glasses or vessels, a red beret, and a bottle or vase are also identifiable among the layered elements. The tablecloth is covered with various patterned fabrics, adding texture and complexity. Behind the scene, an open window reveals a bright blue sky with fluffy white clouds, bringing depth and a suggestion of an exterior world.

    The overall palette combines warm earthy tones (browns, reds, and ochres) with cool blues and blacks, creating dynamic visual contrast. The artist uses strong outlines and flat planes to define the forms, typical of the cubist and synthetic cubist approaches influenced by Picasso and Braque.

    This painting is lively and rhythmic, celebrating form and colour through a stylised representation of everyday objects in a domestic or café-like setting.

    This large oil on canvas is presented in a stepped black wood frame with an inner pale blue slip, which suits it well. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some surface wear and scuffing but is in a good and stable condition.

    Size: 65 x 95.5 cm

  • The Scalloped Basket

    The Scalloped Basket

    Sold

    SOLD

    A vivid and striking mid century modernist still life composition in oil, painted onto board.

    This painting is a semi-abstract still life with bold shapes and expressive brushwork. It features a dark bowl or basket with a scalloped white rim sitting on a patterned, richly coloured surface, possibly a tablecloth. Next to the bowl are two round yellow and green fruits, likely a lemon and an apple.

    The tablecloth has a fragmented, mosaic-like design in deep reds, blues, and blacks, creating strong visual texture and depth. The bowl or dish dominates the left side of the composition, with jagged white accents that contrast sharply with the dark background. The fruits on the lower right provide a pop of colour with their bright yellows and greens. The background wall is pale, divided into two contrasting patches of cream and olive green, adding to the geometric structure of the piece.

    The painting is expressionist in style, with loose, energetic brushstrokes and abstracted forms. It emphasises contrast—between light and dark, soft and sharp, warm and cool tones. The mood is introspective and slightly mysterious, inviting the viewer to interpret the scene beyond its literal objects.

    This oil on board is housed in a simple wood frame which draws attention to the painting. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • The Artist's Worktop

    The Artist’s Worktop

    Sold

    SOLD

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

    This painting is a still life composition featuring an arrangement of bottles, jars, and vessels on a tabletop. It is probably an artist’s table , as we can see used paint brushes and palette knives in the bottles.  Rendered in a loose, painterly style, it captures the textures and forms of everyday objects with expressive brushwork and a subdued yet rich colour palette.

    The colour palette is primarily earthy tones—browns, muted greens, and soft blues—contrasted against a neutral grey-beige background. The light source is subtle, creating soft highlights and shadows, giving volume and depth to the bottles. The strokes are confident and expressive, emphasising form over detail, typical of a modern impressionist or post-impressionist approach.

    The atmosphere is calm and introspective, inviting viewers to appreciate the beauty in simple, overlooked objects. The painting carries a sense of quiet domesticity and artistic reflection, possibly referencing the workspace of a painter or craftsperson.

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