    SOLD

    A brilliantly executed mid-century modernist style painting that depicts a serene and minimalist interior scene, painted in oil onto board.

    The composition centers around a table, with simple furnishings. A lamp hangs from the ceiling, and the painting captures only parts of the room –  focusing on small details like a blue cushion, a container with pencils, and a partial view of a painting on the wall in the background.

    Drawing on a distinctly modernist ethos, the scene is rendered in blocks of soft, muted colours—light blues, soft creams, and earthy browns—creating a sense of tranquility and a calm atmosphere. The brushstrokes are textured yet subtle, evoking a peaceful, uncluttered space.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame with an inner linen border. The painting has a tiny pinhole at its lower left, which is only visible upon close inspection. Otherwise, the painting is in good vintage condition.

    Size: 52 x 74.5 cm (including frame)

  • The Atrium

    The Atrium

    Sold

    SOLD

    An outstanding mid-century modernist style interior scene that has an abstract architectural composition, executed in oil.

    The scene seems to depict an atrium with archways, columns, and perhaps a staircase, rendered in simplified, geometric forms. The composition is fragmented, with intersecting lines and overlapping planes that create a sense of depth and movement. At the right foreground, we can also spot a figure is entering the room.

    The colour palette is muted and cohesive, dominated by soft greys, blues and green. The artist has used these subdued shades to convey a calm atmosphere, with the occasional pop of a slightly warmer hue adding subtle contrast. The repeated use of colours draws attention to the shapes and the structure itself rather than vivid detail.

    The brushwork is expressive yet controlled, with broad blocky strokes that emphasise form over detail. Each section is carefully delineated, showing a balance between abstraction and structure.

    This oil is housed in a well-suited wood frame with an inner gilt window. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    Size:  53 x 36 cm (including frame)

    Nude at Rest

    Sold

    SOLD

    An emotive and very well-executed mid-century figurative nude composition, painted in oil on canvas.

    A nude female figure is presented lying upright on a striped couch in an interior setting. She is resting with her gaze turned away, unaware of the observer’s presence.

    All realistic details have been omitted, and instead, there is a strong focus on expressive brushwork that heightens the emotional resonance of the scene. The brushstrokes are bold and dynamic, imbuing the work with a sense of movement and emotional depth.

    The limited colour palette of cream, brown, black, and blue creates a harmonious yet poignant atmosphere, emphasising the figure’s solitude and demonstrating depth in the painting.
