Blue Vessel & Pears

Sold

SOLD

A charming and characterful mid-century interior still life composition executed in tempera on board and dated 1973, by the established Swedish artist Eric Cederberg (1897-1984), whose artworks have been represented in several public and museum collections across Sweden.

This painting is a delightfully surreal take on the still life tradition, blending bold, simplified forms with quirky, dreamlike elements. The scene is playful, symbolic, and quietly strange—a fusion of everyday objects rendered with unexpected relationships and theatrical lighting.

The central object is a bright turquoise vase, strikingly vivid against the darker tones behind it. Surrounding the vase are five stylised green pears, arranged in a semi-circle, each casting exaggerated shadows. In the background, there’s a small arched window or doorway revealing a surreal landscape of red and ochre mountains under a light sky, creating a window into a different visual world.

The painting has a surrealist influence, reminiscent of artists like Magritte or de Chirico, where ordinary objects are placed in unusual contexts.

Executed in tempera, the work exhibits smooth, matte surfaces with crisp, clean edges. The artist embraces a distinctly modernist, slightly naïve style: simplifying forms, minimising perspective, and emphasising bold, graphic colour fields. The brushwork is controlled and even, lending a refined clarity to each element within the composition.

This tempera on board is presented in a gilt frame that elevates the work with a sense of classical elegance. The artwork is further enhanced by a sage green mount, which beautifully complements the warm tones of the table and pears while making the central blue vase pop even more. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The mount has marks to its bottom edge, and the frame has some slight wear to its corners but this does not detract from its overall attractiveness.

Table in Morning Light

Sold

SOLD

A serene mid-century interior scene that captures the elegance of simplicity and space, painted in oil onto canvas and dated 1959.

At its centre stands a slender pedestal table rendered with confidence: its form distilled to near abstraction, with a single dark object poised delicately upon it. The background suggests tall windows that filter pale light, dissolving into softly layered vertical strokes.

Executed in a restrained palette of misty greys, cool whites, and muted taupe, the painting exudes a hushed, meditative calm. The artist’s brushwork is deliberate and textural: short, square dabs of paint that build rhythm and depth while maintaining a sense of quiet restraint.

Minimal yet evocative, this work is a study in tone and balance: a poetic reflection on stillness, light, and the beauty found in pared-down form.

This oil on canvas is presented in a beautiful wood frame which adds character to the painting. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

Size: 81 x 66 cm (including frame)

The Seamstress

Sold

SOLD

A tender and expressive mid-century figurative scene, painted in oil onto canvas.

The painting depicts a woman seated on a wooden chair, bent gently over her sewing, with a classic black sewing machine resting on a sturdy wooden table before her. Her posture conveys concentration and routine – an everyday ritual rendered with warmth and familiarity.

The style is expressive and loose. Forms are suggested rather than defined, allowing the viewer’s eye to fill in the narrative. Soft, hazy outlines and impressionistic strokes give the composition a spontaneous, lived-in quality.

The colour palette is warm and muted: blush pinks in the woman’s blouse, soft greys and taupes in her skirt, browns and light neutrals in the surrounding interior. Hints of red in her shoes and subtle greens and yellows in the background bring gentle vibrancy to the scene.

Brushstrokes are confident and gestural – broad sweeps for the furniture, short textured strokes for fabric and hair, and looser scumbles to build the diffused light of the room. Together, they create a beautifully atmospheric study of everyday work, captured with grace and sensitivity.

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

Purple Blooms

Sold

SOLD

A refined mid-century interior still life painting that captures a bouquet of vivid purple flowers arranged in a clear glass vase, resting on a neatly folded napkin atop a coral-toned table, and executed in oil onto canvas.

The blooms radiate warmth and structure with their concentric circles and velvety textures. To the left, a cluster of green figs provides visual weight and organic contrast to the floral arrangement.

The composition is anchored by balanced geometry – a vertical vase, crisp edges of the napkin, and the gentle horizontal plane of the table – all of which play harmoniously against the soft verticals of the window and muted wall. The style is characteristic of mid-century modernist still life, embracing quiet elegance and considered simplicity.

The palette is restrained yet warm: dusty greens, deep purples, soft browns, and earthy coral tones. Brushwork is controlled yet expressive – blended in the background but more textured and sculptural in the rendering of the petals and fruit, offering depth and intimacy to this serene domestic scene.

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

Stillness in Blue Light

Sold

SOLD

A striking and uniquely textured mid-century interior still life that captures a moment of quiet elegance within an abstracted domestic setting, executed in oil and ink onto board.

At the heart of the composition is a white table rendered with gestural precision, holding a dark bowl of yellow fruit and a tall blue vase with two red flowers. The background unfolds in a layered wash of shadowy arches, pale teal walls, and textured architectural forms—suggesting a moody, introspective room awash with diffused natural light.

The artist has used a distinctive impasto technique, building up the surface with thick, expressive brushstrokes that carve out depth and texture, particularly in the arched doorway and floor reflections. A palette of deep ultramarines, smoky greys, siennas, and muted aquas sets an evocative, almost theatrical atmosphere. Linear incisions and palette knife work add to the painting’s sculptural quality, giving a sense of movement and tactile richness.

A quietly compelling composition that balances structure with emotion, light with shadow.

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

A lively mid-century interior scene painting that captures a vividly colourful and expressive depiction of a domestic space, executed in oil onto canvas.

The composition centers around a room with vibrant furnishings, including a wooden chair, a bookshelf filled with books, a yellow lampshade, and an adjacent room seen through an open doorway. The secondary room, bathed in bright light, hints at a more spacious and airy ambiance, in contrast to the cozy foreground.

The artist has used bold, angular brushstrokes and a palette dominated by deep blues, rich oranges, vibrant greens, and touches of yellow. The colours are juxtaposed with an intensity that emphasises both structure and warmth. The expressive, gestural brushstrokes add light texture and movement, giving the painting a lively, almost rhythmic feel. The painter’s loose yet deliberate approach to form and colour results in an energetic, spontaneous atmosphere.

Red Chair by the Fireplace

Sold

SOLD

A quietly atmospheric mid-century interior scene depicting a vivid red chair positioned beside a muted-toned fireplace, executed in oil onto board and dated 1957.

The composition captures a moment of stillness, where the bold hue of the chair punctuates an otherwise subdued setting. The artist has used a restrained palette of earthy browns, greys, and soft greens, allowing the red to command attention and become the focal point of the painting.

Executed in a characteristically mid-century modernist style, the work reflects a minimalist approach to form and detail. The brushstrokes are broad and expressive, revealing the texture of the paint and the artist’s deliberate layering technique. There is a clear sensitivity to balance and geometry, with the verticals of the wall and fireplace contrasting against the angled legs and curves of the chair.

Muted grey-greens and taupes dominate the background, providing a calm, contemplative atmosphere, while the saturated crimson of the chair injects energy and emotional warmth into the composition. The interplay between shadow and light, and the tactile surface of the paint, lend the piece a quiet intimacy that evokes both solitude and comfort.

This oil on board is housed in a beautiful wood frame with light oak grain and a gilt border, which pairs very well with the painting. Both the painting and frame are in excellent condition.

Seaside Promenade

Sold

SOLD.

A soothing mid-century coastal scene painting that depicts a group of figures strolling along the edge of a beach, framed against a vast expanse of sea and sky, executed in oil onto canvas.

The figures are loosely rendered, their forms blending into the shifting sands and soft spray of the tide, creating a sense of transience and movement. Two smaller figures appear in the foreground, suggesting a family outing or leisurely gathering at the water’s edge.

The painting is executed in a semi-impressionistic style, with broad, fluid brushstrokes capturing the energy of the ocean and the play of light across the water. The sky dominates the composition, filled with sweeping clouds in layered whites, greys, and soft blues, giving the scene a sense of both grandeur and atmosphere.

The palette is natural and harmonious – muted greens, sandy ochres, pale creams, and cool blues evoke the breezy, shifting qualities of a coastal landscape. The figures are touched with deeper, warmer hues, providing contrast and rhythm against the softer tones of sea and sky.

The brushwork is expressive and spontaneous, with textured layering that enhances the sense of movement in the clouds and the restless tide. The overall impression is one of fleeting beauty – a captured moment of everyday life along the shoreline, alive with atmosphere and painterly vitality.

Moonrise

Sold

SOLD

A nostalgic and evocative mid-century modernist style composition, executed in oil onto canvas by the established Swedish artist Fabian Lundqvist (1913-1989), whose works have been represented in many public collections in Sweden.

Two shadowy figures stand quietly before a row of houses, their silhouettes sharply framed by the glow of a pale, full moon. The architectural forms are simplified into clean geometric shapes, giving the scene a sense of quiet solemnity and timelessness.

Rendered in a muted palette of browns and warm taupe, the painting has a sepia effect and captures the hush of twilight with restraint. The sky, a seamless wash of greyish-brown, is interrupted only by the soft white orb of the moon, whose presence adds a haunting serenity to the composition.

The brushwork is smooth and controlled, with subtle tonal gradients lending depth and volume to the buildings and sky. Minimal yet expressive, the artist’s technique emphasises atmosphere over detail, creating a contemplative and emotionally resonant scene.

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

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.

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.

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.

The painting is housed in a well suited silver frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some scuffing as shown.

Study in Repose

Sold

SOLD

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.

Size: 30 x 20 cm (including frame)

Cubist Instruments

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
