  • Gentil

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A soothing mid century lake landscape in oil, painted onto canvas.

    Soft pastel colours have been applied in an expressive manner, creating a composition of a calming lake scene. There is almost a watercolour-like effect, where the artist has managed to very skilfully capture the reflective nature of the water. The artist has also captured the effect of light and movement in the landscape, giving us the sense that he has painted the picture ‘en plein air’ (the practice of painting a picture outdoors).

    The painting is housed in a simple wood frame which complements it beautifully. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Red Houses on a Hill

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A striking and atmospheric mid-century modernist landscape painting, executed in oil onto canvas.

    Depicting red houses on a hilly landscape, there is a beautiful colour contrast to the top and bottom half of the painting – with calm lighter shades of white and blue used to depict the sky at the top, and moody darker shades used to depict the houses and landscape at the bottom half of the painting. In each section, the artist has skilfully mixed and layered respective shades to form this stunning composition.

    There is an expressiveness in the way in which the artist has painted this scene – with powerful brushstrokes sweeping across the canvas in an almost forceful manner, leaving a smooth yet textured finish on the surface.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a stunning wide-profiled wood frame with visible grains. The painting has some areas of paint loss which are visible in the photos, although this paint loss looks almost intentional due to the style of the painting, so does not in any way detract from the overall attractiveness of the piece. The frame is in very good vintage condition.

    Set in front of the blue sea is a fishermen mending his boat. Flanked to his left and right are sheds that give the composition its structure.

The artist has used broad brushstrokes with areas of texture, giving this painting its sense of depth. The angular lines of the forms of the outcrop juxtapose wonderfully with a softer, more rounded forms of the greenery.

    The painting is housed in its original mid century frame with several windows, efficiently drawing our attention inward towards the painting. The painting is in very good vintage condition. The frame has some very minor scuffing, typical for its age.

  • Triptych

    Sold

    Free UK, Europe and Singapore shipping.

    A mid century abstract modernist composition in oil, painted in 1950.

    This striking abstract composition features a very loose relationship to the visible world. Instead, it forces the viewer to focus on the qualities of form, line, colour, brushwork and composition.

    What loosely appears to be an interior scene has been schematised and simplified into geometric shapes and gestural marks. Yet even though it is largely divorced from recognisable reality, the forms within this picture are still expressive and have the power to stir aesthetic emotion.

    The painting is housed in a simple light wood frame that suits it very well. Both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.

  • Colour Coast

    Sold

    SOLD.

    An energetic and expressive mid-century oil on canvas depicting an abstract coastal landscape scene.

    Simple yet effective in its composition, we see a scenic view of a coastal trail with hills in the background.

Through the use of vibrant colours and swift painterly brushstrokes, the artwork has a very uplifting quality to it.

  • Dockside

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A beautifully ambient and atmospheric mid century modernist landscape in oil, painted onto canvas.

    To the foreground of the composition, a set of railway tracks create a sense of depth and lead our eyes inwards into the picture, where we are met by a set of shipping cranes. To the left of the composition we see a ship docked, and figures underneath the crane. The artist has used a restrained colour palette, focusing on an array of blues, greens and greys to create this wonderfully misty and moody scene. He has used blocks of colours and bold outlines to create the forms and shapes within the picture that give the picture its depth. We get a sense that it is early morning by the harbourside, before the fog has lifted.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a stunning  linen lined frame with an inner window. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Green Land

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A beautifully expansive and panoramic mid century oil, painted onto board.

    A row of farmhouses lines the lower section of the picture, followed by fields above that pan out in to the distant horizon. We get a sense that the fields are never-ending, and that this calming scene before us goes on undisturbed for miles and miles.

    The artist has used a restrained colour palette, reserving the bolder greens and browns for the lower section of the picture, then getting increasingly lighter as he moves up the picture, until the sky which mimics the lightest greens of the fields.

    There is a palpable sense of serenity and restfulness with this picture – the type of feeling you get when you’re out in the rural countryside, away from the hustle and bustle of city life..

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A warm and embracing mid century modernist oil composition, painted onto canvas.

    Falling under the umbrella of ‘genre painting’ or ‘narrative art’, this wonderful painting tells us a story. A group of people sit around a fire, watching a man in a hat play the guitar.

  • Fishermen at Dawn

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A very well executed and distinctly mid century modernist oil composition, painted onto board.

    With cubist tendencies, the artist has fragmented the scene into a series of curved shapes and lines, almost as though we are looking at the scene through broken glass.  The structure of the nets that the fishermen are laying out continues into clothes of the men as well as the surrounding sea and sky. This modernist ethos focuses on formal qualities such as shape, line, form, colour and pattern. The recurring lines and patterns make it fun to spot particular details that could easily go unnoticed unless observed closely, such as  the birds in the sky as well as the boats to the left of the composition.

    The painting is housed in a lovely wood frame with visible grain. Both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.
