  • The Yard

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A mid century Swedish landscape oil, painted in an expressionist manner. The artist has used bold, sweeping brushstrokes in the lower half of the picture, with areas of impasto (where the paint is applied thickly such that it stands proud from the surface), in rich earthy colours. This is juxtaposed with the softer, more delicate strokes he has used for the trees in the upper half of the picture, which skilfully conveys the movement of the leaves in the wind. A group of farm dwellings sit in the centre of the picture, balancing the overall composition. The artist has used the medium of oil to successfully convey the raw, weathered textures of the rural buildings.  The subtle, earthy colour palette of this painting would make it a good fit in many interior settings.

    The painting is housed in an elegant gilt frame that suits it perfectly. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Fields of Gold

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A striking expressionist mid century landscape in oil, painted onto canvas.

    Using a lively palette comprising shades of yellow, white, grey and touches of pink and green, the artist has used short and painterly brushstrokes to create this uplifting yet relaxing composition. A fence is depicted running through lush yellow fields, with a gate opening in the middle of the landscape.

    Upon having a close-up look at the painting, one can notice the artist’s display of painterly skills – as he wonderfully layers colours upon one another to create this outstanding and lightly textured composition.

    This oil on canvas painting is housed in a simple white painted wood frame, which suits it very well and gives it a slightly more contemporary edge. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition

  • Wetland

    Sold

    SOLD.

    An atmospheric and visually calming mid century landscape composition, painted in oil onto canvas.

    The artist reconstructs this nature wetland with a foggy feel in a semi-abstract manner through the use of a restrained palette, flattened forms and painterly brushstrokes.

    A calming mid-century modernist style landscape scene of a town, executed in oil.

    A row of white buildings sit in between 3 shrubs in the foreground, and a lush hill in the background.

    The artist has used a restrained muted earthy palette that consists primarily of green, brown and white shades to create this soothing atmospheric view.

    This oil on canvas is in very good vintage condition. It is housed in a gilt frame with an inner linen lining. The frame has some areas of scuff, and the linen lining on the frame has some age toning commensurate with age and in keeping with its style.

  • Pastel Valley

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A visually striking and uplifting modernist landscape composition, executed in oil in 1956.

    This atmospheric painting presents a scenic view of a pathway winding through lush trees and houses in a valley.

    Realistic details have intentionally been left out, as the artist reconstructs this landscape scene by reducing its forms down to coloured shapes and distinct brushstrokes.

    Blocks of contrasting muted pastel shades have been executed with expressive and painterly brushstrokes, imbuing the work with an energising feel whilst demonstrating depth and width to the painting.

    This oil on canvas is in excellent vintage condition. It is housed in a unique gilt and black frame that enhances the painting. There are minor areas of scuff and paint loss on the frame.

  • Chartreuse

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A mid century abstract modernist oil, painted onto canvas.

    Large gestural brushstrokes in rich earthy colours of green, brown and yellow have been applied to the canvas, creating a composition that takes its inspiration from the landscape. The sweeping of the brush work adds to the emotive impact of the painting and brings our attention to the materiality of the paint and the physical movement of the artist’s hand.

    The painting is housed in a simple gilt frame which plays off the colours of the painting brilliantly. There is an area of restoration to the top half of the painting, where surface paint loss appears to have been filled in (unless viewed closely, it looks like an area of impasto rather than a condition issue). There is light scattered craquelure present but the paint layer is stable overall.

    Sold

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A beautiful and picturesque mid century landscape, painted in oil onto canvas.

    A set of farmhouses line the middle of the composition, surrounded by a cold winter landscape. To the foreground is a wonderful layering and texturing of dark and white paint, perfectly capturing the essence of the snow covered ground. These bold, expressive brushstrokes contrast starkly with the winter trees, whose leafless branches have been painted with a much lighter hand. There is a stillness and quietness to this crisp, cold winter landscape painting that gives a lovely sense of calm.

    This oil on canvas is housed in an outstanding wide profile silver frame that really enhances the painting overall. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and there are minor scuffs to the frame.

  • Abstract City

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A small but outstanding mid 20th century oil painting of a cityscape, painted in an abstract manner.

    The artist has skilfully abstracted the city containing  buildings, foliage and a river down through the use of contrasting blocks of colours.

    Naturalistic shades comprising muted earthy tones of beige, green and blue fill the canvas; and the distribution of contrasting colours not only demonstrate a strong sense of depth to this painting, but make the work well balanced.

    Broad and expressive textured brushstrokes have been confidently executed, creating a raw textural effect and enhancing the painting overall.

    This gorgeous oil on canvas would certainly stand out in any interior, whether traditional or modern.

    The painting is housed in its original mid century wood frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Even

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A subtle and sombre mid-century abstract painting, rendered in oil.

    Horizontal planes of neutral colours painted with light sweeping brushstrokes lay across the canvas so harmoniously, enriching the painting with a calming and soothing aesthetic.

    Despite its abstract nature, the colour palette and composition of this stunning work could allude to a scene of wetlands on a cold and misty winter’s day.

    This oil on canvas is in overall good vintage condition. There are some areas of craquelure (fine cracks in the paint) in the painting. It is housed in a thin grey frame, that has some minor marks and scuffs.

  • Evening Walk

    Sold

    SOLD.

    An energetic and picturesque landscape on a cool blue summer’s day. The painting depicts rows of colourful buildings, and a bridge passing over a river in a charming city.

    Here, the artist has rendered rich and vibrant colours, that wonderfully capture the liveliness of the city.

    Painted in an impressionist manner, swift and spontaneous brushstrokes are evident, with each brush mark visible and distinct.

    Furthermore, the way the artist has captured the reflection of the building on the water surface with a painterly pattern of rhythmic strokes is simply outstanding.

    This oil on canvas is in good vintage condition. There are some areas of craquelure (fine cracks in the paint), that are not obvious unless inspected up close. It is housed in a robust wooden frame with a white inner lining. The frame has multiple areas of chips and paint loss commensurate for its age (as shown in the pictures).

    Sold

    Free UK Shipping Only.

    A  large and well executed mid century landscape in oil, painted on canvas.

    A large cottage centres the composition, with other outbuildings surrounding it, flanked by green trees. This cottage is probably located by the sea, as on the right side we can see the tops of masts of docked boats.

    This panoramic landscape is wonderfully calm and tranquil, with its expansive layout in deep blues and greens. Its long horizontal layout and restful composition would make it the perfect piece to hang above a bed. The painting has a thoroughly soothing effect.

  • The White Village

    Sold

    SOLD.

    Free UK Shipping.

    A very large and impactful mid century oil, painted on canvas. Painted with a modernist ethos, the artist has used flat planes of contrasting colour to create a sense of space and depth. Realistic details have been intentionally left out, and the artist has chosen to focus instead on shape, form and colour. Two figures stand in front of a group of village houses, which are flanked by trees on either side. The composition is very well balanced and a real pleasure to admire, both from afar and close up, offering layers of complexity both in terms of colour and structure.

  • Winter Path

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A simple yet captivating mid-century winter landscape, painted in oil onto canvas.

    A restrained palette of mellow tones have been used, capturing the solitude and cold of the season.

    Although the snow-filled pathway forms a large proportion of this picture, our eyes are drawn to the top right corner of the painting upon first glance. These darker shades of the trees first capture our attention, as our eyes then shift focus downwards of the painting as the colours transition to lighter shades.

    The artist has worked with the paint dynamically, as the textured painterly brushstrokes add a wonderful raw and textual quality to the overall composition.

    The painting is housed in a simple wood frame, which suits it very well.

  • In Nature

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A beautifully textured mid century abstract composition, painted in oil onto canvas and dated 1962.

    The artist has used thick layers of blended colour to build up this expressive composition. Areas of impasto (where the paint stands proud from the surface) can be seen across the surface of the canvas, giving it a three dimensional and sculptural effect. As we scan the picture, we can almost feel the artist working with his paint, applying thick viscous layers of oil with his brush and blending them together. This painterly style celebrates the medium of oil –  artist is revelling in the manipulation of the oil paint itself and making the fullest use of its sensuous properties.

    The painting is housed in a very complementary light wood frame with an inner white window. The painting has an area of light craquelure to the top left section (as shown in photos), but the paint is stable overall.

    Sold

    SOLD.

    An endearing and sentimental painting depicting a pair of birds amidst snow covered branches.

    Housed in a stunning and very complementary deep gilt frame, both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.

  • Sublime

    Sold

    Free UK Shipping Only.

    A stunning and emotive impressionist painting depicting a sunrise at sea, executed in oil in 1948. The artwork celebrates the beauty of nature, and is in reminiscent of works by British landscape painter JMW Turner.

    Through the careful use of light and colour, the painting displays the artist’s desire to capture the natural atmospheric elements and movement of water created at that particular moment in time.

    Combining both a warm and cool palette, one can notice warm light yellows and calming cool blues shifting across the painting. The effectiveness of lighting is achieved though the use of energetic and loose brushstrokes, invigorating the work a sense of dynamism.

    This oil on canvas is in good vintage condition. There are light scattered areas of craquelure across the painting commensurate with its age, but the paint is in very stable condition. It housed in its original mid-century gilt frame that has light wear, but this is in keeping with its overall look.

  • Above

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A typically mid century modernist abstract composition, painted in oil onto board.

    The artist has used a bold, earthy palette of deep greens, black, dirty yellows and punctuations of white.  Although largely abstract and very much subjective in terms of what we can discern, this piece seems to allude to a topographical night time scene of a village. White houses are dotted around amongst valleys and plains, but this rolling landscape has been flattened out by the artist, distorting the sense of space and depth. Whatever one is able to discern, at the crux of it, we see a very satisfying modernist composition of shape, form and colour juxtaposed.

    The painting is housed in its original mid century dark gilt frame with an inner white window. Both painting and frame are in very good condition. Please note that there is slight glare in some of the photos as they were taken under natural light.

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A restful mid-century landscape composition, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The painting depicts a panoramic view of an open agricultural field, with a row of houses surrounded by greenery situated in the distance.

    Expressive multi-directional brushstrokes fill the canvas, and the strong contrast of darker shades of brown used to paint the earth and the lighter shades of white and blue used to paint the sky makes the work well balanced.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary dark wood frame with an inner gilt window. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Twilight

    Sold

    SOLD.

    An expressive and dramatic mid century coastal landscape composition, executed in oil in a semi-abstract manner.

    Upon first glance, our eyes are drawn to the left side of the painting, where we see a house set within a rocky landscape. This crescendo in the composition then eases downwards as our eyes shift across the landscape towards to the right, where we then catch a glimpse of the sea and the horizon beyond. Our eyes are then carried upwards, towards the lighter but still very moody sky.

    Expressive and painterly brushstrokes fill the canvas, and the artist has used a restrained palette, focusing our attention on the dramatic composition. There is something nostalgic and mysterious about the piece that we think really sets it apart.

    This oil on canvas is in excellent vintage condition. It is housed in its original mid century frame with very detailed borders that draw our eyes inwards towards the painting.

  • Looking On

    Sold

    SOLD.

    Free UK Shipping Only.

    A very large and striking mid century oil on canvas, housed within a gorgeous wide profile wood frame.

    Broad, loose brushstrokes, vibrant colours, and narrative elements are all features of this large composition.  There are several details to notice in this expressive painting  – an archipelago boat sails on the water, with a large white bird swooping towards it. A small figure in black stands to the lower central section, and to the right edge we see a the side profile of a larger figure, looking on towards the scene.

    It seems that this is a memory of a scene that the artist has painted, rather than something that is taking place before him. The emotive style of brushwork and colour denotes an expression of feeling, rather than reality. The artist has gone beyond the depiction of external nature and has instead given form to an inner vision.

    The raw, almost unfinished appearance, combined with the swirls of paint in rich colours bears influences of the Norwegian expressionist painter Edvard Munch, who was also known to paint subject matter which was symbolist in content, depicting a state of mind rather than an external reality.

    The painting is housed in its original mid century frame which suits it perfectly. The frame shows off its wood grain beautifully, and is further enhanced by an inner gilt window. The painting is in good vintage condition, with some minor surface scuffs and marks typical for a piece of this age. The frame has some surface paint losses to the inner window.
