  • The Valley

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A typically mid century modernist oil on board, framed and ready to hang.

    Reminiscent of the landscapes of French painter Paul Cezanne, this large post-impressionist landscape of houses by the mountains carry those same distinctive repetitive and exploratory brushstrokes found in Cezanne’s work. The artist here reconstructs nature through purely painterly forms, flattening the space and using faceted brushstrokes. The planes of colour and small brushstrokes build up to form complex fields, creating a visual feast for the eyes.

    This well executed painting is housed in its original mid century gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some very minor scuffs which do not detract from its overall attractiveness.

    Size: 54 x 64 cm (including frame)

    This oil on canvas is beautifully framed in a grainy wood frame with an inner and outer gilt window. The painting is in overall very good vintage condition although there is a small area of minor craquelure (fine cracks in the paint) commensurate with its age.

  • By the House

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    The first of its type to be added to our collection, this unique artwork has been made through the use of dye on fabric (also known as batik).  Handmade by the established Swedish painter and sculptor Fabian Lundqvist, this striking artwork features geometric sections in contrasting colours of a restrained palette. The artist has used varying forms and shapes to create an abstracted image of a figure by a village landscape. The distinctive style and composition of this piece is typical of the artist’s oeuvre.

    The board on which the fabric is attached to is slightly uneven. There are some minor scattered surface marks to the fabric, typical for its age. The artwork is housed in a silver frame which has some minor scuffs to its edges.

  • Cadaqués

    Sold

    SOLD.

    An outstanding and nicely textured modernist city landscape, executed in oil. 

    The work presents an architectural view of Cadaqués, a town in Spain. Rows of white stone houses with areas of greenery form this panoramic view; and the artist has selected a wonderful earthy colour palette of brown, beige and green tones that imbues the work with a sense of calm. 

    The painting is a visual feast for the eyes – with areas of heavily applied paint creating a raw textural effect that captures the rough and granular nature of the stone on the buildings.

    This oil on canvas is in excellent vintage condition. It is housed in a robust wood frame with unique beige and red undertones. There is a small scuff to the top edge of the frame, but this does not detract from the painting.

    SOLD.

    An outstanding mid century modernist style oil painting presenting an every day scene of a neighbourhood

    Two figures can be seen strolling down a pathway, as rows of houses and lush greenery fill the rest of the painting.

    A muted earthy colour palette of reds, browns and greens have been used, capturing the warmth of this neighbourhood.

    The artist displays his painterly skills – applying dabs of thick paint swiftly onto the canvas to create a raw textural effect and instilling the work with an energetic feel.

    This oil on canvas is in excellent vintage condition. There is some surface paint loss to the edges of the frame (as shown in the images), but this suits the overall vintage style of the painting.

    A vibrant and energetic impressionist oil painting presenting a river canal flowing through lush greenery a summer’s day.

The artist has composed the scene in an impressionist manner, reminiscent of the famous garden party works by Pierre-Auguste Renoir.

    A quirky, cheery mid century oil of flowers on a window sill, painted onto canvas. Delicate white flowers sit in a decorative blue and red vase that is perched on a window sill, framed by yellow curtains. We can just make out the view out the window, where we see the tops of  several colourful buildings.

    The painting is housed in a gilt frame that suits it very well, and brings out the colours in the painting. There are small areas of paint loss and craquelure to the lower half of the painting (as shown in close ups), typical for an oil of this age, but these losses are fairly inconspicuous.

    A wonderfully framed abstract oil on board.

  • Misty Winter

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A subtle and sombre composition of a forest landscape, executed in oil in 1962.

    The solitude of winter is celebrated in this work, as it presents a vast snow-covered landscape filled with trees, as they fade into the distance.

    The artist has used a restrained colour palette; and together with the use of very fine and light brushstrokes – he has skillfully managed to create a lovely soft and misty effect, as well as a visual calm and stillness throughout the painting.

  • Tempest

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A moody, striking mid century landscape in oil, painted onto board. Painted in an expressive manner, we see broad and rhythmic brushstrokes applied to the surface to create this landscape scene. A loose flurry of brushstrokes to the upper half of the composition suggest temperamental overcast skies above – a storm beckons.  The artist has used a restrained palette and has left details of the landscape fairly obscure, which has resulted in this largely abstract composition.

    The painting is housed in a silver frame with visible wood grain, and both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • The Beach

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A gorgeous coastal scape featuring 2 boats left ashore, amidst luscious plants by a secluded beach.

    The artist has used a light and muted colour palette; and what is most striking is the visible and energetic brushstrokes that have been executed with so much confidence and certainty in directional flow to give rise to the various forms.

    The painting is framed in a unique and characterful wood and gilt frame with an inner linen lining. The grain of the wood frame has purposefully been left exposed under the gilt coating, adding a wonderful effect.

    Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Shapes

    Sold

    SOLD.

    This mid century oil painting shows distinct elements of cubist influences:  what appears to possibly be fishing nets drying along the coast have been reduced to simplified coloured shapes from different angles, resulting in a picture that appears fragmented and abstracted. Following the cubist ethos, the artist has broken down the landscape and the objects within it down into distinct areas, or planes. This has emphasised the two dimensional flatness of the canvas instead of creating the illusion of realistic depth.

    This oil painting is housed in a wide profile gilt frame that brings out the colours of the painting wonderfully. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Abstract Landscape

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A striking miniature landscape oil painting, executed in an abstract manner, painted in 1987.

    Upon first glance we notice the broad, expressive and textured brushstrokes filling up the canvas of this lively composition.

    As our eyes rest on the composition, we begin to take in the way in which artist has skilfully managed to abstract what appears to be a pleasant landscape (blue and purple skies in the background, lush greenery in the foreground) through the use of contrasting colours.

    This oil on canvas housed in a white box frame would make a lovely statement piece that would suit a shelf or a gallery hang perfectly. Both artwork and frame are in excellent vintage condition. The pins that have been used to fix the canvas onto the frame are visible around the outside edges of the frame, as shown in photos.

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A dynamic expressionist oil landscape painting of 2 figures strolling through a winding country road pathway on a fine autumn day.

    The painting has been executed in a semi-abstract manner, with swift and scribble-like brushstrokes used to depict the foliage and water stream.

    Although the energetic brushstrokes imbue the work with movement and energy, the beautiful autumnal and soft colour palette  brings an overall sense of warmth and tranquillity to the painting.

    This oil on canvas is in excellent vintage condition. It is housed in a distressed silver frame with red tints.

    Size: 69 x 81 cm (including frame)

  • Forest after Rain

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A fantastic abstract landscape, painted in oil onto canvas. This expressive painting beautifully and effectively captures the ‘essence’ of a wooded landscape. The artist has chosen not to paint in realistic details, and instead chooses to convey the feel of walking through the woods on what seems to be a rainy day. He has captured the life and dynamism of the natural landscape – his quick and expressive brushstrokes create a hazy, blurry feel, capturing the effect of wind and rain on the trees, bushes and ground.

    The painting is housed in a painted gilt frame, which suits it perfectly. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some paint losses around its edges, but this does not detract from the overall attractiveness of the picture, and if anything adds to its character.

  • Sunshine Road

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A beautifully executed and framed mid century landscape scene, painted in oil on to canvas.

    The artist has mastered his medium (oil), applying layers of colour that are luminous and fluid.  There is a distinct sense of playfulness here, where non naturalistic colours have given the landscape scene life, vibrancy and expression. We are able to analyse the application of the paint, layer by layer, giving us a glimpse into the artist’s process.

    The painting is very uniquely framed in its original mid century frame, which has a lovely wide profile. The outer and inner gilt windows are separated by a beautiful deep blue fabric lined border. The frame complements the painting wonderfully and really makes it stand out.

    The painting is in excellent vintage condition. There are some very minor scuffs to the frame, but it does not detract from the attractiveness of the painting.

  • Autumn Street

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A dynamic mid century oil of an autumnal scene painted in an expressionist manner. The artist has used large, expressive, multi-directional brushstrokes in a vibrant range of non-naturalistic colours to create the composition we see before us. Set under a blue and white sky with streaks of red, we see a row of houses surrounded by autumnal coloured trees. The artist has focused on the shape, form and line, intentionally leaving out realistic details. For example,  the trees have been paired down to brushstrokes of orange, red, yellow and brown, and no individual leaves can be seen. Flattened blocks of colours and thick bold lines have been used to create to a sense of space within the picture.

    The painting is housed in a gorgeous mid century wood frame with visible grain, and both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A mid century fauvist style oil, painted in 1950. Reminiscent of works by artists such as Matisse, this painting emphasises flattened forms, intense colourism, and decorative pattern.

    An elegant and brilliantly executed mid 20th century oil landscape presenting hidden views of a port, that contains elements of abstraction and minimalism.

  • Drift

    Sold

    SOLD.

    An outstanding and expressive mid-century abstract painting, rendered in oil.

    A restrained palette of warm and rich earthy and naturalistic tones of green and yellow fill the canvas – transitioning so seamlessly as well as 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 the natural landscape of grassy sand dunes on a beach.

  • Golden Light

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A confidently executed and beautifully textured mid century oil, painted onto canvas. This painting is both reminiscent of the post-impressionist style of artists like Van Gogh, as well as of Fauvist painters like  André Derain. It features thick, bold, undisguised brushstrokes in vibrant colours, and is very much a subjective, emotional response to the landscape (as opposed to just painting the landscape as realistically as possible). That being said, the artist has managed to strike a find balance between an emotional response and capturing the scene before him and how it looked. The combination of the texture and colouring of this painting makes it a stand out piece.

    The painting is housed in its original mid century grey frame, and an inner fabric lined border. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame. The painting is overall in good vintage condition although there are very small surface paint losses at the top of the work, but the paint is very stable overall.

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A small yet striking mid century oil on board depicting a row of figures and two boats by the shore.  This simple yet intriguing composition has been beautifully executed in an expressive manner.
