  • 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.

  • The Fortress

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A bold and striking mid-century modernist style landscape composition of a hidden fortress, rendered in oil.

    Distinct, urgent and and bold brushstrokes have been executed in an invigorating and confident manner; and the bold outlines on the trees, fortress and bridge further accentuates its three dimensional qualities.

    A rich and restrained colour palette comprising varying shades of green, cream and black have been used; and the artist has wonderfully layered and paired contrasting shades to not only demonstrate a sense of depth and space, but also to add a lovely textural effect with the thick application of paint.

    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.

    Size: 57 x 84 cm (including frame)

  • Al Fresco

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A delightful  oil painting depicting figures dining al fresco on a bright summer’s day with blue skies. Colourful blooms and brightly coloured parasols are featured in this vibrant and cheery picture. The background of buildings and greenery has also not been spared from colour, laying out an array of details for our visual pleasure. The thick and chalky paint texture creates a matte finish that adds a brightening effect,  inviting us in to take a seat, and perhaps order a cup of tea and a slice of cake.

    Housed in a robust greyish-purple frame with a linen lined wooden slip, the painting and frame are in very good vintage condition. There is a nick to the top left edge of the frame which is not visible  from the front.

  • By the Boats

    Sold

    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. The artist has used distinct brush strokes with areas of impasto (where the paint is applied thickly such that it stands proud from the surface) to create this well balanced composition in oil. He has focused on shape, form and line rather than realistic details of the scene. There is a calming, almost innocent like effect to this painting which makes it a pleasure to look art.

    The painting is housed in its original mid century wood frame with an inner fabric lined border, which suits it very well. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The edges of the frame have a few minor scuffs, but this is typical for a frame of this age.

  • Jerez

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A small but brilliantly executed abstract cityscape in oil of the city of Jerez in Southern Spain, by Swedish artist Ivar Morsing, painted in 1958. A deep, rich and earthy palette of browns, dark greys and greens give this picture its punch. Contrasting blocks of saturated colour have been applied to the surface, illustrating the artist’s cubist influences, which he is most known for. This gorgeous semi-abstract painting in oil would certainly stand out in any interior, whether traditional or modern.

    The painting is housed in its original mid century greyish-brown wood frame with an inner fabric lined window. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Passing Time

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    With a playful colour palette and a semi abstract composition, this vivid oil on board depicts two figures lazing on the grass, with what appears to be hills/meadows behind them. Both figures appear comfortable and relaxed, with the one on the left holding a flower in her hand, and the figure on the right lying down beside her caught up in his own thoughts. There is a sense of time passing slowly – neither figure is in a rush to leave, and yet it looks like they have been there for a while.

    This painting could almost be a reminder or keepsake of the memories of lockdown, when sitting in a park or field was the only outdoor activity one could do!

    The painting is housed in a hessian lined frame with an inner white border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some very minor scuffing to the edges.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a wood frame that has been stained dark gold. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some minor scuffs but this is  commensurate with its age and suits the overall rustic quality of the painting.

    A gorgeously rustic mid century oil on board. This rural landscape scene features a panoramic composition, deep rich colouring, and lots of texture. A row of white cottages with black roofs are nestled amidst the rolling fields, and a long country road can be seen passing through the centre of the composition.

    The painting is housed in a wood frame that has been painted black, which suits the painting perfectly. There is some general age wear to the picture and frame, but this does not detract from the attractiveness of the piece, and if anything adds to its rustic charm.

Although largely abstract in composition, the artist has still skilfully alluded to a calm coastal landscape, which adds to the sense of calm in this moody painting.

  • Outland

    Sold

    SOLD.

    An earthy, rustic picture of a rural landscape painted in oil onto board. The artist shows off his painterly technique, using broad, expressive, and textured brushwork  to paint the rural landscape in all its glory. He has managed to capture the raw quality of the provincial scene through his use of colours, strokes and textures.

    Our eyes are at first drawn to the cottage, but are then directed upwards to the sky and then to the green trees on the left. Finally we are left to rest on the lower section of the picture, where the artist has softened the palette and loosened the sections, creating an almost abstract composition.

    The painting is housed in its original wide profile mid century frame, which is of as much character as the painting itself. It has a linen covered border and and inner gilt and wood window. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The gilt edging on the frame has some minor scuffing but otherwise the frame is in good and stable condition overall.

The frame truly brings the small landscape to life, with its inner beading drawing our eyes in toward the centre, where we notice small and fine brushstrokes in calming tones of green, white, grey and blue. The deep profile of the frame adds a ‘window’ like effect, and its silvery mottled edges outline the overall picture wonderfully.

    The oil painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some minor paint loss and scuffs to the edges, most of which has been restored.

    Painting size: 11 x 14.5 cm

    Miniature paintings are often overlooked treasures. Their small size means they can fit into an array of small spaces, adding interest to nooks and crannies. They can be displayed on a bookshelf or kitchen shelf, either standing on a mini easel or leant against other objects/books. If added to a group display, these small pieces act as a wonderful contrast to bigger pieces, and can add ‘punctuation’ to the group hang.

    SOLD.

    A tranquil and panoramic lake scene, painted in oil onto board. Confident, expressive brushstrokes in rich colours have been applied to create this painting of a lake by a forest.

    The painting is housed in a simple white wooden frame, and is in very good vintage condition.

  • Fields of Barley

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A beautiful, picturesque mid century oil painting on canvas, painted in 1935. The artist has used thinned down oil in large sections, creating a lovely soft, hazy effect throughout the painting. On the forefront of the image in the lower section, he has painted with more texture, creating a palpable three dimensional effect, with the background fading into the distance.  Earthy greens and browns combined with golden hues of yellow create this mellow, subtle composition that is such a pleasure to look at.

    A tranquil and well executed mid century oil painting, rendered in an abstract and geometric style.

  • Abstract Bridge

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A large and semi abstract mid century oil on canvas, painted in 1966.

    We can be forgiven for not being able to see the subject pictured here as the artist has simplified the forms into flattened shapes so dramatically that the painting looks almost fully abstract at first glance. He has used large blocks of juxtaposing colour in a multi-directional, expressive style to create this lively composition. As our eyes begin to get accustomed to the view before us, a river bridge slowly begins to reveal itself. This transitional effect between abstraction and reality and vice versa makes this painting wonderfully interesting to look at, and encourages us to move between different viewing modes.

    The painting is housed in a robust wood frame which suits it perfectly. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • An Encounter

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A lovely mid century oil painting depicting 2 figures, seemingly in conversation, in a quiet neighbourhood.

    The painting has been executed in a semi-abstract manner through the use of visible and painterly multi-directional brushstrokes.

    The artist has thoughtfully selected contrasting colour palettes – from light pastel shades in the foreground, to vibrant greens and blues in the background. This build up of colours balances the painting very well – instilling both a sense of calm as well as excitement.

    This oil on canvas is in excellent vintage condition. It is housed in a champagne coloured frame that has some slight scuffing, typical for its age.

  • Azure

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A soulful abstract painted in oil onto canvas, featuring rich azure blues and a deep palette. Though largely abstract, we are able to discern elements of the natural landscape. The artist has used distinct and expressive brushstrokes, creating wonderful texture through the medium of oil. The painting has a very emotive effect, due to the colour palette used as well as the dynamism of the strokes. The artist has made a concerted effort to capture the spirit and essence of the landscape, as opposed to its realistic features.

    The painting is housed in a very complementary silvery grey frame with a very unique inner velvet lining in blue which picks up on the palette of the painting beautifully. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    Sold

    SOLD

    A beautiful expressionist oil of the landscape of Varengeville, a commune in the Normandy region in northern France. Featuring prominently in this composition is the small church of Saint-Valery, which sits by the side of the cliff along the Alabaster coast, under the early morning light. Interestingly, the churchyard holds the tomb of the Cubist artist Georges Braque, who was inspired and mesmerised by Varengeville and lived there for many years. In this painting, the artist has used a wonderful array of light and pastel colours to capture the landscape, creating a post impressionist feel.

  • Croft

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A calm, earthy mid century rural landscape oil, painted on to board in 1947. The artist has used expressive, painterly brushtrokes in earthy and warm tones of green, brown, beige and blue to create this tranquil landscape. He has included areas of impasto (where the paint is applied thickly such that it stands proud from the surface) to create depth and texture within the painting. The way he has used expressive strokes lends an abstract quality  to this mid century oil.

    The painting is housed in a cream coloured wood frame. Both painting and frame are in good vintage condition with no major losses.

  • Fjords

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    Painted in 1951, this gorgeous oil depicts the landscape of the fishing village of Reine in Lofoten, Norway. Lofoten is known for its breath-taking scenery, which has been captured by the artist in a very personal way. Rather than a realistic depiction of the Arctic ocean and its peaks, the artist has brought into focus the colourful fishing sheds that contrast wonderfully against the snowy landscape.  There is a wonderful playfulness to the palette, composition and brushstrokes, and the way in which the artist has abstracted the scenery.

    This large painting is housed in its original mid century distressed light grey frame. The painting is in very good vintage condition. The frame has some paint losses to its edges, as shown in the photos, which are typical for its age.

  • Holiday Town

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An outstanding and lively mid century cityscape by a Mediterranean coast, painted in oil in 1964.

    Lush tall palm trees and colourful buildings fill the streets, and the sun shines its rays on this scorching hot day.

    This large and well-executed painting draws on a range of modernist concepts and influences including cubism and abstraction. As we spend time to study its colours, forms and play on geometric shapes, there is more than meets the eye.

    Blocks of contrasting bold colours that harmonise  well together have been used to give rise to the various forms, and we can feel the strong energetic vibe of this town from the sweeping and confidently executed brushstrokes.

    This oil on board  has some light surface scratches (close ups are included in the photos above) but is in good condition overall. It is housed in a complementary wood frame with a an inner gilt window
