  • Cottage in the Meadow

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A scenic view of a cottage in the meadow, surrounded by tracts of grassland and hay fields.

    The joy and serenity of nature is widely celebrated in this artwork; and its lush landscape is so inviting, as one yearns to roam in the vastness of its glory, to connect with nature and reconnect with themselves.

    The artist has chosen to work primarily with 3 colours – green, brown and blue. Although it may seem limited, multiple shades from each colour have been used to bring the forms in this work to life. For example, we can spot lovely shades of pear green, pickle green, and seaweed green.

    What is equally interesting is that for each shade, there is a similar directional use of brushstrokes – making this landscape painting so unique.

    This artwork painted in 1945 is an oil on canvas, and is well presented in a brown wood frame, with a white mount that further accentuates its beauty.

    It is in excellent vintage condition.

    Size: 48 x 57 cm (including frame)

  • Green Angles

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A typically modernist style oil on board painted in 1956. Geometric shapes, formal lines and rigid angles of the buildings and trees contrast with the softer, rounded lines of the pair of figure silhouettes  in the forefront. Compositional depth has been achieved through the contrast and layering of flat planes of colour, rather than through the use of perspective. This cubist landscape is reminiscent of modernist painters such as Picasso and Braque.

    Size:  47 x 44 cm (including frame)

  • The Forest

    Sold

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A lovely tiny but mighty landscape scene of a forest painted in an abstract style. The artwork depicts nature in all its glory- with tall pine trees growing in the background, streams of water flowing through land, and fallen leaves on the lush foreground.

    Despite its miniature size this artwork is vibrant and striking, and can certainly add life to any corner in a home.

    This oil on canvas board is uniquely framed – the painting is affixed to a linen lined backing with a wood frame, adding a three dimensional quality to the piece.

    Painting size: 17 x 21cm

    Overall Size: 30 x 33 cm (including frame)

    Note: The photos used are not meant to be an accurate size representation of the artwork. Please check the dimensions before purchasing.

    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.

  • Children

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    The painting is housed in a beautiful wood frame with multiple borders, including a linen slip. Painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Yonder

    Sold

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A picturesque and panoramic view of a rural landscape, complete with cows, mountains and a lake.  A patchwork of green and golden fields rolls towards the pink and blue mountain. The cool palette with which the artist has painted the mountains communicates its solid physical hardness against the softer, warmer colours of the fields. The way in which the landscape has been formed, with its planes of colours,  rich earthy palette and bold outlines is reminiscent of works by the modernist painter Cézanne.

    The painting is housed in a robust and deep wood frame that has been painted with a beautiful green tint. Both painting and frame are in good vintage condition. The frame has some scuffs to its edges, commensurate for its mid century age.

  • The Climb

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An absolutely stunning oil depicting two figures walking through vast landscape. Scale here has been stretched to its utmost, with the human figures so small it is easy to miss them. The vast landscape is what fills most of this painting, reminding us humans of our position in the universe. We are but a speck. We feel a calming sense of awe when looking at this piece – its focus on nature emphasises its separateness and indifference to our humanly desires and concerns.

    This mid century painting is appropriately housed in a wide off white wood frame with gilt detailing. The painting is in excellent condition. The frame is very stable and in good condition overall but has some minor bumps (refer to photos), but these do not detract from the painting.

    Size: 52 x 60 cm (including frame)

  • Paris

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An absolutely stunning miniature impressionist painting of a view in Paris, most probably Montmartre. This original oil carries such confidence within its small frame. The artist shows off his skill, contrasting strong and heavily impasto-ed areas of thick paint (achieved through the use of a palette knife) with areas of detail and softer brushwork. The artist has managed to perfectly capture the sunlight pouring over the roofs of the grand buildings, and the city streets below.

    Housed in a thin gilt and linen-lined frame, this miniature oil is in excellent vintage condition.

    Painting Size: 16 x 13 cm

    Overall Size: 20.5 x 17 cm (including frame)

    Note: The photos used are not meant to be an accurate size representation of the artwork. Please check the dimensions before purchasing.

  • The Catch

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very large and vibrant oil painting on board with a wonderful array of details to notice. The painting almost ‘unfolds’ before  us as we look at it, with lots of individual areas of detailing becoming apparent as we let our eyes wander across the picture. At first glance we notice the main scene taking place in the foreground, where a group of fishermen surround their catch of the day. Then we start to notice the other activities taking place, such as the woman spinning yarn on the right, as well as the features of the cityscape beyond. Then, almost as if to surprise us, little animals along the lower border soon reveal themselves to us – the rabbit, frog, dog with bird in mouth, and duck. Even as the picture recedes, the artist has taken great care to paint in all the details, including the cranes and factories in the far distance.

    This wonderful painting with so much to offer measures 80.9 x 48.1cm. There are some areas of paint losses to the bottom of the painting but this would be easily covered by a frame.

    Size: 80.9 x 48.1cm

  • Moroccan Tales

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A captivating and expressive mid 20th century oil painting presenting an everyday scene of a lively local town in Morocco.

    The sky is beaming blue, and it is a scorching hot day, as the sun’s strong rays have illuminated the colourful line up of buildings and stalls, and the pathway.

    A group of Moroccan men can be seen passing through. They are dressed in turbans and djillabas, which is a long outer robe and is one of the most popular forms of traditional Moroccan clothing. Donkeys, which are an integral part of Moroccan life, are featured in this painting, as a man is depicted riding on one as his main mode of transportation.

    Moroccans are known for their warmth, openness and sociability, and this painting so wonderfully captures the essence of their nature- the rich and warm array of colours used in this painting is so vibrant and welcoming, and are harmonised extremely well together; and the expressionistic brushstrokes used imbue the painting with much vigor and liveliness.

    This oil on canvas comes in a unique vintage grey wooden frame with a linen slip.

    Size: 63.5 x 74.5 cm (including frame)

  • The Harvest

    Sold

    SOLD

    A very finely executed modernist painting of 4 farmers in an open agricultural field, harvesting lush crops of wheat.

    The artist has confidently executed the work with bold and expressive brushstrokes, skilfully separating the sky, forest and field through different plains of earthy colours.

    The painting is framed in a unique and characterful wood and gilt frame with an inner maroon velvet 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.

    Size: 61x 71 cm (including frame)

  • Lakeside

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A tranquil landscape scene of a lakeside, painted in 1955.

    A figure has walked through the woods and is taking a moment to sit down by the edge of a lake. In front of him stretches an open lake – a peaceful, serene open view where he can be alone with his thoughts.

    The swift yet soft brushstrokes in this oil wonderfully captures this tender moment, reminding us of the power of nature in helping us to heal and recharge.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame with a linen lining. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • The Farmhouse

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    This post impressionistic painting is a fine example of the way in which an artist can celebrate the material properties of the medium of oil. Urgent, rough and bold brushstrokes are accentuated by thick, short, colourful, blocky bursts that add a sense of youthful energy. Here the artist has banished preconceived notions about object and colour from his or her mind (such as grass being just green), and has instead painted the colour hues and tones as seen in that particular moment in the natural light.

    The ruggedness of the landscape is almost mimicked by the way the artist has applied the paint, where you can almost see the bristles of the brush and the heavy-handedness in the application, giving the painting a visual palpability.

    The strong colours and brushwork are complemented by the robust greyish-green  mottled frame, within which the painting is housed. The painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition, with only very minor scuffing to the frame.

    Size: 54 x 72 cm (including frame)

  • Horses

    Sold

    RESERVED

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A stunning mid 20th century artwork of nature at its finest, painted in 1951. A pair of horses graze on grass amongst a vast open meadow.

    The soft yet precise brushstrokes and bright pastel colours create an air of peacefulness and serenity. Overall, the blocks of colours and brushstrokes in this work flow impeccably –  leading our eyes gently from foreground to the background where the open sea and blue sky lie beyond in the horizon.

    This oil on canvas is in very good vintage condition. There is a small surface scratch on the top edge of the frame which is only noticeable when viewed up close. The paintings is well presented in a complementary silver frame.

    Size: 62.5 x 73.5cm (including frame)

  • A Fresh Morning

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An excellently executed 20th century landscape artwork depicting a house tucked behind a stone wall, partially hidden by lush greenery and set against a clear blue sky.

    In this work, the artist has skillfully used blocks of colours in contrasting shades to give rise to the various forms as such the trees and stone wall; and the selection of more than 8 different hues of vibrant green imbues the work with so much freshness.

    With the use of visible painterly brushstrokes, one is able to get a sense of the natural beauty and rough nature of the limestone wall; and through the use of expressive brushstrokes executed in a diagonal manner to paint the greenery, one can get a sense of movement and freedom in this work, of the strong wind blowing in the air, causing the leaves to sway.

    The work comes well-presented in a thin champagne gold frame, and is in excellent vintage condition.

    Size: 42.5 x 53 cm (including frame)

  • The Village

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    With its sandy desert tones and visually pleasing composition, this small painting has a wonderful mellowness to it.  This scene of one of the White Villages in Spain shows off the region’s old white lime walls and brown tiled roofs. In this region the climate is known to be mild, and the tones and hues used in this painting capture that mildness of this quiet village perfectly. To add interest, the artist has included a donkey cart and driver strolling casually along, about to make their way back into the village after a long day’s work.

    This wonderful piece in oil is by Swedish artist Hans-Erik Öberg, painted in 1963. It is housed in a very well suited wood frame with a linen slip. The painting is in excellent condition, and there are minor scuffs to the frame.

    Size: 37.5 x 45.5cm (including frame)

  • Golden Hour

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A really striking and textured panoramic landscape in oil. The painting features areas of impasto (where the paint is thickly applied, creating a three dimensional effect) as well as sgraffito ( scratching through a surface to reveal a lower layer of a contrasting colour), creating a wonderful array of techniques and textures.

    The oil has been painted on wood, which has then been fixed to a wood backing which is ready to hang. The painting is in good vintage condition, with some paint losses to the outermost corners that do not detract from the painting.

  • Staying In

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A restful depiction in oil of a young lady perched on a balcony edge, flanked by columns on either side. She has a book in her hand, but appears to be looking towards us. There is an air of peacefulness around her – the warm rays of the sun spread gently from behind, finding their way through the soft leaves of the trees behind, lighting up the pages of her book. A vase of pink flowers sit on the balcony on the other side, providing a sense of balance to the composition of this picture and add a wonderful pop of colour.

    The painting is framed beautifully in a lilac frame, picking up on the colours of the columns.

    Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

  • Soar

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A delicate oil on canvas depicting an eagle soaring in the sky, gliding through wheat fields with such poise.

    This composition is highly well-balanced, with the area of the sky and the land having equal visual weight.

    Although this bird of prey possesses impressive strength, and is known as one of the most powerful birds on the planet, the artist has chosen to capture its soft side – as there is so much lightness and grace is this composition. The use of fine and smooth brushstrokes imbue the work with a feel of gentleness; and the warm pastel colour palette create feelings of earthiness and calmness.

    The artwork comes with a light wood frame with a gilt inner window, which pairs extremely well with the painting, enhancing it further. Painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    Size: 52.5 x 60.5 cm (including frame)

  • Lazy Sunday

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    This stunning oil painted in an impressionist style is reminiscent of works by Monet and Auguste Renoir. In this charming and pleasurable scene of a lady with her parasol drifting down the river in a long boat, we see brushwork that is rapid and broken into separate dabs in order to render the fleeting quality of light.

    The painting is housed in an ornately moulded vintage gilt frame, and is in excellent vintage condition.

    Size: 40.5 x 56cm (including frame)

  • The Swans

    Sold

    A wonderful study of 2 white swans grazing in a lush garden, set against a historical building.

    On this fine morning in Spring, a graceful pair of swans have just emerged from the nearby lake, and have come to the lawn to nibble on grass. With no one else in sight, they are roaming freely in the area, with not a worry in the world.

    The artist has selected a beautiful naturalistic and earthy colour palette in this work; and has creatively dabbed a mix of clay, beige and sand colours to render the rough and granular nature of stone on the historical building.

    He has also painted the grass in a similar fashion – using different shades of green and some hints of beige to highlight its dense appearance.

    This mid 20th century painting is an oil on canvas, and is signed on the lower right.

    It is complemented by its gilt frame, and measures 73.5 x 62.5 cm (including frame)

  • The Lookout

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free domestic (UK) shipping. As this painting is very large, it is unlikely that we will be able to ship it internationally. If you are very interested and are located outside of the UK, contact us and we will see what we can do.

    A very large and very vibrant oil that would definitely make for an eye-catching feature piece in any interior. The artist has explored the use of colour to its full effect, using bold and rhythmic brushstrokes that set your eyes dancing. Strong outlines and saturated colour in oil form wonderful patterns, reminiscent of the fauvist works by artists such as Henri Matisse.

    The subject matter too is thoroughly heart warming – a family of 3 walk to the end of a path, taking in the view of the open sea through a gap in the luscious trees, as the surrounding landscape wraps them in a colourful and playful embrace.

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    This idyllic oil painting of a pastoral landscape is the epitome of tranquillity and calm. A group of birds soar overhead , leading our eyes over the expanse of warm yellow fields towards the silhouettes of trees and cottages, and then further into the mountains beyond. The composition is very well balanced, with the sky and land taking up equal proportions, adding to the sense of harmony and expansiveness within the picture. A tractor is seen in the foreground – its purple colouring contrasting wonderfully with the warmer hues of the yellow field.

  • Acres

    Sold

    Free shipping to Europe, UK and Singapore.

    The serenity of nature is widely celebrated in this artwork, as it presents a landscape scene taken in Österlen – a region in Sweden well known for its natural environment.

    What is striking is the horizontalness in the work – with the vertical plains drawn, almost stacked on one another – giving depth to the work.

    Despite being just a viewer to this painting, the stillness and calmness radiating from the work is so powerful, that one can be easily transported to zen state of mind.

    The painting comes in its original unique frame that suits the painting perfectly. There are minor scuffs to the frame, but this is in line with its age and vintage charm.

    Size: 45 x 53cm (including frame)

  • By the Boardwalk

    Sold

    SOLD

    This charming artwork of a boardwalk set against a river by a coastal town brings so much lightness and serenity to one’s heart.

    It is a cloudy day, and thick clouds have filled the light blue sky. The wind is blowing strongly in the air – causing the lush greenery in the background to sway, and making the water’s surface uneven.

    This gouache painting is uniquely characterised by wonderful blocks of colours as well as broad and textured brushstrokes. Through this, the artist has been able to skilfully produce forms in a somewhat distinct yet abstract manner; and the sweeping motion in which the brushworks have been applied breathe so much life and vigour to the overall artwork.

    It is housed in white card mount and a blue stained wood frame which picks up on the colours within the painting beautifully. The painting is glazed (there is a layer of perspex between the frame and the painting) to ensure longevity.

    Size: 56 x 48cm (including frame)

  • Fall Foliage

    Sold

    A breathtaking scene depicting a pathway through the forest on a fine autumn day, as the air is twirling with joy.

    The foliage, painted in bold and vibrant orange and green hues are so alive and merry; and the artist has used an impasto technique – applying thick layers of paint with forceful brushwork to give the artwork a three dimensional feel.

    This artwork is an oil on board, and is in excellent vintage condition. It comes well presented in a white wooden frame.

    Size: 29 x 24.5 cm (including frame)

  • Pasture

    Sold

    Many of us have fallen into a way of life that suffers from too much intensity, stimulation and distraction. Work is frantic, our email inboxes are clogged, and there is hardly time to reflect on anything.

    This beautifully calm and serene landscape with grazing sheep allows us the chance to resume contact with a more solitary, thoughtful self that otherwise eludes us. It draws out our peaceful side and encapsulates a value of gentleness. The unpretentious simplicity of sheep nestled within a cool autumnal meadow encourages a modest, tender hearted happiness, far away from the stresses of life.

    This confident yet sensitively hand-painted oil is wonderfully presented in a well suited gilt frame, and its classic style would fit in well with any interior. In excellent vintage condition.

    Size: 24 x 29cm (including frame)

  • The Port

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    This bright expressionist oil depicting a harbour scene is wonderfully dynamic. Quick brushstrokes, heavy impasto and a vibrant colour palette lend themselves well to capturing the hustle and bustle of the busy dock at daytime. Surrounding the picture stand tall warehouses that have been built to serve the harbour, smoke bellowing from their chimneys. In the foreground merchants trading their goods scurry along. A white sailing ship with its tall mast is docked in the middle of the picture – its sailor just about to to disembark down the ladder.

    This original oil is by Finish/Swedish artist Kurt Erik Heinonen was born in 1915 and died in 1983. This piece is typical in style and subject for Heinonen, who often used a palette knife with strong clear colouring, mainly painting the west coast region of Sweden with views of fishing harbours with boats.

    The painting is housed in a gorgeous distressed frame wood and cream frame, showing off its wood grain beautifully.

    Size: 68 x 59 cm (including frame)
