A brilliantly executed mid century modernist composition in oil, painted onto canvas.
In this scene we see a group of fishermen around their boats by the docks. They appear to be waiting for something, or perhaps have just come back from sea and are discussing their catch before they return home. The painting has been executed in an expressionist manner – the brushstrokes are visible, moving in a myriad of directions, imbuing the painting with a sense of energy and dynamism. The colour palette is calming and tranquil, with blues and browns contrasting against white areas. This painting would look perfect in a nautical themed interior, or perhaps in a setting that is close to the sea.
The painting is housed in its original mid century wood frame which suits it beautifully. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

A beautifully expansive and panoramic mid-century landscape composition, painted in oil onto board.

The gentle brushstrokes bring forth 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.
The painting is housed in its original mid century wood frame with an inner linen border. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.
