A large and serene mid-century modernist painting that captures a vast landscape rendered with bold, expressive brushwork and simplified forms, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1946.
At the centre of the composition, a red-roofed house sits nestled among rolling green hills, with winding white paths leading toward the horizon, where a band of deep blue suggests the presence of the sea.
The artist has abstracted natural elements into rhythmic, geometric shapes – trees, hills, and fences are distilled into confident planes of colour. A soft yet vivid palette of greens, yellows and blues bring a lyrical quality to the scene. Expressive painterly brushstrokes lend a sense of movement and spontaneity, evoking the energy of the landscape rather than a literal depiction.
With its dynamic composition and modernist interpretation of the countryside, this painting evokes both nostalgia and vitality – a quiet moment brimming with form and colour.
This large oil on canvas is housed in a complementary gilt frame. There are some minor age-related spots visible in the cloud area of the painting, otherwise it is in good vintage condition. The frame shows signs of wear, including areas of paint loss as shown.

A large and very well executed mid century modernist harbour scene, painted in oil onto canvas.
This composition depicts a harbour view at night, with the moon casting its light on the boat, buildings and figures. The artist has used the contrasts of shape, colour and form to his advantage to create this modernist scene. The silhouettes of the boats and buildings have been very cleverly outlined with white, and the reflection of the moon can be seen on the water in yellow. In the forefront we see figures also standing in the reflection of the light, which has been painted in white. Towards the right we see a warm glow from the window of a house. This nostalgic composition captures the beauty of the night by the water wonderfully.
The painting is presented in a very complementary slim gilt frame, which illuminates the painting. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some minor scuffing.

A very large 21st-century abstract painting that captures a rhythmic visual language of geometric forms and gestural marks, executed in oil on canvas.
At almost 1.2metres wide, this composition is set against a soft, muted sage green background, interwoven with an intricate network of white linear glyphs—some suggesting architectural schematics, others evoking primitive symbols or abstract cartography.
The artist has used a flat, matte surface treatment for the background, allowing the crisp white markings to emerge with clarity. The brushstrokes are confident and uniform, creating a sense of order amidst the apparent spontaneity. The overall style leans toward minimalistic abstraction, influenced by both modernist mark-making and contemporary urban semiotics.
This piece invites the viewer to decipher its quiet codes, encouraging contemplation of structure, language, and spatial memory.
This large oil on canvas is housed in a complementary and well made light wood tray frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

A large, striking and very well balanced abstract composition, painted in oil with areas of collage.
This painting features a dynamic interplay of geometric shapes and layered textures, rendered in a muted, earthy palette with bursts of colour.
The dominant tones are cool greys and greens, softened with washes of white and dusty blue, punctuated by vibrant rusty oranges, ochres, and pale pinks. Angular shapes interlock and overlap, creating a sense of movement and fragmentation. There is a textural richness to the surface, likely from mixed media or layered paint application—some sections are soft and diffused, others sharp and defined.
The painting fits within the realm of modernist abstraction, echoing influences from Cubism and Abstract Expressionism. It evokes a sense of organic structure and emotional intensity, while remaining non-representational—there are no identifiable objects, allowing the viewer to explore form, space, and rhythm freely. The mood is contemplative and complex, suggesting inner tension or transformation.
This is a piece that invites close viewing and personal interpretation, offering new shapes and meanings the longer one looks.
The painting is presented in white tray frame, which suits it perfectly. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

A whimsical and characterful mid-century naïve style street scene composition that captures the vibrant rhythm of daily life in a French village, painted in oil onto board.
The composition is alive with loosely rendered figures – vendors, villagers, and a donkey – all set against a colourful streetscape adorned with signage. The figures, painted in exaggerated forms, convey the artist’s playful yet perceptive take on character and movement.
Executed in a bold, expressive hand, the painting features flat planes of colour and simplified shapes, hallmarks of post-war European modernism. The palette is both earthy and joyful, with muted greens and blue punctuated by occasional splashes of red, yellow, and teal. Brushstrokes are thick and direct, lending the work a light tactile presence and raw immediacy.
This oil on board is housed in a very well-suited wood frame with an inner linen and gilt border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has very minor scuffing.

A very large and striking 21st-century abstract geometric painting, executed in oil on canvas.
This mesmerising painting is composed entirely of triangular shapes arranged in a tight, grid-like pattern. The triangles are painted in a restricted but bold palette of black, dark brown, white, and a soft cream, which creates a strong visual rhythm and contrast across the canvas. There is a visual order but the subtle shifts in orientation and colour prevent it from becoming monotonous.
The stark contrast between deep browns, black, and crisp white creates strong visual impact, but the occasional soft cream triangle adds warmth and breaks the binary, giving the eye a place to rest.
From afar the painting looks clean, precise and monotone. But as you move toward it and study its intricacies, you begin to realise the range of colours and the visible brushstrokes, which further enhances the fact that this is indeed a hand painted piece with more subtle details that are not immediately obvious at first glance.
The restrained colour scheme enhances sophistication. It feels modern and timeless, making it versatile in a range of settings from minimalist homes to design-forward spaces.
This large oil on canvas is housed in a very well suited black frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some scuffing present.

A row of neatly ordered conifers frames the background, echoing the vertical rhythm of white chimneys rising from geometric rooftops. The houses are flattened into clean, angular planes, their shadows creating a dynamic interplay between structure and space.
The artist has used a controlled, muted palette – dusty olive greens, blues, and soft greys – punctuated by gentle pops of yellow and red flowers in the foreground. the brushwork is smooth and deliberate, favouring blocks of colour over texture, evoking a sense of calm and order. The composition masterfully balances abstraction and representation, capturing a tranquil, idealised view of domestic architecture.

A romantic and emotive mid-century figurative landscape that captures a tender moment between a couple seated on a white bench amidst a lush garden setting executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1965.
The figures are rendered in broad, expressive strokes, with the woman in a light blue dress and the man in a dark suit, their bodies gently leaning toward one another in a quiet show of intimacy.

Executed in a rich palette of blues, purple, light yellow, brown and black, the painting consists of a harmonious contrast of darker and lighter tones.

A large mid-century modernist landscape depicting a minimalist coastal scene rendered with bold, abstracted forms and expressive brushwork, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1950.
The scene is constructed from interlocking bands of earthy brown, olive green, slate blue, and creamy beige, suggesting sand, water, and distant terrain in an almost abstract arrangement. Thick, visible brushstrokes sweep across the surface, adding energy and rhythm to the otherwise still composition.
The artist’s modernist sensibility is evident in the stylised forms and reductive palette, which strip the landscape to its essential elements while retaining a strong sense of place. The work conveys a mood of solitude and atmospheric tension, encapsulating the quiet drama of nature through structure and tone.

A large and tranquil modernist figurative landscape that captures a quiet moment of introspection by the water’s edge, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1976.
In this evocative composition, a lone figure sits on a white chair beside a simple table, gazing toward the vast expanse of a blue sea. A delicate tree to the left stretches its light foliage across the scene, while gentle brushstrokes hint at distant waves and a faint sailboat on the horizon.
Painted in a soft, sun-drenched palette of blues, sandy orange, and muted purples, the work exudes a breezy Mediterranean atmosphere.

A large and engaging mid-century modernist still life painting that presents an elegant arrangement of glass bottles and a ceramic bowl on a table, set against a serene coastal backdrop, executed in oil onto canvas.

A large mid century modernist figurative composition in oil, painted onto board.
This painting is an expressive, semi-abstract portrait rendered in a loose, painterly style. It depicts a seated figure at a table, surrounded by shades of blue and teal, which dominate the composition and establish a cool, contemplative mood.
A tall vase of white flowers sits prominently on the table, painted with gestural, quick strokes. The flowers and green stems contrast sharply with the blue background, drawing the viewer’s eye.
The surface is highly textured, with areas of impasto and visible brushstrokes, particularly around the figure and floral arrangement. A range of blues—from pale to deep ultramarine—forms the primary backdrop, softened by touches of brown, green, white, and flesh tones. A small patch of bright blue on the table adds a focal point in the foreground.
This is a moody, introspective work that captures a quiet moment of solitude or thoughtfulness. The use of abstraction and layered brushwork conveys depth and emotion, while the limited palette enhances the sense of stillness and quiet. It’s a piece that invites reflection, both visually and emotionally.

A large and striking figurative composition in acrylic, executed onto stretched canvas and dated 2014 on the reverse.
This painting is a bold, minimalist representation of a standing figure, shown from the waist down. The figure wears a red skirt, blue coat or outer garment, and blue shoes with lighter blue uppers, and holds a brown walking stick, which adds a sense of balance the composition.
The style is flat and graphic, with solid blocks of colour and no shading or detail, creating a sense of modernist abstraction. The background consists of a light yellow wall, a mint green doorframe, and a warm ochre wooden floor with black lines indicating floorboards. The figure’s pale legs contrast against the colourful clothes and shoes, and the use of simplified forms gives the painting a striking, almost poster-like appearance.
The painting evokes themes of presence and stability, presented through a visually clean and stylized composition.
The painting is unframed but can be hung as is (the edges of the canvas have also been painted). The painting is in excellent vintage condition.

SOLD
A brilliantly executed composition that presents a solitary, stylised nude figure leaning against a plinth in what appears to be an abstracted artist’s studio or model room, painted in oil onto canvas.
Composed in 1972, the painting captures a quiet moment of introspection and stillness, with the figure’s curved posture offering a gentle contrast to the geometric rigidity of the surrounding environment.
Executed in a distinctly modernist style, the composition is constructed from flat, overlapping planes in muted tones of olive green, slate blue, warm orange, and deep maroon. The palette is cool and contemplative, creating a sense of psychological distance. A bold vertical panel in ultramarine anchors the left side of the work, drawing the eye toward the model. The right side recedes into architectural partitions and screens, painted in icy blue hues that hint at spatial depth without offering realism.
The artist’s brushwork is smooth and restrained, with minimal surface texture. Shadows and contours are suggested through tonal blocks rather than modelled detail, emphasising form over naturalism. This painting exemplifies a mid-century approach to figuration – introspective, architectural, and emotionally withheld – where the human form becomes part of a studied, constructed environment.
This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary wood frame painted silver. Both painting and frame are in good vintage condition.

A striking and emotive mid-century abstract composition painted in oil onto canvas, by Swedish painter Hans Osswald (1919-1983), whose works have been exhibited at the National Museum in Stockholm, Malmö Museum as well as The Brooklyn Museum.
The painting invites the viewer into a dynamic interplay of layered greens, icy blues, and deep emerald hues. Sweeping diagonals and overlapping forms create a sense of movement and quiet tension, evoking natural forms without direct representation. At its core, the painting pulses with organic vitality – its soft jade and moss tones offset by the smoky depth of midnight green and slate.
The brushstrokes vary in texture and direction, with areas of thick impasto contrasting with smoother, almost scraped-back planes. Textural accents and faint gestural arcs emerge through the surface, suggesting a hidden geometry or memory. With a palette both cool and contemplative, Verdant Echoes reflects the era’s fascination with abstraction as emotional landscape.

A fun and playful large 20th century cubist composition, painted in oil onto canvas and dated 1975 by Belgian artist Pierre Goossens.
This painting is a vibrant and structured cubist-style still life, featuring a table densely packed with musical instruments and domestic objects, rendered in flattened geometric forms and bold, contrasting colours.
At the centre is a large guitar, overlapping with a mandolin or lute, both abstracted into simplified, stylized shapes. A pair of green glasses or vessels, a red beret, and a bottle or vase are also identifiable among the layered elements. The tablecloth is covered with various patterned fabrics, adding texture and complexity. Behind the scene, an open window reveals a bright blue sky with fluffy white clouds, bringing depth and a suggestion of an exterior world.
The overall palette combines warm earthy tones (browns, reds, and ochres) with cool blues and blacks, creating dynamic visual contrast. The artist uses strong outlines and flat planes to define the forms, typical of the cubist and synthetic cubist approaches influenced by Picasso and Braque.
This painting is lively and rhythmic, celebrating form and colour through a stylised representation of everyday objects in a domestic or café-like setting.
This large oil on canvas is presented in a stepped black wood frame with an inner pale blue slip, which suits it well. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some surface wear and scuffing but is in a good and stable condition.

A bold and rhythmic composition mid-century modernist style painting that captures the essence of an abstracted landscape, painted in oil onto canvas.
The painting is structured through overlapping planes and blocks of colour that suggest rolling hills, fields, and sky – yet remain delightfully ambiguous, inviting interpretation.

White edges and bare patches of the underlying surface provide breathing space and contrast, giving the composition a spontaneous and layered appearance.
With its geometric abstraction and organic undertones, the work evokes a cultivated terrain seen through the lens of memory, emotion, and form – a tribute to the land reduced to its essential shapes and tones.

The composition captures an intimate scene of two figures, likely a mother and child or siblings, portrayed in a semi-abstract style. The figures are rendered with simplified, almost block-like forms, emphasising the connection between them rather than intricate details. One figure, dressed in a deep blue dress, cradles a dark form that resembles a small animal or a toy, while the other, smaller figure, appears to be reaching out or gesturing.
The painting balances representational elements with a geometric abstraction, and there is a focus is on shape, colour, and form, rather than realistic details.
The palette is predominantly muted with cool, earthy tones – soft greens, dark blues, deep blacks, and off-whites. The occasional pop of yellow adds warmth and contrast to the composition, highlighting the central figures.
The artist has used thick, textured brushstrokes, building up areas of layered pigment that give a tactile quality to the painting. The brushwork is bold and expressive, with visible strokes that enhance the raw, unpolished aesthetic. This technique adds depth and movement to the otherwise serene and contemplative scene.

A large and tranquil modernist painting that features a solitary rowboat resting on the shore, with a calm and expansive sea stretching out to the horizon, executed in oil onto board and dated 1981.
The rowboat, painted in muted whites and blues with earthy brown wooden supports, lies on a patch of grass, hinting at a moment of stillness and quiet reflection.
The painting is executed in a modernist style, employing geometric simplification and flat planes of colour to depict the scene. The brushstrokes are textured and deliberate, creating a tactile quality that enhances the sense of depth despite the otherwise flattened perspective.
The artist has used a restrained colour palette dominated by soft blues, pale whites, and earthy browns, evoking a serene coastal atmosphere. The subtle blending of sky and sea, contrasted with the distinct white of the boat, draws attention to the central subject while maintaining a harmonious balance.
Overall, this artwork beautifully captures the nostalgic essence of a quiet coastal moment.

A large and captivating mid-century modernist oil painting that captures a serene coastal village landscape with an expressive, semi-abstract approach, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1969.
The composition is structured with simplified forms of houses, trees, and waterways, conveying an atmospheric sense of place rather than a literal representation.
The colour palette is dominated by cool and muted earth tones – soft blues and greys for the sky and water, gentle greens and beige for the land, and contrasting dark navy and deep brown for architectural elements. Pops of white and terracotta red add warmth and vibrancy to the rooftops, subtly guiding the eye across the scene.
Executed with broad, gestural brushstrokes, the artist has used an impressionistic yet geometric approach, using thick layers to create texture and depth. The brushwork remains loose and spontaneous, allowing colours to blend dynamically while maintaining a structured composition.
