• Drift at Low Tide

    Drift at Low Tide

    £435

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An atmospheric modernist style coastal landscape that captures a quiet shoreline at low tide, where land, sea, and sky dissolve gently into one another, executed in oil onto board and dated 1978.

    The composition is horizontally layered, with a wide, luminous sky pressing softly down onto a narrow band of distant water and a foreground of windswept beach and tidal flats. The scene feels expansive yet intimate, evoking the stillness of a pause between weather or the calm after movement.

    The style is distinctly mid-century modern, leaning toward abstraction while remaining rooted in observation. Forms are simplified and loosely defined, allowing atmosphere and mood to take precedence over detail. The horizon line is slightly softened, reinforcing a sense of openness and distance.

    The colour palette is restrained and harmonious. Pale blues, soft greys, and milky whites dominate the sky, creating an airy, light-filled backdrop. The sea is rendered in muted blue-green tones with darker accents suggesting gentle wave movement. In the foreground, earthy rusts, warm browns, sandy creams, and touches of olive and slate introduce warmth and texture, grounding the composition.

    Brushstrokes are expressive and confident, applied with broad gestures. Thick, layered paint creates a tactile surface, particularly in the foreground, where sweeping strokes suggest sand, rock, and shallow water without literal detail. The sky is handled more softly, with blended strokes that enhance the painting’s calm, atmospheric quality.

    This oil on board is presented in a complementary gilt frame with an inner border. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Hillside Pathway

    Hillside Pathway

    £495

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A joyful and pleasant mid-century landscape that captures the essence of a bright day, painted in oil onto canvas.

    The composition centres on a winding path that gently curves upward between two softened, block-like structures – suggesting houses – positioned on either side. Lush, expressive greenery flanks the path, giving the scene a sense of movement and breezy energy.

    Rendered in a modernist style, the painting favours simplified forms, bold shapes, and confident, gestural brushwork over fine detail. The palette is uplifting and crisp: vivid turquoise skies, velvety greens, sandy browns, and touches of warm terracotta on the rooftops.

    Broad, sweeping strokes convey the foliage with speed and spontaneity, while the smooth, curved brushwork of the path introduces calmness and flow. The overall effect is fresh and  optimistic, and captures the simple pleasure of a hillside walk.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a beautiful champagne wood frame with an inner border. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Houses by the Sea

    Houses by the Sea

    £485

    Available

    Free UK Shipping Only.

    A serene and atmospheric mid-century landscape that presents a quiet coastal scene viewed from a gently rising hillside, executed in oil onto canvas.

    Two angular, red-roofed houses sit nestled into the land, their simple forms silhouetted against a wide expanse of luminous blue sea. The composition draws the eye naturally from the darker, earth-toned foreground up toward the glowing horizon, creating a strong sense of depth and calm.

    Stylistically, the painting reflects mid-century modern sensibilities: simplified architecture, balanced geometry, and an emphasis on mood over fine detail. The houses are rendered with bold, confident shapes, while surrounding trees and foliage are loosely suggested rather than precisely defined. This restraint gives the work a timeless, contemplative quality.

    The colour palette is both rich and harmonious. Deep greens, mossy browns, and muted browns dominate the foreground, contrasted beautifully by the saturated cobalt and ultramarine blues of the sea. Above, a soft, sunlit sky in pale yellows and creams introduces warmth and light, enhancing the tranquil atmosphere. Subtle flashes of orange and red in the buildings act as focal points within the composition.

    Brushstrokes are expressive yet controlled. The sky is built up with soft, layered strokes that create a gentle, luminous texture, while the landscape below features broader, more gestural marks, allowing colours to blend and breathe. The overall paint application feels confident and painterly, capturing both structure and spontaneity.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a well-suited linen lined wood frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition. 

    Size: 68.5 x 79.5 cm (including frame)

  • Still Life with Blue Cup

    Still Life with Blue Cup

    £510

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A soothing mid-century still life that presents a calm tabletop arrangement of everyday objects, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The composition depicts two ceramic jugs, a small blue cup, and a pair of apples – set against a simplified interior backdrop. The composition feels intimate and considered, with each form carefully spaced to create balance and quiet rhythm across the horizontal canvas.

    Painted in a distinctly modernist style, the artist has reduced the objects to solid, gently rounded forms, emphasising structure over detail. Perspective is subtly flattened, allowing the shapes to sit confidently within the picture plane rather than receding deeply into space.

    The colour palette is restrained yet expressive: cool blues and soft greys dominate the vessels and background, contrasted by the warm yellow-green and blush tones of the apples. A muted green tabletop anchors the composition, while deeper blue shadows add depth and visual weight without disturbing the overall calm.

    Brushstrokes are visible and softly textured, lending the surface a tactile, painterly quality. Edges are slightly softened rather than sharply defined, giving the scene a relaxed, contemplative mood. Together, the colours and brushwork evoke a sense of domestic stillness.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary wood frame with an inner linen and gilt border. The painting itself is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some small water marks to its innermost parts, consistent with its vintage character.

  • Difficult Tableau

    Difficult Tableau

    £350

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A small and visually impactful abstract composition in oil, painted by British artist Lloyd Durling,

    This painting showcases Durling’s distinctive abstract vocabulary—tactile, spatially quiet, and emotionally charged through texture and colour. It feels like a visual diary entry composed of silences punctuated by vivid moments.

    Durling introduces small blocks of intense, saturated colours including jet black, fiery orange, acidic yellow, and forest green, scattered throughout the pale background like thoughts breaking through quietude. Thick, painterly textures dominate the surface. The paint is almost sculpted, making the canvas a physical object as much as a visual one. This adds emotional depth—you sense that each mark carries intention and presence.

    This impasto painting is mounted a dark stained oak frame. The dark wooden frame again complements the painting beautifully—earthy and solid, grounding the delicate and expressive content within.

    Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

    Lloyd is based in London and his practice is painting-based. His first international solo show was in 2010 at Golden in Chicago and he has exhibited widely throughout Europe, Asia and the US. In 2017 he was awarded a Pollock-Krasner Foundation grant. Lloyd’s works are held in public and private collections worldwide, including the Whitworth Art Gallery and Museum, Progressive collection, America and Nomura Bank, Japan.

  • Things Far and Near

    Things Far and Near

    £350

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A small and visually impactful abstract composition in oil, painted by British artist Lloyd Durling,

    This painting showcases Durling’s hallmark abstract language—minimal yet emotionally charged, textured yet airy. It’s a small piece that feels quiet but confident, introspective and balanced, like a private rhythm unfolding in colour and texture.

    As with much of Durling’s work, the surface is highly textured, with thick layers of paint that create a tactile, almost geological quality. The canvas feels worked, scraped, and layered, like time embedded in paint.

    The background is dominated by a soft minty green and pale pink base, giving the work a calm and gentle tone. Accents of bold black, vibrant orange-red, buttery yellow, and bright white interrupt the softness in bursts.

    Despite its abstraction, this piece feels personal and evocative. There’s a delicate tension between order and spontaneity, between soft space and strong marks.

    This impasto painting is mounted a dark stained oak frame. The dark wooden frame is a perfect match for this kind of subtle abstraction. It provides a visual anchor without stealing any attention, and its rustic quality echoes the organic textures in the painting itself.

    Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

  • Calm Coast

    Calm Coast

    £585

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A soothing mid-century coastal landscape that captures a quiet shoreline moment where 2 boats rest on pale sand as the tide gently recedes, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1957.

    The coastline curves softly into the distance, leading the eye toward low hills and a scattering of seaside buildings that dissolve into the hazy horizon. The composition balances stillness and movement: the grounded boats anchoring the foreground while the waterline sweeps gracefully along the shore.

    Painted in a distinctly mid-century modern style, the work favours simplification over detail. Forms are reduced to broad planes and subtle contours, lending the scene a calm, contemplative rhythm. The palette is restrained and harmonious, with soft sands, muted sage and olive greens, and cool coastal blues, all gently warmed by blush and sandy undertones.

    Brushstrokes are loose and expressive, applied in layered, painterly passages that create texture without heaviness. The surface retains a light, airy quality, with visible strokes lending a sense of immediacy and atmosphere. Overall, the painting evokes a serene coastal pause – timeless, understated, and deeply evocative of mid-century European seaside sensibilities.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a well-suited wood frame with an inner linen border. Both the painting and frame are in  excellent vintage condition.

  • A Pause Between Places

    A Pause Between Places

    £495

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking mid-century figurative landscape that captures a quiet, contemplative moment at the boundary between nature and the built environment, painted in oil onto board by the established Swedish female artist Brita Hansson (1918-1979).

    A group of abstracted figures sit near a winding path, their forms simplified yet expressive, while a pair of stylised trees rise beside them – curving, organic silhouettes that anchor the composition. In the distance, block-like architectural forms suggest a town or cityscape, softened and abstracted to create a sense of calm detachment rather than urban bustle.

    Executed in a distinctly mid-century modern idiom, the painting balances figuration and abstraction with ease. The artist has used flattened planes, rhythmic shapes, and a gently asymmetrical composition to guide the eye through the scene. There is a lyrical, almost poetic quality to the arrangement, where figures, trees, and buildings coexist in quiet harmony.

    The palette is warm and nuanced, featuring soft creams, sandy beiges, pale blues, and blush tones, punctuated by deeper earthy browns, rust reds, olive greens, and muted teals. These contrasting yet harmonious colours lend the work both warmth and depth, while maintaining a light, airy atmosphere.

    Confident, visible brushstrokes define the surface, with areas of loose, gestural paint layered against more opaque, block-like applications. Subtle scraping and overlaps reveal underlayers of colour, adding texture and movement. The painterly approach enhances the sense of spontaneity and modernist freedom characteristic of mid-century works.

    This oil on board is housed in a well-suited wood frame with an inner gilt window. The painting is in very good vintage condition. There is a slight unevenness to the board but this is purely structural and does not affect the stability or visual impact of the artwork.

  • Geometric Collage in Raw Sienna

    Geometric Collage in Raw Sienna

    £380

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very unique original artwork by British artist Dave Boyd, constructed from discarded books (repurposed cloth covers, papers, cardboard, binding boards) mounted on a wooden panel in a solid wood float frame.

    Centred in the upper half is a soft pinkish-orange circle, and in the lower half, a deep maroon or burgundy circle, both crisply defined but softly textured. The background is a heavily textured rust-brown surface, almost like oxidized metal or aged earth. It’s speckled with natural-looking marks, scuffs, and tonal variation, creating a sense of history and  suggesting time, wear, and process.

    The artwork is presented in wood frame that suits it very well. It has been constructed with professional grade adhesive and is shipped with robust fixings, ready to hang, Both artwork and frame are in excellent condition.

    Dave’s artistic practice focuses on the juxtaposition between the manmade and the natural and the human experience of geometric forms, surfaces and materials. Paintings and collages often embody a built or constructed aesthetic and are strongly influenced by architecture and the built environment, with the aim of suggesting visual encounters with structures and landscapes. Utilising and repurposing materials,  with a focus on minimal composition, surface and colour, Dave’s work seek to utilise the subtle marks inherent in objects that have been used and handled over many years.

  • Harbour at Rest

    Harbour at Rest

    £435

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An atmospheric mid-century seascape that captures a tranquil harbour scene where moored fishing boats rest gently along the quay, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1953.

    The composition is anchored by two vessels, their masts and rigging forming a rhythmic lattice against a pale, open sky. A simple waterside building to the right introduces architectural balance, while the calm inlet reflects the boats in softened, broken tones, reinforcing the stillness of the moment.

    Painted in a distinctly mid-century modern style, the work favours structure and mood over detail. Forms are simplified and confidently blocked in, lending the scene a quiet solidity and timeless charm.

    The colour palette is muted and harmonious, dominated by soft greys, weathered whites, warm and earthy browns, with subtle accents of black and a touch of brick red along the roofline. These tones suggest early morning light and a cool coastal air, while the water is rendered in pale blues and silvery reflections.

    Brushstrokes are loose, expressive, and clearly visible, particularly in the sky and water, where layered strokes create movement and texture without disrupting the overall calm. Thicker applications of paint define the boats and quay, giving them tactile presence and depth.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a beautiful wood frame with visible grain as well as an outer gilt border. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Passing Light

    Passing Light

    £455

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An emotive mid-century figurative painting that captures a procession of elongated figures moving through a softly lit interior space, executed in oil onto canvas.

    Rendered with a dreamlike sense of motion, the figures appear to overlap and dissolve into one another, suggesting the quiet anonymity and rhythm of everyday life. One central figure, subtly more defined and luminous, anchors the composition and draws the viewer’s eye, creating a moment of pause amid the flow.

    There is an emphasis on mood and gesture over precise detail. Forms are simplified and slightly abstracted, lending the scene an introspective, almost existential quality reminiscent of post-war European figurative painting.

    The colour palette is restrained and atmospheric, dominated by warm creams, sand, soft browns, and muted greys, with gentle accents of pale blue and hints of earthy green. These tones enhance the painting’s sense of light and space, while maintaining a calm, contemplative mood.

    Brushstrokes are loose, layered, and expressive, with visible textures that give the figures a transient presence. The paint is applied with a dry, feathered touch in places, allowing the background to breathe through the forms, reinforcing the impression of movement and impermanence.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary warm, off-white tone frame that echoes the painting’s palette. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • The Open Window

    The Open Window

    £490

    Available

    Free UK Shipping Only.

    A large, serene and light-filled mid-century coastal scene viewed from an open window,  painted in oil onto canvas.

    This tranquil painting invites the viewer into a sunlit summer morning by the sea. The composition is framed by delicate, sheer curtains billowing gently inward, softening the transition between interior and exterior. Beyond the window lies a lush garden bursting with violet blue delphiniums and pale pink blooms, leading the eye toward a sparkling expanse of ocean where the sun casts a gentle shimmer across the water.

    Rendered in a soft, lyrical mid-century style, the palette is dominated by airy whites, fresh greens, pastel blues, and gentle pinks, creating a sense of calm and effortless charm. The artist has used light, feathery brushstrokes to capture the translucency of the curtains and the movement of the foliage, while smoother, blended strokes describe the distant horizon and glowing sky. Subtle impasto in the floral areas adds texture and depth, enhancing the sense of a garden alive with colour and breeze.

    A peaceful and evocative work that beautifully captures the nostalgia of coastal summers and the quiet poetry of a room opening onto nature.

  • Still Life with Mountain View

    Still Life with Mountain View

    £550

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An evocative mid-century still life that presents a quiet interior moment set against a distant landscape,  painted in oil onto board.

    In the foreground, a tabletop arrangement of fruit: a crescent slice of watermelon, a rounded green melon, and a dark plum sits alongside a simple tumbler, all positioned before an open window with shuttered sides. Beyond the window, a sparse rural scene unfolds: whitewashed buildings, rolling fields, and softly contoured mountains receding into a muted horizon. The composition gently balances interior intimacy with exterior openness, inviting the viewer to linger between the domestic and the expansive.

    Stylistically, the work reflects classic mid-century modern sensibilities: simplified forms, flattened perspective, and a deliberate restraint in detail. The palette is calm and earthy – dusty greys, sage and olive greens, soft blues, and chalky whites – punctuated by the gentle blush pink of the watermelon flesh, which acts as a subtle focal point. Darker tones around the window frame and tabletop anchor the composition and create a sense of enclosure.

    The brushwork is expressive yet controlled. Broad, matte strokes define planes and objects, while visible brush marks lend the surface a tactile, painterly quality. Edges are softly articulated rather than sharply drawn, contributing to the work’s contemplative mood.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary wood frame with an inner linen lining. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some scuffs.

    Cafe Corner

    £500

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A charming mid-century figurative scene capturing two quiet moments at a cafe, painted in oil onto canvas.

    In the foreground, a seated figure in a deep navy jacket and soft blue beret rests a hand on the edge of a round cafe table, their form simplified into warm, tonal blocks of colour. Behind them, another figure is absorbed in reading, rendered with the same softened anonymity. A bright window view opens out to terracotta rooftops and a leafy green tree, bathing the interior in a gentle, diffused glow.

    Painted in a restrained, modernist style, the composition favours suggestion over detail. Colours are muted yet fresh – powder blues, sage greens, clay reds, and chalky neutrals form a harmonious palette. The brushwork is tactile and deliberate, with thick, confident strokes that create a pleasing sense of texture and movement. Figures and objects are shaped through broad patches of pigment rather than fine modelling, giving the work a serene, contemplative atmosphere.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary linen lined frame that pairs wonderfully with the painting. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Green Apple with Glasses

    Green Apple with Glasses

    £720

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A refined mid-century still life that presents a quiet tabletop arrangement composed of a dark glass bottle, a delicate wine glass holding a small measure of red wine, and a vivid green apple,  painted in oil onto canvas.

    Set against a cool, muted background, the composition balances solidity and translucence, with the reflective tabletop subtly mirroring the forms above it. A secondary, shadowed bottle in the background adds depth and a sense of spatial calm, while loosely suggested vertical planes hint at an interior setting beyond the table’s edge.

    Executed in a distinctly modernist mid-century style, the painting favours simplified forms and tonal harmony over strict realism. The colour palette is restrained yet expressive: smoky blue-greys and slate tones dominate the background, offset by the rich emerald of the bottle, the jewel-like crimson of the wine, and the luminous, almost electric green of the apple. These carefully placed accents draw the eye and create a gentle visual rhythm across the surface.

    The brushwork is confident, with visible strokes lending texture and life to the painted surface. Broad, matte passages contrast with more fluid, translucent handling in the glassware, where light and reflection are suggested rather than meticulously detailed.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary silver painted wood frame with visible grain.  Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • The Piano

    The Piano

    £480

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A contemplative painting dated 1978 that presents an upright piano reduced to its essential forms, transforming a familiar domestic object into a study of mood and structure, and executed in oil onto canvas.

    The instrument is shown front-on, its keyboard stretching horizontally across the composition, with an open book of sheet music hovering at the centre like a quiet focal point. Subtle hints of pedals below ground the piano in space, while the surrounding fields of colour dissolve the setting into something more psychological than literal.

    The work favours simplification over detail and atmosphere over realism. The piano’s solid mass is rendered in broad, blocky shapes, lending it a sculptural presence, while the perspective is gently skewed, adding a sense of introspection and stillness rather than strict accuracy.

    The colour palette is both restrained and expressive. Deep blacks and charcoal browns of the piano are softened by surrounding planes of olive green, moss, muted yellow, and a warm rust-red edge, creating a subtle tension between cool and warm tones. The white of the keys and sheet music emerges softly from the darker body, glowing rather than sharply contrasting.

    Brushstrokes are visible and deliberate, applied in layered, matte passages that flatten the surface while retaining texture. Edges are softened and slightly blurred, allowing forms to bleed gently into one another. This painterly handling enhances the quiet, contemplative mood of the piece, suggesting not sound or performance, but the pause before music begins – a moment of silence filled with potential.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary slim wood frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    The composition is front-facing and architectural, reducing the subject to its essential planes and proportions. White doors – each slightly misaligned and marked by age – create a rhythmic sequence across the surface, punctuated by hinges, latches, and subtle irregularities in the wood.

    Stylistically, the work reflects a mid-century modern sensibility, where everyday vernacular architecture is treated with restraint and formal clarity. The artist balances realism with a gently abstracted approach, emphasising geometry, repetition, and surface texture over narrative detail.

    The colour palette is warm yet grounded: rich reds dominate the background, softened by the chalky whites and pale greys of the doors. Muted shadows and earthy undertones add depth, while the roofline introduces a darker band that anchors the composition.

    Brushstrokes are deliberate and tactile, particularly visible in the vertical planks and the layered paint on the doors. The handling of paint suggests careful observation: neither loose nor overly polished, allowing the texture of wood and the passage of time to subtly emerge. Overall, the painting conveys a sense of stillness and quiet endurance, capturing beauty in the functional and the worn.

    This oil on canvas board is mounted onto a complementary silver painted wood frame with an inner wood border.  Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    Size: 28.5 x 36.5 cm (including frame)

  • Dance the Night Away

    Dance the Night Away

    £495

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A lively, cubist-inspired depiction of a dance scene, painted in oil onto board.
    Bursting with movement, music, and social energy, the artist has stylised the human figures into angular, geometric forms, using dynamic composition and vivid colour to capture the joy and motion of a moment frozen in time.

    The palette is warm and rich, dominated by reds, oranges, yellows, and earthy browns, contrasted with purples, greens, and soft greys. Movement is conveyed not just through the figures but through the background, which is fractured into diagonal planes, giving the scene energy and rhythm.

    The dance, the music, and the expressive poses suggest a night of uninhibited fun. This painting is a beautiful example of how modernist geometry and vibrant social scenes can merge into something timeless and full of spirit.

    This oil on board is housed in a wood frame with a linen border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. There is some very light scuffing to the frame but it is  good condition overall.

    Size: 43 x 45.5 cm (including frame)

  • House Beyond the Green

    House Beyond the Green

    £435

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A quiet and serene mid-century landscape composition, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The painting presents a small white house that sits partially hidden within dense, verdant foliage. Set back from the viewer and framed by trees, the dwelling feels both secluded and gently anchored to its surroundings. A band of water runs horizontally through the middle ground, separating the lush greens above from the warmer, earth-toned foreground, creating a subtle sense of depth and balance.

    The style is distinctly mid-century in its simplification of forms and emphasis on mood over detail. Architectural elements are reduced to essential shapes, while the landscape is expressed through broad planes of colour rather than precise delineation. The composition feels calm and introspective, inviting the viewer to linger in the stillness of the scene.

    The palette is rich yet harmonious: layered greens dominate the canvas, ranging from deep forest tones to lighter, almost luminous grassy hues. These are contrasted by a soft blue sky and water, which cool the composition, and a striking foreground of burnt orange and rust tones that adds warmth and visual weight.

    Brushstrokes are loose and painterly, with visible texture throughout. The artist uses confident, gestural strokes to suggest foliage and ground, allowing colours to blend organically at their edges. This tactile surface quality enhances the sense of atmosphere and reinforces the painting’s expressive, mid-century character.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary silver frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Pathway to the Sea

    Pathway to the Sea

    £445

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A sunlit mid-century modernist landscape composition that exudes calm, painted in oil onto canvas.

    This charming coastal scene captures a quiet path leading toward the shimmering shoreline. Tall, slender trees frame the composition, their canopies rendered in cool greens and muted teals, gently swaying above the sandy walkway. A pale house sits nestled in the background, its warm ochre tones subtly contrasting with the cool blues of the distant sea and sky.

    Painted in a distinctly modernist style, the work features broad, confident blocks of colour and simplified forms, allowing atmosphere and light to take centre stage. The artist has used thick, textured brushstrokes: especially in the foliage – creating lively movement and softness at once. The palette is refreshing and serene: sea-blues, grassy greens, soft lilacs, sandy neutrals, and warm earth tones blend harmoniously to evoke a breezy, coastal afternoon.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary wood frame with an inner linen border. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Sliced Lemons

    Sliced Lemons

    £765

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A cubist inspired still life composition, painted in oil onto canvas and dated 1956.

    The focal point is a pair of sliced lemons, painted in thick, creamy strokes of yellow, white, and peach, giving them a fresh, tactile presence. Beside the fruit is a green pear-like form, adding another organic shape and hue. These items rest on a dark surface, perhaps a tabletop, which is painted in large, angular blocks of navy and black.

    A small brown table or cabinet with short legs sits in the upper right quadrant. It appears simplified and stylised, reinforcing the abstracted, geometric quality of the whole scene.

    This piece is heavily influenced by Cubism and early modernism. Forms are reduced to flat planes and hard-edged shapes and the brushwork is confident but restrained. There is a visible grid-like structure as if the artist constructed the composition like a puzzle.

    The painting feels studied, measured, and designed, like an artist exploring how to deconstruct the familiar (fruit and furniture) into new visual language. It invites the viewer to slow down, observe form over realism, and enjoy the way light and space are broken into segments. The fractured composition gives it a slightly modern, mosaic-like effect, almost architectural in nature.

    The painting is housed in a light grey wood with a weathered patina and a gently bevelled design. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Still Life Elements

    Still Life Elements

    £580

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

     A bold and stylised mid century still life in oil, painted onto board and dated 1955.
    Blending cubist and modernist influences, the composition is defined by strong, simplified shapes and vivid colour blocking, creating a playful yet structured visual experience. The painting features an arrangement of classic still life elements including a pitcher, a teapot, bottles, a cup, and several round red fruits. Bright green leaves sprawl across the foreground, adding organic curves against the sharper forms behind them.

    These pops of vibrant red in the fruit and rich green in the leaves create striking contrast. A triangular beam of yellow light or background wall shape adds dynamic energy and depth to the scene.

    The shadows are bold and geometric, not naturalistic, adding a graphic design-like quality that emphasises form over realism.

    This painting embraces a modernist abstraction of still life, similar in spirit to the work of Fernand Léger or early Picasso. It feels both playful and calculated, as if each shape is carefully placed like pieces in a visual puzzle. It also has a slightly theatrical feel, as if lit from stage lights, enhancing its sense of constructed drama.

    This oil on canvas is presented in a beautifully distressed vintage wood frame.  The painting has some areas of craquelure as shown in the photos but it is very stable overall. The frame has some scuffing, commensurate with age.

  • The Craft of Two

    The Craft of Two

    £425

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A small yet impactful mid-century figurative scene capturing two figures seated side by side and absorbed in an activity,  painted in oil onto canvas.

    The figures’ forms are simplified into soft blocks of colour, giving the composition a lyrical stillness: one figure in a warm rose-brown dress, the other rendered in deeper charcoal tones. Both bend slightly forward, hands engaged over a table, suggesting companionship, focus, and the quiet rituals of everyday life.

    Painted in a distinctly modernist, reductionist style, the artist has distilled the scene into broad, confident shapes rather than fine detail. The palette is muted yet harmonious: pale greys, warm browns, sandy yellows, and touches of turquoise that lift the composition. The background is kept intentionally understated, allowing the figures to hold the emotional weight of the piece.

    Brushstrokes are loose, expressive, and opaque: applied in thick, purposeful patches that gradually build the forms. Edges are softened, merging figure and space in a way that feels intimate and contemplative.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary gilt frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Arrangement by the Window

    Arrangement by the Window

    £540

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A refined mid-century interior still life painting, executed in oil onto canvas.

    This composition arranges everyday objects into a poised, almost architectural tableau. A bowl of brightly coloured fruit anchors the scene, set upon a warm brown tabletop alongside two citrus forms and a slender candlestick. Above, a dark mortar and pestle sits against a softly diffused window, where vertical strokes evoke sheer curtains and architectural buildings. Along the lower register, abstract floral or fruit-like motifs echo the colours above, creating a rhythmic visual balance.

    Rendered in a modernist, reductive style, the painting favours simplified shapes and carefully weighted blocks of colour over fine detail. Softly scumbled brushstrokes and visible edges give the work a textural, atmospheric quality, while the artist’s palette – dusty blues, muted greys, warm ochres, soft greens, and small bursts of orange and yellow lends calmness punctuated by subtle vibrancy. The overall effect is contemplative and elegant, transforming a quiet domestic moment into a study of harmony, form, and mood.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary slim gilt frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Blossoms & Fruit

    Blossoms & Fruit

    £495

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A soothing and very pleasant mid-century modernist style still life that presents a luminous arrangement of flowers and fruit, executed in oil onto board.

    At the centre, a white ceramic vase holds a lively bouquet of blossoms: soft blue, deep red, vivid yellow and indigo – set against a dramatic background of shadowed navy and pale grey. The floral forms are loosely defined yet full of character, capturing the spontaneity and freshness of a moment observed.

    Below, an assortment of apples, plums and a single green pear are scattered casually across the tabletop. Their rounded forms and warm tones create a pleasing counterbalance to the vertical elegance of the vase. A patterned drape in soft blue with warm rust-orange accents adds depth and a gentle theatricality to the composition.

    The palette is harmonious and inviting: cool blues and greys contrasted with bright fruit tones and fresh greens. Brushstrokes are expressive but controlled, with soft blending in the background and more decisive, painterly marks in the flowers and fruit. The overall effect is one of warmth, vibrancy and quiet domestic charm – an appealing example of mid-century still-life painting that brings both colour and calm to any interior.

    This oil on board is presented in a complementary gilt frame. The painting itself is in very good vintage condition, and the frame has some areas of wear to the inner frame as shown in the photos.

  • The Exchange

    The Exchange

    £475

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A captivating and expressive mid-century figurative painting depicting two stylised figures standing in quiet dialogue, executed in oil onto canvas.

    Their forms are abstracted yet expressive – one slender and upright, the other broader with a gently tilted head, creating an intimate sense of interaction without relying on facial detail. The figures feel sculptural, almost totemic, evoking mood through posture rather than realism.

    Rendered in a bold modernist style, the composition embraces simplified shapes and a strong graphic presence. The palette is warm and earthy, dominated by orange, rust, deep umber, charcoal, and muted mustard yellows. These tones are set against a pale, softly luminous background that enhances the painting’s sense of warmth and immediacy.

    The brushwork is confident and textural, with broad, gestural strokes that give the figures weight and movement. Layered passages of paint create subtle ridges and variations, while the looser background wash keeps the scene airy and light. There is a raw, expressive quality to the application – intentional yet spontaneous.

    A striking piece with strong presence, emotional ambiguity, and a wonderful interplay of colour and form.

    This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary rich, dark wood frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has slight widening to the corners, some scuffs, as well as four small drill holes present  in each corner of the frame.

  • Winter Light at Dusk

    Winter Light at Dusk

    £615

    Available

    Free UK Shipping Only.

    An evocative mid-century modernist landscape scene with figure, executed in oil onto canvas.

    This painting captures a solitary figure standing before a quiet winter landscape as an orange sun dips low against a muted sky. The composition is distilled into simplified geometric forms: angular rooftops, rounded treetops, and broad planes of snow – creating a serene yet contemplative atmosphere.

    Rendered in cool tones of slate blue, charcoal, dove grey and icy white, the palette is beautifully punctuated by the warm, amber glow of the setting sun. The artist has used confident, stylised brushstrokes, outlining forms with inky, expressive lines that lend the scene a graphic clarity. Areas of flat colour are softened by subtle modulation, giving depth to the snowy fields and the silhouetted figure.

    The overall effect is both still and cinematic: a quiet winter moment reduced to its essential shapes, colours and mood, with a strong sense of restraint and poetic minimalism.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a characterful frame with a grey-wash wood grain finish. The painting in good vintage condition overall – with some marks and warp to the canvas.

    Size: 78 x 88.5 cm (including frame)
