    A very atmospheric contemporary abstract composition, painted onto canvas by British artist Nicky Knill Jones.

    The painting captures the serene, meditative quality of a wide, open coastal scene. Soft brushstrokes and a muted palette of pale blues, greys, and sandy beiges evoke the stillness of a tidal flat or beach at low tide, where sea and sky blend almost imperceptibly on the horizon.

    The composition is horizontal and spacious, with distant, darkened headlands framing the scene and guiding the viewer’s eye gently toward the center. The foreground is rendered in translucent layers, suggesting wet sand and shallow pools reflecting the soft light above. There is a sense of vastness and calm, where time seems suspended.

    Overall, the painting conveys peaceful solitude and the quiet grandeur of nature, using minimal detail and harmonious tones to evoke a deeply contemplative atmosphere.

    This painting is beautifully presented in a white tray frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

    £765

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A beautifully framed large landscape composition, painted onto canvas by British artist Nicky Knill Jones.

    This painting portrays a striking coastal view of St Michael’s Mount in Cornwall. Rendered with expressive, fluid brushwork, the artwork captures the tidal causeway and surrounding seascape under a vast, luminous sky.

    Foreground rocks and textured brushstrokes evoke the movement and shimmer of tidal pools and wet sands, with tones of soft blue, white, and muted earth colors suggesting the meeting of land and sea.

  • Green Pears on Table

    Green Pears on Table

    £750

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A charming and characterful still life composition executed in tempera on board in 1979, by the established Swedish artist Eric Cederberg (1897-1984), whose artworks have been represented in several public and museum collections across Sweden.

    The painting presents a neat arrangement of five bright green pears – four whole and one sliced open to reveal its pale, almost translucent interior. The fruits are evenly spaced across a deep brown tabletop, their rounded forms casting bold, graphic shadows that anchor them to the surface. Scattered leaves add a touch of organic movement, their linear veins painted in stylised strokes.

    The palette is wonderfully restrained yet vivid: fresh greens for the pears, muted earthy browns in the background, and stark black accents used for shadow and seed detail. The brushwork is clean and deliberate, with flat planes of colour and minimal blending, giving the piece a graphic, almost poster-like quality. Each pear is painted with a confident simplicity, allowing form and silhouette to take precedence over realism.

    This still life celebrates simplicity and bold shape, making it a striking decorative piece with strong visual character.

    This painting on board is presented in a complementary gilt frame with an inner cream border.  The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some marks and paint loss as shown.

    Passing Moments

    £445

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A mid-century painting that captures a fleeting atmospheric street scene, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The composition is set against the backdrop of a large building. In the foreground, scattered figures in coats and hats move across an open square, their simplified forms rendered with brisk, confident brushstrokes. Leafless trees punctuate the composition, their dark linear trunks rising against the pale ground, while a lamp post anchors the right-hand side.

    The artist has used a restrained yet evocative palette: earthy ochres and muted greens dominate the architecture and square, while deep blues, blacks, and touches of red provide contrast and rhythm throughout the work. The brushwork is bold and expressive, with textured strokes conveying movement and liveliness in the urban setting.

    The scene has a strong narrative presence – figures cross paths under a dusky sky, hinting at the quiet routines of city life. The painting balances structure with spontaneity, embodying the modernist spirit of mid-century urban scenes.

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

  • The Unspoken Between Us

    The Unspoken Between Us

    £405

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An enigmatic contemporary figurative painting that presents two semi-abstracted figures, rendered in broad, raw brushstrokes, and executed in oil onto board.

    The central figure dominates the composition with a pale pink face, its expression subdued and introspective, clothed in a deep block of black that anchors the work. To the left, a second, fainter visage emerges – its features less defined, almost spectral – set against a backdrop of intense crimson.

    The style is deeply expressionistic, favouring emotional resonance over realism. The artist has used loose, textured brushwork, allowing streaks of paint to drag and layer across the surface. The palette is limited but powerful: saturated reds, stark black, white, and fleshy pinks combine to create a mood of tension and vulnerability. The contrast between the figures and the turbulent background enhances the sense of psychological depth, suggesting themes of presence and absence, solitude and companionship.

    This is a painting that invites reflection – it conveys both fragility and unease, capturing fleeting, human emotions with raw immediacy.

    This oil on board is presented in a complementary slim wood frame frame. Both the painting and frame are in very good condition.

    Available

    Free UK Shipping Only.

    An atmospheric modernist style mid-century cityscape painting that captures a quiet urban street running alongside a canal, painted in oil onto canvas.

    Executed in a restrained modernist style, the artist has used broad, simplified forms and minimal detail to emphasise mood over realism. The palette is composed of muted greys, earthy browns, and beige, softened by pale green reflections in the canal water. The brushstrokes are loose yet deliberate, with visible textures and layered tonal variations that add depth to the otherwise stark geometry.

    There is a quiet melancholy to the work, evoking a sense of solitude and introspection within the starkness of the urban landscape.

    Farmhouse Cottage

    £435

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A charming mid-century landscape painting, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The composition captures a serene landscape scene of a farmhouse beneath a broad thatched roof, accompanied by a full-bodied tree to the right. The composition is balanced and restrained, focusing on the geometric rhythm of the roofline contrasted with the organic softness of the foliage.

    The artist has worked in a modernist style, reducing forms to their essentials while retaining a sense of place and atmosphere. The palette is cool and calming, with sky blues, muted teals, earthy browns, and soft golden browns, which together create a tranquil countryside mood.

    The brushstrokes are broad and textured, applied with confident, almost block-like swathes of paint that suggest depth and light without unnecessary detail. This technique allows the viewer’s eye to rest on the impression of shapes and tones, rather than fine rendering.

  • Fields in Springtime

    £405

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An expressive mid-century oil painting depicts a sweeping landscape view, freshly awakened with the vitality of spring, executed in oil onto board.

    The land stretches broadly under an expansive sky, the furrowed fields rendered in warm browns, yellow, and soft greens, suggesting freshly turned soil and new growth. Patches of verdant green brushstrokes punctuate the earth, hinting at the season’s renewal, while clusters of trees appear on the horizon, their foliage painted in luminous tones of green.

    The style is painterly and expressive, with bold, gestural strokes that convey the texture of the earth and the gentle energy of the season. The artist’s use of textured brushstrokes and layered colour adds depth and rhythm, allowing the viewer to sense both movement and stillness within the landscape. The pale sky, rendered in soft whites and cool blues, emphasises the openness of the scene and provides a delicate contrast to the richness of the fields below.

    Stylistically, the work balances naturalistic observation with painterly abstraction – the forms are suggested rather than detailed, allowing colour and gesture to evoke the mood of the land.

    This oil on board is presented in a complementary gilt frame.  The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has a very small loss to its corner top left corner.

    £495

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking and expressive mid-century still life painting that depicts a rustic tabletop arrangement, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The composition presents two elongated fish that rest prominently upon a wooden cutting board. Alongside them are three deep red onions, a stout bottle with a cork, and a tin. Additional small objects are scattered across the scene, creating a sense of domestic simplicity.

    Executed in bold, expressive brushstrokes, the artist has used a palette of earthy reds, cool blues, muted greens, and creamy whites, offset by the dramatic dark tones of the draped cloth beneath the objects. The composition balances sharp diagonals with rounded forms, adding rhythm and dynamism to the still life. The painter’s loose, textured strokes and layered colours capture the raw materiality of each item without striving for perfect realism, instead evoking mood and movement.

    The overall effect is both vigorous and intimate – a celebration of everyday objects through the lens of modernist mid-century sensibilities.

    £500

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A modernist style cityscape painting that captures a serene coastal town scene, executed in oil onto board and dated 1974.

    The composition is dominated by the silhouette of an old stone ruin at its centre, set against the backdrop of a calm sea and expansive sky. Clustered houses with terracotta-red and ochre rooftops surround the structure, their geometric forms contrasting with the organic shapes of dark green trees and cypress spires. A distant ship with a faint plume of smoke drifts across the horizon, adding a subtle sense of movement to the otherwise still composition.

    Executed in a restrained yet evocative style, the painting demonstrates the hallmarks of mid-century modernist sensibilities: simplified architectural forms, bold blocks of colour, and an emphasis on light and shadow over fine detail. The palette is dominated by earthy reds, warm ochres, deep greens, soft greys, and cool blues, evoking both warmth and calm. Brushstrokes are broad and confident, with flat planes of colour that interlock like pieces of a puzzle, while hints of texture enliven the sky and foliage.

    Overall, the work conveys a quiet nostalgia – an atmospheric balance between human habitation, architectural history, and the vast, timeless presence of the sea.

    Geometric Still Life

    £850

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking and brilliantly executed mid-century modernist style still life composition, executed in oil onto board.

    The central object that punctuates the composition is a light blue pitcher, whose elongated shape gives it a strong presence .Surrounding the pitcher are geometric shapes—a blue cube, a yellow block, and a lemon—that create a rhythm of forms around the central figure. The background consists of abstract, overlapping planes in warm as well as earthy tones – with shades of yellow, brown, red, and green, adding depth to the composition.

    This piece reflects the modernist focus on simplification and abstraction, capturing a scene through shapes, colours, and a deliberate absence of fine detail.

    Rather than blending, the artist has used defined colour areas that maintain the integrity of each shape and add to the painting’s geometric quality. The contrasting colours are arranged in a harmonious and cohesive manner, imbuing the work with liveliness.

    A white pitcher, a brass candleholder with a partially burned candle, and a blue-handled pan are depicted resting atop a dark wooden table. The background is muted green, providing a subdued contrast to the bold, simplified forms.

    The painting embraces a Cubist-inspired style, characterised by geometric abstraction and angular distortions. The objects are deconstructed into sharp-edged planes, lending the composition a sculptural quality.

    The colour palette is earthy and restrained, featuring shades of green, beige, blue, and brown, with accents of gold in the candleholder. The brushstrokes are expressive, adding depth and a sense of movement to the otherwise still arrangement.

  • Village Pathway

    Village Pathway

    £575

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking mid-century modernist painting that captures a female figure walking along a village pathway, gracefully balancing a vessel on her head, executed in oil onto board.

    The woman, dressed in a flowing blue skirt and dark top, is set against a backdrop of geometric, almost abstracted row of houses that recede rhythmically into the distance.

    Modernist in its ethos, the artist has reduced the scene into bold, flattened forms and simplified shapes. There’s a more structured feel in the angular rooftops and the faceted treatment of architecture and landscape, while the figure maintains a sense of movement and gesture.

    The colour palette is muted, with gentle contrasts between warm and cool tones. The bright blue of the skirt stands out as a focal point, anchoring the viewer’s eye.

    The paint is applied with deliberate, confident strokes – thick and flat in some areas, with visible texture. The brushwork emphasises shape and form over fine detail, enhancing the painting’s graphic, almost mosaic-like quality.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary wood frame with an inner cream border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has very minor scuffs.

    A mid-century figurative painting depicts a group of figures walking side by side through a quiet coastal village, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The suggestion of the sea can be seen in the background, framed by simple geometric rooftops and houses rendered in muted tones. The figures appear almost sculpted from the paint itself, evoking a sense of companionship.

    Executed in an expressive modernist style, the artist has used broad brushstrokes and thick impasto to build texture and depth. The palette is dominated by cool greys, muted blues, soft creams, and earthy neutrals, creating a subdued yet harmonious composition. The simplified forms and blurred facial features lend the work an introspective and contemplative atmosphere, placing emphasis on mood and structure over detail.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary wood floater frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has a small mark at its top right corner but this does not detract from its overall attractiveness.

    Cottages by the Coast

    £685

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A serene mid-century coastal landscape composition, painted in oil onto board by the established Swedish artist Richard Björklund (1897–1974), whose works have been exhibited in public collections including the National Museum in Stockholm, Moderna Museet in Stockholm, Malmo Museum, Ystads Art Museum, and others.

    this painting captures a cluster of whitewashed houses with red roofs nestled amongst greenery, leading down toward the open expanse of sea. A winding sandy path moves through the centre of the scene, guiding the viewer’s eye from the foreground village to the calm water and distant headlands on the horizon.

    Executed in a modernist mid-century style, the artist has reduced forms to bold, simplified shapes, giving the scene a structured yet tranquil quality. The emphasis is on composition and tonal balance rather than fine detail.

    The colour palette is harmonious with soft greys and muted blues dominating the sky and water. Deep greens define the trees and foliage, offset by creamy whites of the buildings and the warm terracotta and russet hues of the roofs.

    The brushwork is broad, flat, and assured, with blocks of colour laid down in an almost geometric manner. Visible, textured strokes lend energy and tactility to the surface, while the overall handling reinforces the sense of quiet order and calm in the scene.

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

  • Tulips in a Blue Vase

    Tulips in a Blue Vase

    £490

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very well executed floral still life composition, painted in oil onto board and dated 1947 on the reverse.

    This painting is a still life depicting a bouquet of tulips in a blue vase. The flowers have dark red and purple petals with white edges, and their stems and leaves are long and curved. The background features broad, textured brushstrokes in muted browns, blues, and purples, creating a moody atmosphere. The table surface is painted in light tones of cream and greenish hues, contrasting the darker backdrop.

    The colours in this painting don’t shout, they whisper, giving the painting a soft, contemplative silence. There’s a tangible calm, as if time has slowed down just long enough to notice the fleeting moment.

    The brushwork is loose yet deliberate, with visible strokes that suggest movement and texture. The artist seems to use a technique where the individual strokes build form rather than smooth blending, adding a painterly quality.

    Tulips, often associated with love and rebirth, are shown here slightly wilted and heavy—perhaps representing impermanence or the bittersweet nature of memory. The heavy lean of the stems feels like a surrender to gravity, a soft echo of time’s pull.

    This oil on board is presented in very well made wood frame with an inner brown border, which suits the painting impeccably. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Cacti by the Window

    Cacti by the Window

    £475

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An elegant mid-century still life that captures a charming scene of three potted plants arranged along a windowsill and silhouetted against an exterior scene of houses, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1947.

    The central cactus dominates the composition with its upright, almost sculptural form, flanked by 2 other leafy plants on its sides. Through the window, the viewer glimpses a townscape with brown and red buildings, softened by pale skies and winter-bare trees.

    Painted in an expressive style, the work fuses still life with urban landscape. It is representational but simplified, with a strong emphasis on shape, form, and the interplay between interior and exterior space. The artist captures not just the plants themselves, but also the mood of the scene – a quiet, contemplative moment of domestic life through the use of earthy muted shades.

    The brushwork is bold and textured, with a rough, impasto application that gives the surface a tactile quality. Forms are built up through broad, confident strokes, while details are pared back to essentials, creating a sense of rhythm and structure.

    This oil on board is beautifully presented in a well-suited wooden frame with an inner gilt border. The work itself is in good vintage condition, with two small pin holes to the top section when inspected closely (one at the middle of the top edge and another near the blossoming tree) – which do not detract from its overall impression. The frame is also in good condition with minor surface wear.

    Executed in an expressive, modern style, the artist has used visible, confident brushstrokes that create texture and a sense of vitality throughout the composition.

  • Teapot & Bottles

    Teapot & Bottles

    £485

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An expressive and painterly mid-century still life painting that presents a serene arrangement of everyday objects, executed in oil onto canvas.

    At the forefront sits a luminous white teapot, its rounded form catching light and contrasting with the tall, shadowy silhouettes of bottles behind it. The background features muted geometric shapes, suggesting furniture or architectural forms, further emphasising the structured balance of the composition.

    The artist has used a restrained palette of earthy browns, muted greys, soft creams, and cool blues, creating a subdued yet harmonious tonal range. The brushstrokes are confident and textural, with thick, layered applications of paint that bring a tactile quality to the surface. The strokes vary between broad, sweeping movements in the background and more controlled, angular marks on the objects, lending the painting a dynamic rhythm.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some very minor scuffing but this does not detract from its overall attractiveness.

  • Blue Bowl & Pears

    Blue Bowl & Pears

    £775

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A small but very striking still life composition, executed in tempera on board and dated 1978, by the established Swedish artist Eric Cederberg (1897-1984), whose artworks have been represented in several public and museum collections across Sweden.

    Small yet impactful in its composition, the painting presents a carefully balanced arrangement of fruit upon a wooden surface. At the centre sits a vivid cobalt-blue bowl, cradling a bright yellow lemon and a tightly clustered bunch of deep purple grapes, accented with a bold green leaf. Surrounding the bowl are five pears in varying tones of green and brown, their organic forms adding rhythm and balance to the composition.

    The artist has used a simplified, almost sculptural style, emphasising solid blocks of colour and clear outlines over intricate detail. The palette is bold and saturated, contrasting jewel-like purples and blues against earthy browns and greens, with the lemon’s intense yellow providing a sharp highlight. The brushwork is confident yet controlled, with smooth, flat applications of paint that create a sense of weight and presence.

    The background is rendered in horizontal bands of brown, giving a structured backdrop that contrasts with the roundness of the fruit.

    This tempera on board is presented in a well suited frame with an inner and outer gilt window. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Grapes & Pears

    Grapes & Pears

    £1,000

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A brilliantly executed and charming surrealist still life composition, executed in tempera on board and dated 1975, by the established Swedish artist Eric Cederberg (1897-1984), whose artworks have been represented in several public and museum collections across Sweden.

    The composition features a golden-brown pitcher placed centrally on a white cloth, flanked by a whole pear, a sliced pear revealing seeds and subtle gradients, and a tight cluster of purple grapes. A single green leaf adds a note of dynamism, curving gently toward the top of the board.

    Inviting viewers to revel in the simple beauty of everyday objects, the artist masterfully captures the essence of each form through his meticulous brushwork and keen attention to detail, as well as by simplifying the objects into bold, flat shapes.

    The palette is earthy yet vibrant: greens, deep purples, and rich browns dominate, balanced by creamy whites and subtle touches of mustard and blue-grey in the patterned background. This controlled colour harmony enhances the work’s visual cohesion and vintage charm.

    The brushwork is smooth and deliberate, with an even application of paint. The artist has prioritised form and contour over painterly expression, lending the work a clean, almost printed quality.

    This tempera on board is housed in a complementary silver frame with an inner linen border. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Maris

    Maris

    £555

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A enigmatic figurative oil painting that presents a striking, abstracted portrait of a lone figure, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1978.

    The subject is rendered with elongated, geometric features, their pale face standing starkly against a moody, layered background. The figure’s hair, painted in a deep, earthy rust-red, frames the face and flows downward, anchoring the composition.

    The style is boldly modernist, with an emphasis on simplified forms and blocks of colour rather than fine detail. The palette is restrained yet atmospheric: muted blue-greys dominate the ground, offset by the ochre-yellow of the garment and the rusty red of the hair. Subtle tonal variations and visible brushstrokes add texture and depth, giving the surface a raw, tactile quality.

    The brushwork is expressive and confident, with layered strokes that reveal the artist’s hand. Shadows and planes of colour are suggested rather than fully defined, creating a sense of mystery and introspection. The overall impression is one of quiet strength and contemplative stillness, in keeping with the aesthetics of mid-century abstraction.

    This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary slim wood frame. Both painting and frame are in good vintage condition.

  • Pear & Pitcher

    Pear & Pitcher

    £510

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An elegant mid-century still life composition that presents a pared-back arrangement of a single green pear alongside a white pitcher, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The painting is striking in its simplicity, emphasising the quiet relationship between form, line, and negative space.

    Painted in a restrained modernist style, the artist has used clean, confident brushstrokes and a limited palette of muted greys, soft blues, and creamy whites, punctuated by the fresh, vivid green of the pear. The play of shadow and light across the tabletop introduces subtle tonal variations, while the black accents on the pitcher handle and base lend contrast and visual rhythm.

    The brushwork is deliberate yet unfussy – broad, smooth strokes for background and surface planes, and more defined, darker lines for the outlines and details. The result is a composition that feels at once minimal and contemplative.

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

    A bold and enigmatic mid-century figurative portrait, executed in oil onto board and dated 1957.

    The composition depicts a simplified and abstracted figure with a frontal, mask-like face. The facial features are distorted, emphasising expressive shapes and tones rather than realism. Containing elements of expressionism and abstraction, there is a strong emphasises on emotional resonance, as opposed to detailed representation.

    The brushwork is bold and expressive, with thick, impasto strokes that create a textured surface.
