  • Urban Blocks

    Urban Blocks

    £685

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking mid-century abstract cityscape rendered in a restrained muted palette, executed in oil onto board.

    The painting captures an imagined urban landscape reduced to essential form and shadow. Angular blocks suggest rooftops, facades, and stacked buildings, layered tightly across a sloping terrain beneath a distant hill.

    The artist has used deliberate, textured brushstrokes to create architectural weight and spatial tension. The colour scheme leans toward steely greys, deep charcoal, slate blue, and hints of taupe, giving the composition a quiet, contemplative tone. Despite its abstraction, the work holds a firm sense of structure and rhythm, reflecting mid-century modernist ideals of simplification and form.

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

  • The Shape of Thought (Very Large)

    The Shape of Thought (Very Large)

    £995

    Available

    Free UK Delivery Only.

    A large and outstanding mid century modernist abstract figurative composition in oil, painted onto board 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 presents a bold and dynamic interpretation of the human form, fragmented into intersecting shapes and saturated blocks of colour. At the centre, a green torso-like shape anchors the composition, surrounded by gestural planes of midnight blue, ivory white, forest green, sky grey, and cerulean. Hints of yellow and red punctuate the palette with energy, while the heavy use of impasto and palette knife work brings a sense of raw physicality to the surface.

    Though abstract, the overlapping forms and contours evoke the impression of a seated or contemplative figure, abstracted almost to the point of pure form. The figure emerges from and dissolves into the background, suggesting emotional introspection or transformation. The painter’s brushwork is assertive yet nuanced, blending thickly applied oil with moments of scraped texture and layered opacity.

    In both its materiality and expressive ambiguity, the painting speaks to the search for identity through abstraction, emotion, and gesture.

    Close to a metre in height, this painting will make a statement piece in any interior.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a very well-suited hessian lined frame with an inner silver border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has minor scuffing. 

    Size: 99 x 78 cm (including frame)

    Red Roofs

    £480

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A mid century modernist village street scene, painted in oil onto board.

    The composition is symmetrical and well-balanced, featuring a pathway that leads the viewer’s eye through a quiet village street flanked by buildings and tall trees.

    The colour palette is composed of soft, muted tones—primarily earthy reds, blues, and greens. The red-roofed buildings on the left and the larger  structure on the right frame the scene, while the trees provide vertical balance and a touch of organic softness. The sky is lightly clouded, contributing to a calm and tranquil atmosphere.

    The style is precise and illustrative, with clean lines and simplified forms that maintain depth and perspective. Overall, the painting conveys a quiet charm and a sense of order, likely capturing a European rural or small-town setting with architectural elements suggesting Northern or Central European influences.

    The White Cottage

    £420

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A small but impactful mid century modernist landscape composition, painted in oil onto canvas.

    This painting is a charming impressionistic landscape depicting a rural countryside scene. The composition centers on a whitewashed cottage with a thatched roof, nestled among lush greenery and trees, under a bright blue sky.

    The painting style is expressive, with thick, impasto brushstrokes and bold, earthy colours. Greens, ochres, and browns dominate the foliage, while dashes of blue, red, and yellow add liveliness and depth. A winding dirt path leads the viewer’s eye from the foreground toward the cottage, inviting a sense of journey or nostalgia.

    On the right, a darker barn or outbuilding contrasts with the sunlit grass and cottage, enhancing the warm, pastoral atmosphere. The overall mood is tranquil and idyllic, evoking a peaceful rural retreat painted with energetic, textured strokes.

    £435

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An expressive and richly textured mid-century still life that captures the quiet composure of everyday objects, executed in oil onto board.

    At the heart of the composition is a weathered metal bucket, its rough, encrusted surface rendered with thick impasto and moody tones of charcoal, slate blue, and rust. A ladle leans from within, its handle jutting diagonally, adding a sense of tension and movement. The backdrop features a muted yellow and pale green wall, juxtaposed with a roughly painted white panel adorned with loosely defined horseshoes or hooks.

    The painting focuses on bold, tactile brushstrokes and the expressive potential of everyday objects. The artist uses a restrained palette – with dynamic textural application, evoking a sense of age, labour, and quiet domestic resilience.

  • Seaside Passage

    Seaside Passage

    £495

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking modernist style coastal landscape with figure oil painting, by Swedish artist Eric Elfvén (1921–2008), whose works have been exhibited in public collections including the Moderna Museet in Stockholm, Jönköping Museum, Borås Art Museum, and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.

    The painting presents a solitary figure walking through an archway toward a sunlit terrace overlooking the sea. The composition is rendered in bold, flattened planes of colour – sand, blue, soft cream, and oceanic blue – evoking both architectural space and emotional stillness.

    The artist has used a minimalist palette and simplified forms to reduce the scene to its essential elements, allowing light and shadow to define the narrative. Brushstrokes are broad and deliberate, with slight texture in the ground planes suggesting the warmth of a Mediterranean setting. This evocative work captures a fleeting, almost cinematic moment of solitude and transition.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some scuffs at its corners.

  • Still Life with Green Bottles

    Still Life with Green Bottles

    £445

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A charming modernist still life painting that captures a domestic tabletop scene with pared-down elegance and geometric order, executed in oil onto canvas.

    Two green bottles, a cluster of green apples, and a white bowl of leafy greens sit alongside a robust earthenware pot, all arranged on a grey placemat against a backdrop of vertical yellow stripes. In the distance, two halved eggs rest symmetrically on a narrow shelf, contributing to the balanced composition.

    The style is distinctly modernist, marked by flattened forms, strong outlines, and a harmonious structure. The artist has reduced everyday objects to simplified, almost architectural shapes – echoing the mid-century preoccupation with abstraction and clarity of form.

    The colour palette is rich and warm, dominated by yellows, olives, and soft blues, with accents of terracotta and cream. Brushstrokes are smooth and controlled, lending a calm, deliberate rhythm to the surface. This is a quiet composition that celebrates order, stillness, and the formal beauty of the mundane.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some scuffing.

    The Striped Cloth

    £480

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An vibrant mid-century interior still life painting,  executed in oil onto canvas.

    The composition presents a warmly lit domestic scene, featuring a hanging terracotta planter with cascading green foliage, a deep green bowl, and a striped textile draped casually across a tabletop. The backdrop is a moody, textured wash of blue, suggesting a window or a darkened interior wall, offering contrast to the brighter foreground.

    Executed in a modernist style, the composition emphasises flat planes of colour and simplified forms. The palette is rich but controlled – yellow, navy blue, forest green, and earthy reds dominate the scene. The artist has used broad, confident brushstrokes and has left traces of underpainting and canvas texture visible, giving the work a spontaneous, tactile quality. The interplay between geometric shapes and organic curves imbues this still life with both structure and intimacy.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary gilt frame.  The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has very minor scuffs, but is in good condition overall.

    Winter Skyline

    £630

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A nostalgic and subdued modernist cityscape that captures the quiet hush of a snow-blanketed town beneath a pale winter sky, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1970.

    The composition presents an elevated perspective over a geometric spread of rooftops, their forms simplified into broad, angular planes. The steeple of a distant monument anchors the skyline, rising into a misty atmosphere that suggests early morning or dusk.

    Rendered in oil, the artist has used a restrained, muted palette dominated by subdued shades of blues, purples, yellows, and reds. The snow is suggested by broad swathes of white and pale grey, while buildings emerge in solid, shadowy blocks, conveying mass and volume without intricate detail. The brushstrokes are confident, reinforcing the architectural rigidity of the scene.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has scuffing present at its lower left corner.

  • Ancient Whispers

    Ancient Whispers

    £485

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A surreal and richly symbolic painting, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1991.

    The painting presents an enigmatic architectural interior scene that feels suspended between the past and the surreal. At the lower left lies a creature with piercing blue eyes, emerging and integrated into the patterned textile ground. Scattered elements including a large clay pot, transparent orbs, and an engraved oval tablet evoke archaeological relics, rituals, and memory.

    Rendered in a meticulous, linear texture, the architectural backdrop features soft arches and doorways. The entire composition is enclosed within a dominant arch motif, adding a quiet rhythm and continuity. The colour palette blends warm earth tones – terracotta and sandy neutrals  – offset with accents of blue and silver-grey.

    The brushwork is tight and deliberate, with fine lines etched almost like woven threads, giving the surface a tapestry-like quality. The result is a layered and contemplative piece that blurs the boundaries between memory, myth, and architecture.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary frame. The painting has a very small area of paint loss (as shown), but the paint layer is very stable overall. The frame has minor scuffing.

  • The Rail Yards at Dusk

    The Rail Yards at Dusk

    £565

    Available

    Free UK Shipping Only

    An evocative modernist cityscape captured at dusk, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1975.

    As dimming light softens the urban edges, the artist has reduced architectural forms into geometric planes – warehouses, blocky high-rises, and rows of parked railcars — giving the scene a rhythmic, almost abstracted structure. The visual repetition of lampposts, silhouetted trees, and building facades hints at both the order and the monotony of this cityscape.

    Rendered in a subdued palette of dusky blues, muted greys, burnt orange, and deep maroons, the painting conveys the quiet atmosphere of a city settling into evening. A band of still water in the foreground reflects the urban glow and breaks up the composition with cool, shimmering blues.

    The brushwork is deliberate and textured, with blocky applications of paint that build the scene from tonal shifts rather than fine detail. This confident handling of light and shape suggests a moment observed from a distance – contemplative, grounded, and imbued with quiet power.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary slim wood frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some loss as shown.

    The Shifting Sky

    £810

    Available

    Free UK Shipping Only.

    A large and striking mid-century modernist abstract landscape composed in rich, geometric swathes of colour, executed in oil onto canvas.

    This lively painting has abstracted a landscape scene into bold, horizontal blocks that suggest cultivated fields and farmhouses nestled among trees. The land is rendered in earthy greens, dusty pinks and mauves, transitioning toward cooler blues and lavenders in the sky.

    The brushstrokes are broad, confident, and thickly applied. The sky dominates the upper half with layered streaks of cloud in muted purples, creams, and blues, evoking a moody, almost cinematic atmosphere. The artist’s minimalist approach to detail creates a sense of depth and serenity, inviting the viewer to contemplate the rhythm and quiet beauty of the countryside.

    This oil on board is housed in a very well-suited ridged frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some surface wear to inner silver border (as shown), as well as a small loss to its upper left corner (as shown).

  • What the Mirror Saw

    What the Mirror Saw

    £775

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A quietly arresting figurative painting that captures a fleeting, introspective moment seen through a reflection of a mirror, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1975.

    A solitary figure stands before the mirror, partially obscured by reflection and shadow, dissolving into the textured surface of the paint. The viewer becomes part of the act of looking, drawn into the layered spatial tension between the real and the reflected.

    The mirror reveals a richly hued interior behind the subject – a warm orange -toned room with a red chair tucked casually to one side – hinting at the domestic life unfolding just beyond view. The cool white wall outside the mirror’s edge contrasts with the golden glow within, creating a striking division between inner and outer worlds.

    Executed in a bold, gestural style, the painting features expressive brushstrokes and texture. The palette balances cool with warmer earthy tones, while the confident abstraction of form imbues the scene with both intimacy and ambiguity.

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

  • At the Counter

    At the Counter

    £1,050

    Available

    Free UK shipping only.

    A large and compelling mid century modernist abstract figurative composition in oil, painted onto board 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 scene captures three stylised figures possibly engaged in an exchange at the checkout – a familiar ritual rendered with striking simplicity and emotional weight.

    The central figure, dressed in black, appears to be a shopper in mid-transaction, while the figure in pale blue behind the counter suggests a cashier. A third, more ambiguously defined figure stands nearby, perhaps another customer or a child. The figures are abstracted, skilfully reduced to essential shapes.

    Thick impasto brushstrokes and rich textural layering give the work a tactile presence. The palette is earthy and architectural – orange, muted greens, brick reds, and cool greys – punctuated by flashes of white, lemon yellow, and cobalt blue, adding moments of vibrancy to the otherwise grounded tones.

    The composition is rhythmic and architectural, with geometric planes converging to form an abstracted treatment of space and perspective. The flattened forms and overlapping fields of colour speak to the artist’s modernist sensibility — elevating the ordinary to the iconic.

    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 scuffing.

  • St Ives Head I (Very Large)

    St Ives Head I (Very Large)

    £1,400

    Available

    Free UK delivery only.

    A very large and atmospheric abstract landscape painting, executed in oil onto board by contemporary British artist Ian Mood.

    This abstract oil painting of St Ives Head conveys a powerful impression of the Cornish landscape through bold colour blocks and expressive brushwork. The composition is dominated by a strong horizontal division:

    The lower portion features lush, vibrant greens, suggestive of the headland’s grassy terrain. These greens are layered and varied, with hints of dark shadows and occasional streaks of red and orange adding depth and movement. A sweeping form of deep black and charcoal arcs through the upper and middle sections, perhaps alluding to the rocky outcrop of St Ives Head or the moody Atlantic shadows. This shape anchors the piece and creates dramatic contrast. Surrounding these darker masses, icy blues and muted whites evoke the sky and sea, with the brushwork ranging from smooth to vigorously textured. Pops of pink and red in fine linear marks add visual interest and energetic tension across the central area.

    The painting is both abstract and landscape-inspired, distilling the raw essence of the coastal headland into expressive colour fields and gestural marks. It reflects the elemental forces of land, sea, and weather typical of St Ives, rendered in a deeply personal, modernist style.

    This very large oil on board is housed in a complementary light grey frame.  Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An intimate interior still life painting that presents a quiet tableau of everyday objects, rendered in a restrained yet evocative modernist style, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1974.

    A pair of vintage binoculars and dark-lensed sunglasses rest casually on a softly draped white cloth atop a warm wooden surface. Above the table hangs a minimalist line drawing of a vase, framed within the composition to add visual balance and conceptual layering.

    The artist has used a muted palette of cream, olive, and greyish lavender tones, lending the piece a contemplative atmosphere. The brushwork is deliberate and refined, with soft gradations in the background that contrast against the sharper, sculptural treatment of the objects. Shadows and textures are subtly modulated, evoking both stillness and presence.

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A soothing mid-century modernist painting that captures an abstracted waterfront scene rendered with bold geometric blocks and restrained tonal contrasts, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1968.

    The viewer’s perspective is elevated, possibly from a balcony or overpass, looking out across a harbour populated with moored boats and a white ferry gliding through calm waters.

    The artist has used a flattened, semi-cubist approach to space and form, using simplified shapes and thick, deliberate brushstrokes to construct the architecture and landscape. A palette of muted greys, brown, rust, and soft blues evokes an overcast or wintry atmosphere, while the warm orange of the lower rooftops adds grounding contrast.

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

    Interaction

    £510

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A vibrant geometric abstract composition that explores form and interaction, executed in tempera onto canvas and dated 1991.

    The painting features a dynamic arrangement of amoebic shapes in overlapping layers. The subject matter is intentionally non-representational, evoking the energy of human presence or social exchange through softened silhouettes that seem to drift, merge, or dance within a flat pictorial space.

    Rendered in bold blocks of solid colour – striking red and orange, yellow, cobalt blue, and deep plum – the forms float atop a simplified two-tone background of blue and green, suggestive of sky and earth. The palette is both playful and intentional, using contrast to create visual depth without shadows or gradients.

    Brushstrokes are smooth and minimally textured, allowing the flatness and precision of each colour field to hold compositional tension. The overall effect is a harmonious yet enigmatic piece that invites viewers to contemplate the relationships between shape, space, and colour.

    This tempera on canvas is housed in a complementary slim wood frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some marks (as pictured).

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A vibrant mid-century modernist abstract painting that captures the essence of a dynamic landscape through expressive colour and bold, gestural form, executed in oil onto canvas.

    Angular hills in deep burgundy, forest green, and charcoal anchor the composition, while slender white tree trunks stretch vertically across a kaleidoscopic backdrop.

    The trees, with their loosely rendered, wind-blown canopies of green, sway dramatically, suggesting motion and energy. The background unfolds in blocks of pastel and saturated hues – blue, lavender, peach, lemon yellow, and vivid cyan – creating a sense of fragmented light and spatial ambiguity.

    Executed in lively, expressive brushstrokes and confident swaths of colour, the work evokes both the emotional resonance of nature and the structural experimentation of modernist form. The artist’s bold palette and rhythmic composition echo the influence of abstraction while retaining a distinctly personal and poetic sensibility.

    The artist has used a muted, harmonious palette of pastel tones – pale blue, soft yellow, sage green, and creamy white – punctuated by gentle accents of orange. Broad, smooth brushstrokes contrast with areas of stippled texture, creating depth and movement while maintaining an overall sense of calm.

    Coastal Path

    £740

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very atmospheric and expressive landscape painting, executed in oil onto board by contemporary British artist Ian Mood.

    It is a dynamic, abstracted landscape that captures the essence of walking along a windswept shoreline trail. It blends expressive brushwork, shifting textures, and a vivid, elemental palette to evoke both the physical and emotional experience of the coastline.

    Pink dashes and shapes dance across the centre, adding rhythm and possibly indicating human presence, wildflowers, or directional markers on a path. The brushwork is loose, textural, and emotionally charged, capturing fleeting impressions over literal depiction.]

    Overall, the painting conveys solitude, discovery, and elemental energy. It’s less about representing a specific location and more about evoking the feeling of being immersed in nature—the wind on your face, the shifting weather, the wide horizon ahead. It celebrates the freedom and introspection of walking the edge between land and sea.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary white frame.  Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

  • Enclosure

    Enclosure

    £890

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A large, rich and vivid abstract composition, executed in oil onto board by contemporary British artist Ian Mood.

    This vivid abstract composition  is defined by bold colour fields and energetic gesture, evoking the sensation of boundary, structure, and containment within nature or memory.

    It is dominated by a large central mass of deep red, bordered by a sharp vertical white line on the left and a curved pale blue line sweeping across the middle. To the right, a vibrant orange block contrasts with cooler greens and earth tones in the lower and left portions. The composition is off-center and dynamic, with the eye pulled toward the intersection of curves and edges.

    The brushstrokes are expressive and textural, with areas of scraped paint, blending, and layering giving a sense of physical depth.

    The painting could allude to land boundaries, personal space, or emotional states—open to interpretation but rich in atmosphere. There’s a sense of tactile exploration and spatial ambiguity, making the piece both visceral and contemplative.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary white frame.  Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

    Size:  70 x 70 cm (including frame)

  • Snowy Rooftops

    Snowy Rooftops

    £425

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A small yet evocative mid-century abstract painting that presents an interpretation of a wintry urban landscape, executed in oil onto board.

    Likely viewed from an elevated vantage point, the composition depicts snow-covered rooftops and architectural forms simplified into bold planes and tonal contrasts, hinting at chimneys, dormers, and stone facades under a muted sky.

    Rendered in a restrained palette of cold greys, browns, and beiges, the painting evokes the quietude of a snow-blanketed city. The brushwork is dynamic yet deliberate – broad, textured strokes create rhythmic abstractions of built forms, while impasto accents add depth and tactile intensity. The work borders on abstraction but retains enough figuration to suggest a real, lived environment – familiar yet stylised.

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

    Size: 32.5 x 32.5 cm (including frame)

  • Southern Shore

    Southern Shore

    £740

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very atmospheric and expressive abstract landscape painting, executed in oil onto board by contemporary British artist Ian Mood.

    It captures the emotional essence of a coastal environment rather than a literal depiction, using abstract forms and a painterly style to evoke the energy, complexity, and richness of the scene.

    Earthy tones of red, brown, black, and orange dominate the central form, possibly alluding to rock formations, cliffs, or human structures. The bottom area is awash with cool greys, off-whites, and hints of gold, possibly representing a beach or tidal flat.

    The atmosphere is introspective yet vigorous, echoing nature’s forces—wind, water, erosion—while remaining grounded in abstract expressionism.

    The style is gestural and semi-abstract, reminiscent of mid-20th-century European modernism, where landscape becomes a conduit for emotional expression.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary white frame.  Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

    Size: 65.5 x 65.5 cm (including frame)

  • Still Life with Chalice

    Still Life with Chalice

    £785

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking mid-century modernist still life composition, executed in oil onto board and dated 1956.

    Central to the work is a dark green bottle and a silver-toned chalice, rendered with thick brushstrokes and strong contouring. A pair of oranges rest in the foreground, its saturated tones adding a burst of warmth against the cool tonalities.

    The composition is built on interlocking planes of colour – muted greens and blues, yellow, and greys – forming an almost Cubist backdrop that suggests a tabletop and surrounding walls. The brushwork is expressive and textured, with visible strokes that give the surface a sculptural quality. The use of shadow and contrast imbues the otherwise abstracted objects with weight and presence.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary white frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has slight wear to its edges as shown, but is in good condition overall.

  • Zennor

    Zennor

    £890

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A large and very atmospheric landscape painting, painted onto board by contemporary British artist Ian Mood.

    This semi-abstract landscape powerfully captures the wild, changeable atmosphere of the Cornish coast, likely inspired by the moody environment near the village of Zennor in southwest England.

    The sky dominates the composition with a bold expanse of turquoise blue, suggesting a clearing or break in weather. A large, dark grey cloud mass occupies the centre, rendered with sweeping, smudged strokes that create a sense of motion and tension. Deeper greens, browns, and black at the bottom evoke moorland or rugged earth, painted with energetic brushwork and scraped textures.

    The painting exudes a dramatic, elemental energy, evoking the feeling of standing exposed to the sky on coastal high ground, just before or after a storm. It feels both expansive and intimate, caught between serenity and threat—hallmarks of Cornwall’s raw natural beauty.

    This painting  is housed in a complementary white frame.  Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

  • Chair by the Wall

    Chair by the Wall

    £765

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking mid-century modernist style composition of an interior scene, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1948 by the established Swedish artist Rune Janson (1918-2004), who’s artworks have been displayed at the National Museum in Stockholm, Moderna Museet in Stockholm, Gothenburg Art Museum and other museums in Sweden and the National Gallery in Oslo and the Centre Georges Pompidou Paris.

    The painting captures a simplified interior scene anchored by a solitary wooden chair, rendered in bold, gestural strokes. Positioned against a backdrop of abstracted architectural forms, the composition distills a domestic setting into its essential shapes and tones.

    Modernist in its ethos and executed in an expressive style, the artist has used wide, confident brushstrokes and a palette of muted shades including purple, orange and blue. The chair – angular and minimally detailed – is positioned diagonally, its presence both grounded and abstract, inviting the viewer into a contemplative space.

    The painting’s flat planes and rhythmic blocks of colour speak to the influence of European modernism, where figuration merges seamlessly with abstraction. The brushwork is raw and tactile, allowing the texture of the paint and canvas to resonate with emotional immediacy.

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

  • Coastal Curve

    Coastal Curve

    £750

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A serene and uplifting mid-century modernist coastal landscape painting, executed in oil onto board.

    The painting captures a sweeping coastal road as it bends gently toward the sea. Modernist in its ethos, the composition is defined by its bold simplification of form – trees, path, and shoreline reduced to expressive, geometric shapes in contrasting colour.

    The brushwork is confident and flat, with areas of solid colour laid down in deliberate blocks, creating a sense of stylised stillness. Trees appear as abstracted vertical forms, their trunks and canopies subtly suggested rather than rendered in detail.

    Muted tones of green, grey, and earthy taupe dominate the land, while the sea is rendered in serene blues punctuated by white sails, adding rhythm and motion to the horizon. The sky, a dusty olive-grey, creates a harmonious counterbalance to the grounded palette below.

    This oil on board is housed in very well suited wood frame. there is some wear on the left edge of the painting where it meets the frame, but the painting is in good vintage condition overall. The frame has very minor scuffing.

  • Village Across the Water

    Village Across the Water

    £550

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very atmospheric mid century modernist landscape composition, painted in oil onto board and dated 1957.

    This painting features an abstracted coastal village scene, likely seen from across a body of water. The forms are geometric and simplified, with visible palette knife texture and thick impasto paint application, giving the surface a tactile quality.

    The rooftops are rendered in soft peach and pinkish tones, contrasted against cooler shades of grey, blue, and violet that suggest the sky and sea. The artist uses layered horizontal bands and angular structures to define the architecture and landscape, while the brushwork and impasto emphasize a modernist, impressionistic abstraction. The buildings are mostly blocky and flat, but their arrangement and the subtle changes in colour imply depth and perspective.

    The overall mood is tranquil and muted, evoking a foggy or overcast day in a quiet seaside village. Despite the abstraction, there’s a clear sense of structure and place, with the rooftops forming a cosy cluster amidst the misty surroundings.

    This is a serene and sophisticated landscape, abstracted to emphasize form, tone, and texture over realism, likely by an artist influenced by modernist and post-impressionist sensibilities.

    The painting is housed in a very well made and complementary frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.
