Golden Hour Fields

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A charming and beautifully textured mid-century landscape painting that captures a tranquil rural scene rendered in a distinctly modernist style, and executed in oil onto board.

At the heart of the composition lies a small red barn, nestled among tall trees that punctuate the gentle, undulating terrain. A ribbon of pale grey road leads the viewer’s eye diagonally through the canvas, bisecting fields of green and ochre that suggest cultivated land in late summer.

The artist has used broad, expressive brushstrokes and a subtly geometric structure to the forms – typical of the mid-century approach to simplifying nature into bold planes and rhythmic patterns. The colour palette is rich but muted, with earthy greens, clay reds, greys, and soft sky blues evoking a nostalgic calm. Layers of thick impasto and visible directional strokes bring energy and movement to the otherwise serene countryside, giving the painting a textured, almost sculptural surface.

This work is a beautiful testament to the artist’s ability to distil a landscape into its essential forms, while still conveying warmth, place, and time.

This oil on board is housed in a unique gilt frame with a red inner border which complements the painting very well. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has minor scuffs.

By Candlelight
£415
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A poignant mid-century still life composition that evokes solitude and reflection, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1977.

The painting presents a tall, elegant candlestick with a melting white candle beside a thick, well-worn book. A dark ribbon bookmark drapes softly over the book’s cover. The composition is set against a deep red background and a muted olive-grey surface, creating a rich contrast that draws the viewer into the stillness of the scene.

Executed in a restrained style, the artist has used minimal detailing and flat spatial planes, allowing texture and form to take precedence. The brushstrokes are deliberate and slightly coarse, especially in the candle’s flickering flame and the textured surface of the book’s pages, lending the piece a tactile quality. The muted, earthy palette enhances the painting’s meditative tone.

This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary wood frame with an inner gilded border. The painting has two small areas of paint loss as shown in the close ups. The frame is in good condition.

By the Waterbank
£495
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A large and atmospheric mid-century landscape that presents a tranquil riverside scene with a subtle narrative undertone, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1952.

Two figures rest on the grassy bank of a still canal, their gazes drawn toward a moored boat and a drawbridge in the distance. The composition is balanced by low farm buildings on the left and the soft sprawl of countryside under a cool, clouded sky.

Executed in a loose, expressive style, the brushwork is thick and confident, capturing texture and movement, especially in the turbulent sky and reflective water. The palette is dominated by muted tones: steely blues, sage greens, earthy browns, and soft greys, evoking a moody, contemplative atmosphere. The overall effect is quietly cinematic – a fleeting moment of stillness rendered with emotional restraint and painterly clarity.

This large oil on canvas is housed in a complementary ridged gilt frame with an inner linen border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has scuffs.

Whispers of Winter
£455
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A serene mid-century semi-abstract landscape painting, executed in oil onto canvas.

A snow-covered countryside is rendered with serene restraint. A distant village emerges from the soft whites and ochres of the fields, its clustered rooftops and warm-toned structures punctuating the pale horizon. Subtle hints of rust, terracotta, and charcoal create visual rhythm among the buildings and trees, while the sky is quietly layered in muted lilac and blue.

The composition is minimalist yet evocative, with gestural brushstrokes that suggest rather than define form. The artist has used a refined palette of soft creams, icy blues, and mellow earth tones to conjure the essence of a winter scene without becoming literal. The loose brushwork and atmospheric perspective evoke a feeling of quietude and stillness. The overall impression is one of contemplative calm, where memory and landscape dissolve into one.

This oil on canvas is housed in a beautiful dark grey wood frame with an inner linen border. The painting has some areas of craquelure present, but the paint layer is very stable overall. The frame has minor scuffs at its inner section but is in very good condition overall.

Geometric Collage with 4 Circles
£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.

It features a vertical alignment of four textured circles—each a slightly different hue of earthy reds, browns, and burgundy—centred against a richly layered, abstract background of burnt orange, yellow, and sienna tones. The tactile surface gives a weathered, organic feel, and the texture of the book bindings adds depth and history to the composition.

The visual symmetry of the circles contrasts with the expressive and imperfect background, inviting viewers to reflect on order within disorder or harmony within age and decay.

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.

Coastal Descent
£545
Available

Free UK shipping Only.

A very soothing mid-century modernist painting that captures a sun-drenched coastal village, executed in oil onto canvas.

The viewer is positioned atop a steep stone path that winds between whitewashed walls, terracotta roofs, and geometric stone facades, descending toward the vivid blue sea. Three figures clad in dark robes – possibly local women carrying items on their heads – add a quiet human rhythm to the otherwise architectural scene.

Rendered in flattened planes and simplified forms, the painting embraces a distinctly modernist approach. The brushwork is thick and confident, with textures and scumbled surfaces lending weight to the cobbled path and sky alike. The palette is subdued yet radiant: earthy browns and clay reds contrast with greys, chalky whites, and Mediterranean blues, invoking both warmth and distance.

This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary distressed style wood frame. The painting has small areas of craquelure present, but the paint layer is stable and it is in good condition overall.

Size: 64 x 79.5 cm (including frame)

Sunlit Facades
£440
Available

Free UK, Europe & Singapore Shipping.

A charming mid-century modernist painting that captures a quiet village street in Spain, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1958.

The composition is anchored by whitewashed buildings with yellow and terracotta roofs, stacked geometrically against a bright sky. The perspective flattens the scene slightly, lending a graphic, almost cubist sensibility.

Rendered in oil, the artist has used confident, blocky brushstrokes to define shadows and forms. Angular planes and muted earth tones – sage green, charcoal grey, and hints of warm brown—contrast with brilliant whites and a crisp blue sky. The painting captures the play of sunlight on architecture, with simplified details like shuttered windows, steep stone steps, and doors suggested rather than articulated.

There is a distinct sense of rhythm in the repetition of rooftops and telegraph lines that echo across the canvas.

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

A Moment to Herself
£495
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A mid-century figurative painting painted in 1955 that captures a contemplative figure absorbed in quiet work, seated near a sunlit window, executed in oil onto canvas.

The subject is cloaked in soft whites and muted yellows. Her back is turned, head bowed slightly, hands poised at a table – offering a moment of private introspection or perhaps diligent creation.

Executed in a restrained, modernist style, the composition flattens and abstracts the figure and environment into planes of diffused light and soft geometry. The painting evokes a hushed, almost spiritual atmosphere, reinforced by the play of cool blues and dusky purples that mingle with the warm earth tones of the interior.

The artist’s brushwork is loose yet deliberate, layering paint in broad, textural strokes that blur the lines between body and space. The window, though suggested rather than rendered in full detail, casts a cool radiance into the room, lending a structural balance and emotional focal point.

This is a quietly moving piece – imbued with the kind of everyday poetry that typified mid-century figurative painting, where solitude, domesticity, and light become the true subjects.

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

Bouquet in Afternoon Light
£450
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A striking mid-century still life that captures a delicate bouquet of pink, blue, and white flowers arranged in a rounded ceramic vase, placed atop a bold, geometric tablecloth, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1957.

The composition radiates warmth and domestic intimacy, as slanting beams of golden light suggest a late afternoon interior illuminated by natural sunlight filtering through blinds.

The style is clean and structured, yet painterly, with evident brushstrokes that lend a tactile quality to the petals and textiles. The artist has juxtaposed organic floral forms with sharp-angled background planes and a checkered tablecloth, creating a subtle tension between softness and structure.

The colour palette is both earthy and vibrant – olive greens, ochres, and mustard tones set a calm backdrop for the vivid magentas, cobalt blues, and whites of the flowers. The folds of the tablecloth and the reflected light on the vase are rendered with sensitivity to form and texture, giving the work a composed yet inviting atmosphere.

This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary hessian-lined frame with an inner gilt window. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

Dream Reflex
£1,150
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A brilliantly executed and compelling evocative 1987 figurative interior painting that captures a contemplative moment shared between three figures set within a softly abstracted studio environment, by Finnish postwar artist Marjatta Sarasalo (1930 – 2006).

Sarasalo’s paintings have a very distinctive style, which incorporate line drawings of figures on very textured backgrounds as seen in this piece. Here’s the bodies have been rendered in a delicate, linear style – each figure outlined with expressive black contour lines against a textured, ochre-toned ground.

Their poses are relaxed yet poised: one sits cross-legged in profile, another stands beside her, while the third looms gently in the background, creating a rhythm of human presence that feels both classical and modern.

Executed with a refined palette of warm sand, muted green, pale rose, and chalky white, the composition is harmonised by vertical bands of colour that frame and anchor the figures, suggesting architectural planes or light filtering through curtains. The layered surface – built up with dry, rough brushstrokes and subtle scumbling—imbues the work with a tactile, fresco-like quality.

The painting’s quiet grandeur and subdued palette speak to a modernist sensitivity, where figuration, abstraction, and texture merge in serene dialogue.

This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has a small nick to its left edge but is in good condition overall.

Facade in Focus
£495
Available

Free UK Shipping Only

A striking street scene that depicts a neighbourhood with robust, urban buildings rendered in bold linear rhythm, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1974.

The façades are portrayed in a schematic and stylised manner, as strong black outlines segment the pale grey and white surfaces. Set against a smooth grey street with cobblestone detailing, the scene is framed by brick pillars and a wrought-iron fence, suggesting a modest residential area. A lone tree, ablaze with orange and green leaves, punctuates the structured composition and introduces a vivid contrast—perhaps hinting at early autumn.

Executed in a modernist style, the work is characterised by its simplified forms, matte application, and confident brushwork. There is little modulation or blending – colours are laid down decisively, giving the piece a graphic, almost print-like clarity. The result is a striking yet quiet depiction of place, both grounded in reality and filtered through a stylised, personal lens.

This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has minor scuffs, particularly at its top left corner.

Haystacks by the Gate
£400
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A charming mid-century landscape that captures a quiet rural scene under an expansive sky, executed in oil onto board.

To the left, several golden haystacks rise against the horizon, their rounded forms accented by loosely placed poles, hinting at agricultural life and seasonal rhythms. A road leads the viewer’s eye into the middle distance, where a simple wooden gate opens toward a countryside beyond.

Executed in a restrained and muted palette, the composition reflects a serene pastoral atmosphere. The brushwork is gentle and impressionistic, with visible textures in the sky and fields that lend the painting a sense of movement and authenticity. Delicate textures in areas such as the haystacks and road adds tactile interest without overwhelming the tranquil mood.

This oil on board is housed in a complementary linen-lined wood frame with and inner and outer gilt border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has light scuffing, as well as a chip at its bottom edge.

Structural View
£530
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A compelling mid-century modernist urban landscape composition, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1956.

The painting captures a quiet residential street scene as observed from behind a structural steel framework – perhaps the interior of a train, or a station canopy. The painting offers a fragmented urban perspective, with rooftops, chimneys, and facades clustered together under a brooding sky. The central teal-blue support beam divides the composition, creating a dynamic interplay between structure and scenery.

Bold, sculptural brushstrokes and an expressive use of impasto lend a tactile richness to the scene. The palette leans cool, dominated by blue-greens and dusky greys, punctuated by muted maroons, browns, and pale yellows that bring warmth to the architectural forms.

This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary silver frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. There is some light scuffing to the frame, but it is in good condition overall.

Sunlit Cart
£510

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A lively mid-century modernist style landscape 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.

At the heart of the composition lies a wooden cart with large wheels casting cool blue shadows across a warm orange path. Behind it, simplified forms of houses – painted in muted orange, coral red, and powder blue – sit neatly among rounded green trees and trimmed hedgerows.

The artist has used a flattened perspective and geometric abstraction, reducing the scene to bold shapes and colour fields. The palette is both playful and restrained; the shadows and structures are stylised, offering just enough detail to ground the viewer in a familiar rural setting, while leaving space for interpretation.

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

Winter Lane
£480
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A evocative mid-century composition that captures a quiet winter street scene in a rustic village, where figures bundled in coats wander along a snow-laden path, executed in oil onto canvas.

Flanked by bare trees and modest cottages with pitched roofs, the composition evokes the stillness of a cold day softened by human presence—two women chatting along a fence, and solitary figures making their way through the slush-covered street.

Executed in a loose, impressionistic style, the painting features dynamic, swift brushstrokes that build up the texture of snow, branches, and garments with expressive confidence. The palette is dominated by restrained tones – icy whites, blues, muted greys – with subtle warm accents from ochres and reds found in rooftops and clothing details. The artist’s technique imparts a palpable sense of movement and chill, capturing both the beauty and quietude of a mid-century winter’s day. There are areas of heavy impasto, giving the piece a very painterly feel.

Whispers in the Wind
£410
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A calm and serene mid-century modernist style landscape, executed in oil onto board.

The composition captures a tranquil scene anchored by two windswept trees standing sentinel beside a rustic wooden gate. The simplified composition reflects a distinctly modernist sensibility, stripping the scene down to its essential forms and rhythm.

Rendered in a restrained yet expressive palette of dusky greens, blues and yellow, the painting suggests the stillness of early morning or the hush before a summer storm. The sky looms with weight, textured in wide, flat planes of grey-blue, lending atmosphere and depth to the horizon.

Broad, gestural brushstrokes give the foliage of the trees a tactile quality. The rough, visible texture of the oil paint adds a sense of movement and immediacy. Subtle tonal contrasts in the fields beyond evoke a patchwork of earth and pasture, conveying both the simplicity and vitality of the rural environment.

This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame with an inner linen border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and there is some paint loss present at the bottom of the gilded frame.

Abstract Plants
£320
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

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

The surface is thick with textured impasto, giving the work a tactile, almost sculptural presence. The composition is divided into vivid colour blocks—warm corals, sunny yellows, soft aquas, and hints of mint—intersected by expressive black and blue marks that suggest organic forms.

Lloyd’s use of thick paint application invites a physical response—you can almost feel the surface just by looking at it. This rich texture adds depth and dynamism, engaging the senses beyond the visual.

The loosely defined forms gives us viewers just enough to begin imagining plants and stems without being literal. Its small size encourages close, personal viewing. It feels like a private experience—something to be studied and absorbed in a quiet moment. A perfect example of how small artworks can carry a big impact.

This impasto painting is mounted a dark stained oak frame. 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.

Apple Reflection
£405
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A refined mid-century still life that captures a crisp moment of domestic simplicity with photorealistic precision, executed in oil onto canvas.

At the centre, a knife rests diagonally on a highly polished surface, its reflection rendered with meticulous attention. Flanking it are three apple segments – one halved, one whole, and one freshly cut – each painted with soft transitions of red, yellow, and green, evoking ripeness and freshness.

The artist employs a naturalistic style with subtle tonal gradations and a restrained palette. The composition is grounded in realism, but the clean backdrop and stark contrast between object and reflection give the work a modernist sharpness. The brushwork is smooth and controlled, with a finish so refined it nearly conceals the hand of the painter – typical of mid-century realism.

This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary wood frame . The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some paint peeling off on its inner section as shown in the photos.

Harvest Under the Canopy
£515
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A rich and striking striking mid-century modernist figurative landscape composition, painted in oil and gouache by the established Swedish female artist Brita Hansson (1918-1979).

A group of figures is gathered beneath a grove of robust, twisting trees – likely harvesters at rest or mid-task, surrounded by produce and market crates. The scene hums with life, captured in abstracted yet recognisable forms. Deep blues, earthy reds, browns, and forest greens dominate the palette, contrasted with striking patches of orange and golden yellow that suggest dappled sunlight filtering through foliage.

Painted in a bold, modernist style, the figures and environment are rendered with broad, expressive brushstrokes and geometric abstraction. The trees form powerful vertical rhythms while the figures, draped in rich fabrics, add weight and grounded intimacy to the scene. The brushwork is confident and gestural, emphasising mass and movement rather than realistic detail – imbuing the painting with a sense of warmth.

This oil and gouache on paper has been mounted onto board, and is housed in a complementary wood frame with an inner gilt window. There is a tiny bit of craquelure present in the middle tree but the paint layer is stable, and the painting is in good vintage condition overall.

Seated in Stillness
£445
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

An evocative modernist abstract painting that captures a contemplative figure rendered in bold, gestural strokes, painted in mixed media and dated 1973.

The subject is positioned frontally, seated against a patchwork of abstracted colour fields that imply an interior setting. A vivid orange dominates the figure’s body, outlined with raw yellow and offset by angular shadows in brown, crimson, and white. A striking cobalt blue cloth or object at the figure’s feet anchors the composition with a surprising burst of contrast.

Executed in a distinctly modernist style, the work fuses figurative expression with abstraction. The brushwork is confident and layered, with rough, visible strokes and a painterly energy that emphasises emotional form over anatomical precision. The background moves from a cool, washed green to blocks of saturated red and earthy brown, creating tension and spatial ambiguity.

Overall, the painting presents a powerful study in isolation, colour, and raw human presence.

This mixed media on card is presented within a white mount and a gilt frame, and is glazed (there is a layer of glass between the frame and the painting to ensure its longevity). The painting has some craquelure present, but its overall condition is stable as it is framed behind glass.

The Space Between
£640
Available

Free UK Shipping Only.

A 21st-century minimalist abstract painting that explores the interplay between negative space and geometric form with meditative clarity, executed in oil on canvas.

Dominated by a large, white shape that stretches vertically across the canvas, the composition is framed by two symmetrical bands of muted green on either side. These green sections are not sharply delineated but instead curve inward with organic fluidity, forming the edges of the central void.

Executed in a minimalist style, the work bears no visible brushstrokes, suggesting the use of masking techniques or flat application of paint to achieve a crisp, graphic finish. The simplicity of the colour palette – clean white and a subdued forest green – lends a serene, contemplative tone, inviting the viewer to reflect on the tension between form and emptiness, presence and absence. A subtle nod to mid-century minimalism, this piece balances structure and softness with elegant restraint.

This work appeals emotionally through its stillness and subtle rhythm, and intellectually through its form-driven abstraction—a reminder that art doesn’t need to explain itself to be deeply affecting.

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

Crimson Apples
£950
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

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

The painting captures a bold composition of four red apples nestled in a pale ceramic bowl, as it channels a sense of rustic intimacy through its simplified forms and earthy palette. Set against a loosely-rendered, wood-textured tabletop with blues and greens framing the background, the work evokes both structure and spontaneity.

Executed in a heavily impastoed style, the artist builds texture through deliberate, sculptural brushstrokes. The surface is rich with ridges of oil paint, applied thickly and expressively, lending dimensionality and movement to the otherwise still composition. Deep reds, moss greens, ochres, and navy blues dominate the palette, unified by the creamy whites of the bowl and accented by the textured backdrop.

This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame with an inner linen border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some marks at the bottom of its linen section.

Picnic Under the Pines
£495
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A mid-century figurative painting that captures a lively outdoor gathering beneath two abstracted pine trees, rendered in bold, expressive forms, and painted in oil onto board by the established Swedish female artist Brita Hansson (1918-1979).

At the center of the composition, a group of stylised figures sits together on what appears to be a picnic blanket, sharing a meal or conversation. Their forms are simplified yet evocative, outlined with fluid, gestural lines that emphasise connection and warmth.

Executed in a semi-abstract style, the painting merges figuration with vivid blocks of colour and dynamic compositional geometry. The palette features warm orange, deep forest greens, and rich reds, offset by cool blues and white negative space that lends the work a breezy openness. The brushwork is broad and textured, revealing the artist’s confident hand and intuitive layering of paint.

The overall effect is one of spontaneous joy and sunlit nostalgia—an ode to communal leisure in nature, filtered through the lens of modernist abstraction.

This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame. The painting is in execllent vintage condition, and the frame has very minor scuffs.

Fruit & Brushes
£445
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A painterly and expressive mid-century still life composition, executed in oil onto board.

This expressive composition offers a window into the artist’s studio through a rhythmic arrangement of objects – a terracotta vase, a lilac-toned pitcher, a cobalt dish of orange fruit, and a pair of blue tumblers holding delicate paintbrushes.

What sets this piece apart is the dynamic interplay of brushstroke and line. Thick, impasto layers are energetically applied, while the artist employs sgraffito – scratching into the wet paint with the back of a brush to reveal underlying tones and carve gestural lines into the surface. This technique adds both texture and movement, amplifying the painting’s sense of immediacy and spontaneity.

The palette is a sophisticated interplay of soft mauves, deep greens, and muted blues, set against a textured backdrop that shifts from diagonal to vertical strokes – echoing the tension between structure and freedom.

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

Interior with Green Stove
£440
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A serene mid-century interior scene that captures a quiet moment in a Scandinavian home, painted in oil onto canvas and dated 1944.

The composition is anchored by a pale green tiled masonry stove – a traditional element of Nordic domestic architecture. A blue pitcher perched atop the stove adds a pop of contrast, while a single wooden chair with a blue upholstered seat invites the viewer into the space.

The composition leads the eye across a striped woven rug into an adjacent sunlit room, creating a gentle sense of depth and domestic continuity.

Moonrise with Yellow Cup
£985
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A quiet and introspective mid-century modernist figurative painting, executed in oil onto canvas by the established Swedish artist Fabian Lundqvist (1913-1989), whose works have been represented in many public collections in Sweden.

A solitary figure stands silhouetted against a dusky ochre sky, bathed in the stillness of twilight. A full, pale moon hangs suspended in the background, casting a quiet presence over a geometric urban landscape rendered in rich, earthen browns and shadowy forms.

The central figure, wears a softly patterned yellow garment that glows against the muted backdrop. Her jet-black hair is stark and angular, echoing the blocky architecture behind her. A small yellow cup, almost symbolic, rests at the bottom edge – a tender detail that anchors the composition with quiet intimacy.

Executed in a restrained palette of warm browns, creams, ochres, and charcoal, the painting features smooth, matte brushwork and soft, flat colour fields, characteristic of post-war European modernism. The artist’s style is contemplative and distilled, evoking introspection and a serene, poetic stillness.

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

Market Day in the Square
£450
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A charming mid-century Naïve style street scene that captures the rhythm and warmth of a local European town square on market day, executed in oil onto board and dated 1957.

The composition presents a bustling yet orderly gathering of figures amid open stalls and sunlit awnings, set against the backdrop of a grand building with a steep red roof and tall chimney that anchors the composition.

Executed in a naïve, folk-modernist style, the figures are rendered with simplified forms and minimal detail. The artist has used flat, blocky colour planes with earthy ochres, deep forest greens, navy blues, and brick reds, punctuated by soft greys and muted yellows in the cobbled square and overcast sky.

Brushstrokes are direct and purposeful, with little blending. A defining feature of this work is the use of deep blue outlines – used not only to demarcate figures, umbrellas, and building edges, but also to bring coherence and rhythm to the composition. These cobalt contours give the scene an illustrative quality, emphasising form over detail.

Overall, this work balances architectural geometry with the spontaneity of human life and community.

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

Size: 50.5 x 58.5 cm (including frame)
