  • Bridge Crossing

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A small but very charming modernist expressionist oil, painted in 1937.

    In this picture we see a figure crossing a stone bridge that leads towards a cottage, surrounded by lush greenery. This painting is both reminiscent of the post-impressionist style of artists like Van Gogh, as well as of Fauvist painters like  André Derain. It features bold, undisguised brushstrokes in vibrant colours, and is very much a subjective, emotional response to the landscape (as opposed to just painting the landscape as realistically as possible).

    This vibrant oil composition is housed in a dark wood and gilt frame that suits its homely look. Both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.

  • Winter Rooftops

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A small but stunning mid century modernist landscape composition in oil, painted in 1959.

    This excellently proportioned composition features the snow covered rooftops of a group of houses, painted in a soothing and subtle colour palette. The artist guides us into appreciating the formal qualities of this scene, such as the angular lines and shapes of the roofs, doors and windows, the geometry of the houses stacked up against each other and the repeated patterns created by colour, shape and line. Contrasted against the very angular structures of the buildings are the more free flowing trees, whose branches peek out above the rooftops. The red and ochre walls of the houses and the blue of the sky stand out beautifully against the large planes of white snow.

    This painting is housed in a very well suited gilt frame with a lighter inner window. Both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.

In the distance we see a wooded landscape lining the horizon, with just the tops of the mountains peaking out from behind. The rising sun casts its pinkish – purple hue over the landscape, giving this picture its warm glow.

  • Country in Colour

    Sold

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A small but very striking mid century semi-abstract composition in oil.

    Reminiscent of the 20th century modernist style of ‘fauvism’, this painting features the classic fauve feature of separating colour from its descriptive, representational purpose and allowing it to exist on the canvas as an independent element. In this picture, the colour establishes a structure within the work without being true to the natural world. Its brushstrokes also carry the fauve style of being short and separated, creating a sense of movement within the picture.

    Vivid, expressive colours and spontaneous brushwork contained within a small composition create a piece that would stand out in any interior. It would work as a single piece in a small space that needed a lift, but would also work well as part of a group hang.

    The painting is housed in an off white painted wood frame that enhances its vintage character. Both painting and frame are in good vintage condition.

  • Snow Day

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A wonderful little narrative painting depicting a group of people having fun in the snow.

A group of 3 figures building what appears to be a snowman form the centre of the composition. Framing them are houses to the eft and right, and several other figures and trees.

  • Abstract Landscape

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A striking miniature landscape oil painting, executed in an abstract manner, painted in 1987.

    Upon first glance we notice the broad, expressive and textured brushstrokes filling up the canvas of this lively composition.

    As our eyes rest on the composition, we begin to take in the way in which artist has skilfully managed to abstract what appears to be a pleasant landscape (blue and purple skies in the background, lush greenery in the foreground) through the use of contrasting colours.

    This oil on canvas housed in a white box frame would make a lovely statement piece that would suit a shelf or a gallery hang perfectly. Both artwork and frame are in excellent vintage condition. The pins that have been used to fix the canvas onto the frame are visible around the outside edges of the frame, as shown in photos.

  • Misty Fields

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A uniquely framed oil depicting a trees by a lake. The frame truly brings the small landscape to life, with its inner beading drawing our eyes in toward the centre, where we notice small and fine brushstrokes in calming tones of green, white, grey and blue. The deep profile of the frame adds a ‘window’ like effect, and its silvery mottled edges outline the overall picture wonderfully.

    The oil painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some minor paint loss and scuffs to the edges, most of which has been restored.

    Painting size: 11 x 14.5 cm

    Overall size: 23.5 x 27 cm (including frame)

    Note: The photos used are not meant to be an accurate size representation of the artwork. Please check dimensions before purchasing.

    Miniature paintings are often overlooked treasures. Their small size means they can fit into an array of small spaces, adding interest to nooks and crannies. They can be displayed on a bookshelf or kitchen shelf, either standing on a mini easel or leant against other objects/books. If added to a group display, these small pieces act as a wonderful contrast to bigger pieces, and can add ‘punctuation’ to the group hang.

  • Scarlet Trees

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A row of bold scarlet red trees take centre stage – their fiery foliage attempt to obscure the landscape, but through their trunks we are given a glimpse of what is beyond. Colourful cottages dot the landscape, backed by green rich hills.

    This painting may not be large in size, but it certainly does not lack intensity and punch.

    The grey-green frame with hints of gold outlines the painting wonderfully – its evenly spaced divots draw our eyes in towards the picture.

  • Suffuse

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A soothing miniature abstract painting executed in oil, painted in 1964. This artist has used elements of abstraction to depict what appears to be a cityscape of buildings, with hints of greenery in the foreground, although this is a subjective interpretation.

    Although the contrasting colour blocks of muted pastel tones of sand, grey, taupe imbue the with a sense of calm, the artist’s use of swift and energetic brushstrokes invigorate this work with subtle liveliness. 

    This oil on canvas is in excellent vintage condition. It is housed in a gilt frame that has hints of red.

  • Through the Terrain

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A soft and lovely work of art rendered in oil, dated 1954.

    A group of men are depicted carrying bags of sand on their head, as they transport the goods from one end of a terrain to the next.

    The artist has executed the work with gentle brushstrokes; and the selection of the neutral earthy colour palette consisting of green, purple blue and clay imbues the work with a subdued feel of lightness.

    The painting is in good condition overall. There are tiny pin holes and losses to the edges on both sides of the painting (as depicted in the images), but in our opinion this does not detract from the work.

    It is housed in a very complementary grainy wood frame that is in excellent vintage condition.

  • A Quiet Village

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A delightful and very textured street scene painted in oil, depicting a group of houses in a village. The colour palette used parallels the natural world, with a mix of neutral tones such as white, earthy orange, and variegated greens. It is a highly textured work, with several areas of distinct impasto (where the paint has been applied thickly such that it stands proud from the surface) creating a three dimensional effect.

    The painting is currently unframed, and is painted onto sturdy board. It could be displayed in its current state on an easel or leant against a shelf. It is in very good vintage condition. There is some surface paint loss to the outermost edges but this does not detract from the main image.

  • Exhale

    Sold

    SOLD

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    This zen winter landscape rendered in a muted palette in oil is both simple and striking.  A snow covered field stretches into the distance, its horizon lined by a row of hazy trees. Mounds of seemingly barren land peak through the thin layer of snow. But barren it is not, merely taking its chance to rest through winter before the busier season of crops begin again. Its ploughed lines extend forward into the distance – here is the earth taking a long, much needed exhalation. A reminder that we all need to take a moment or two to rest, relax and breathe from time to time.

    The painting is housed in a very complementary silver wood frame with hits of red showing through.  Both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.
