A dynamic and beautifully textured mid-century painting of an atmospheric seascape, executed in oil onto canvas.
Small yet impactful in its composition, the canvas is dominated by a vast expanse of waves in an ocean under a grey sky. The overall colour palette is subdued, featuring shades of white and various hues of grey, lavender purple and green that have a soothing quality.
Containing elements of impressionism and abstraction, the artist has swiftly applied loose and expressive brushstrokes to capture the swirling, frothy waves during this fleeting atmospheric condition. Each stroke seems to ripple and dance across the canvas, creating a sense of movement within the water.
Using the impasto technique, the thick and creamy texture of the brushwork gives the waves a tactile as well as aesthetically captivating presence.
This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary slim silver frame. Both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.
Size: 29.5 x 33 cm (including frame)

A small and enigmatic mid-century composition, executed in oil onto board.
2 figures aboard a boat punctuate the foreground of the painting. The direction of the light obscures their details, creating silhouettes of their figures.
Behind them we see another sailing boat, as well as a big ship passing. The artist has focused on the forms of the composition, playfully using a varied series of shapes and the contrast of light and dark to create depth and a sense of space.
Lovely swirling brushstrokes capture the effect of the moving water, as well as the reflection of the water on the hull of the ship. A wonderful range of light pastel colours in soft hues of pale blue and delicate pink and yellow contrast against the dark silhouettes of the figures.
This oil on board is housed in a dark gilt frame. The painting is in very good vintage condition. There is some scuffing present to the frame corners, in keeping with its age.
Size: 25.5 x 36 cm (including frame)

A small yet very striking modernist composition, executed in oil onto canvas.
The painting depicts a bustling harbour scene, where a row of boats are docked by the edge of the water. In the foreground, 2 well-dressed figures are walking along a promenade, and a row of buildings line the background of the painting.
The artist has highlighted the silhouettes of the boats, buildings, and figures with a thin black outline, further emphasising their respective forms.
The painting is characterised by a rich and vibrant colour palette comprising shades of blue, orange, red, and white, as well as expressive and lightly textured brushstrokes that reflect the bustling energy of the scene.
This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary gilt frame with linen border. The frame has some very minor scuffing in keeping with age. The painting is in excellent vintage condition.
Size: 38 x 33 cm (including frame)

A very well executed mid century semi abstract composition in oil, painted onto canvas.
Here we see a boat docked in front of a building, but the artist has chosen to focus on formal qualities such as form, shape, line and colour. Working under a distinctly modernist ethos, the artist has very cleverly reduced the scene down to flat planes of colour, creating a cubist, geometric effect in the composition, bringing our attention to the fact that this is indeed a painting on a surface, shaped by the artist’s own view and perception, as opposed to a realistic depiction of a boat by a shed. Yet details like the stillness of the water, the reflection of the boat, and the structures involved are still so masterfully captured.
This oil painting is housed in a very well suited gilt frame. Both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.
Size: 33 x 40 cm (including frame)

An expressive mid century modernist seascape scene, painted in oil onto board.
Executed in rich colours and confident brushstrokes, this painting depicts two figures standing by a row of fishing huts. Probably fishermen, the figures look out at the sea, possibly determining its conditions. With areas of thick impasto creating texture and three dimensionality, we get a real sense of the movement of the choppy waters.
The painting is housed in a very well suited silver frame with an inner white window. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

A calm and tranquil coastal scape composition, painted in oil onto board.
In this miniature painting, two sailboats with long masts are depicted at sea and near a coastline.
This work of art contains hints of abstract qualities as all realistic details have been omitted, and the artist has captured the seamless transition of the sky, sea and coast so beautifully. Gentle sweeping brushstrokes imbue the work with a soothing feel and the soft colours of blue, brown and grey interact with one another very harmoniously.
This painting is housed in a complementary gilt frame. The painting is in very good vintage condition. The frame has scuffs commensurate with its age, and there is also a loss to the top left corner which isn’t visible from the front.
Size: 25 x 30 cm (including frame)

A small, mid century oil on board, painted in 1957.
A seemingly simple yet very effective composition of a boat, painted in a semi abstract manner. The artist has applied bold, broad and textured brushstrokes on the board, in deep, rich, vivid colours. Through the use of colour, the artist suggests to the viewer that this is a scene at sunset. The horizontal brushstrokes in the background start off in a palette of blues, suggesting the sea, and then as we move upwards, the artist has incorporated reds, pinks, yellows, and orange tones to capture the sunset sky.
The painting is housed in a wide profile wood frame with visible grain. Both painting and frame are in good vintage condition.

A small yet striking mid century oil on board depicting a row of figures and two boats by the shore. This simple yet intriguing composition has been beautifully executed in an expressive manner. The artist has used distinct brush strokes with areas of impasto (where the paint is applied thickly such that it stands proud from the surface) to create this well balanced composition in oil. He has focused on shape, form and line rather than realistic details of the scene. There is a calming, almost innocent like effect to this painting which makes it a pleasure to look art.
The painting is housed in its original mid century wood frame with an inner fabric lined border, which suits it very well. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The edges of the frame have a few minor scuffs, but this is typical for a frame of this age.

A stunning miniature seascape with lots of details to appreciate. Within this tiny picture we have 6 boats amidst calm waters, including a very finely detailed three-masted sailing vessel with soldiers on board. The artist has taken great care to include many different elements, from birds, to different types of vessels, to subtle changes between sea and sky.
The painting is housed within an ornately moulded, wide profile gilt frame.
Painting Size: 18.5 x 24cm
Overall Size: 30.5 x 35.5 cm (including frame)

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.

A absolutely stunning oil painting of birds in flight across a coastal landscape. The artist has managed to capture the crispness of an early winter morning, with a purple hue enveloping the landscape. The glowing rays of the sun have begun to warm up the sky, its rays reflecting off the water’s surface. The addition of the pair of birds mid-flight completes the composition of this oil perfectly.
The oil painting by Egon Lennart Karlsson is housed in a gilt frame and is in excellent vintage condition.
