  • Panorama

    Sold

    Free UK, Europe and Singapore shipping.

    A panoramic mid century modernist landscape composition in oil, painted onto canvas.

    This restful composition depicts a far reaching landscape sitting under blue skies. The artist has used long and expressive brushstrokes that have been gently but confidently applied, capturing the airy and diaphanous quality of the meadow before him. This simple yet very effective composition would make a perfect resting spot for our eyes, and would suit a bedroom or living room area very well.

    The painting is housed in wide profile frame with a linen-lined border and an inner silver window. The painting has some surface marks but nothing that detracts from its overall attractiveness.  The frame has some minor scuffs.

    Size: 44 x 75 cm (including frame)

  • Quiet Evening

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A skilfully executed scenic road landscape composition, executed in oil in 1962.

    There is a charming contrast between the top and bottom half of the painting. In the background – we see lush forestry in the distance set against moody and darker tones.  On the other hand, the foreground of the painting has an array of colourful earthy shades and has more lively atmosphere.

    The artist has reduced and flattened down the road and surrounding landscape into blocks of contrasting colours to create a wonderful sense of depth and width to the painting.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary dark wood frame with an inner linen lining. Both frame and painting are in very good vintage condition.

    Size: 39.5 x 89 cm (including frame)

  • South of France

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A very pleasant and gentle mid century modernist abstract landscape composition of the South of France, executed in oil onto canvas, painted in 1952.

    This abstract landscape composition has been simplified down to coloured shapes in light and soft pastel colours including shades of oranges and greens. As we spend time to study the colours and play on geometric shapes, we can discern what appears to be trees and houses situated on a hilly landscape.

    The short and soft brushstrokes pair excellently with the subdued and dreamy colours, enriching the painting with a harmonious and gentle feel.

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

  • Still Life with Jugs

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A small yet very striking mid century modernist still life composition, painted in oil onto board.

    In this well-executed and detailed work of art, there is a strong focus on colours, shapes and form.

    Using a muted earthy colour palette, the artist has thoughtfully used contrasting blocks of colours to illustrate two jugs set against a similarly-coloured background. The differing shades help to create a sense of space as well as make the three-dimensionality of the objects more pronounced.

    Fine and smooth brushstrokes have been used, and in addition to the stunning colours, there is a sense of warmth and gentleness instilled in the painting.

    This oil on board is housed in a  mid century wood frame with an inner linen lining. There are some marks and minor paint loss at the top of the painting (as it might have been reframed), however the work is in very good vintage condition overall. There are some very minor age spots to the frame.

  • The Farmer’s House

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A brilliantly executed mid century cubist composition of an interior scene, painted in oil onto canvas in 1956.

    In this painting, the artist has played with angles, shapes, patterns and colours. The space has been flattened, and perspective skewed. As a result, we have a very unique and intriguing composition before us, that allows us to look at the everyday objects within it in a very different way and notice things that would otherwise go unnoticed. This fragmented and abstracted image of an interior emphasis the two-dimensional flatness of the canvas instead of creating the illusion of depth.

    The painting is housed in a wood frame that complements it well. Both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.

  • Blue Vase & Fruits

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A soothing and elegant mid 20th century still life executed in oil, where a group of fruits including an apple, orange, 3 pears as well as a blue vase are depicted atop a green surface.

    A rich and lively palette including blues and greens have been used to paint the objects, as they sit against a beautiful peach backdrop filled with multiple undertones. The artist displays his painterly skills by using different hues of each shade and blending them well together to achieve a sense of three-dimensionality for each object.

    The painting has been well-executed in an expressionist manner –  with dynamic and detailed brushstrokes lending the artwork an impressive visual and vibrant appeal.

    This oil on board is in very good vintage condition. It is housed in a well-suited light wood frame, and there is a very small area of surface paint loss to the the right edge of the frame, but this does not detract from its overall attractiveness and is in lined to its vintage feel.

    Size: 48 x 56 cm (including frame)

  • Inlet

    Sold

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A charming mid century modernist coastal scene, painted in oil onto board.

    Using a soft colour palette in pastel tones, the artist has applied broad, textured, expressive brushstrokes to compose this restful landscape. The way he has portrayed the natural light and its effects on the scene is beautiful, incorporating a myriad of soft, mellow tones with punches of richer, more vivid colours.

    The painting is housed in its original mid century multi accented frame that suits it very well. Both frame and painting are in very good vintage condition.

  • Iris

    Sold

    SOLD.

    An absolutely lovely mid century floral composition in oil, painted onto canvas.

    There is an element of intrigue when it comes to decoding this picture. Just entering the left side of the composition is the edge of the back of an artist’s stretched canvas, with the long stem of the iris flower in the middle, and then to the right we have what looks like a wooden beam at an angle. Is the canvas leaning against the wall? And the beam perhaps the edge of a window? Or is the artist actually facing a mirror, painting the reflection of what he sees, including the back of his canvas?

    The blue that the artist has used is deep and rich. It draws you in and goes perfectly with the wood and gilt frame. The artist has painted the iris flower delicately and intricately, capturing its sumptuous colours and its tall, stout stem.

    The painting is housed in a very well suited dark wood frame with an inner gilt window. The painting has a very small area of paint loss to the bottom left section (as seen in close up photo). The frame has some scuffs to its lower edge. Overall the painting and frame is in good vintage condition.

  • French Town

    Sold

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A wonderfully painted mid century oil painting of a French townscape, executed in oil.

    Depicting a quiet town situated in the hills, the work has been executed in a semi-abstract manner through the use of visible and painterly multi-directional brushstrokes.

    There is a haunting beauty and a sense of melancholy in this painting –  mainly brought forth from the black tones that contrast strongly against the bold earthy shades.

    This oil on canvas is in excellent vintage condition. It is housed in a wood frame with a linen lining that has seen a loss to the bottom left corner (as shown  clearly in the photos).

    Sold

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A stunning mid century modernist landscape composition, painted in oil onto board.

    The painting is housed in a gilt frame with an inner linen lined border. The painting has small specks of surface paint loss to the top left, which can be seen in the close up photo. These losses are only noticeable upon very close inspection, and do not detract from the overall attractiveness of the piece. The paint surface is very stable overall.

  • On the Metro

    Sold

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A large and playful mid century  British modernist oil composition of several figures on the metro in Paris, painted onto artist’s board.

    The colourful composition has a fun, childlike quality to it that makes it  a joy to look at. Although seemingly simple and ‘naive’ at first glace, it is in fact a very well executed painting. The composition and use of colours is perfectly balanced, and very satisfying to look at. Despite the lack of realistic details or colouring, we very quickly understand what we’re looking at. The artist has captured an everyday scene of rush hour on the Metro, but has incorporated a wonderful expressionist style to the piece.

    The painting is housed in a gilt frame with an inner linen lined border. The painting is in very good vintage condition. The frame has some minor scuffing to its edges.

  • Sandy Bay

    Sold

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very restful mid century modernist oil coastalscape composition, painted onto canvas.

    A soft palette is combined with punches of darker more vivid colour, applied in broad, expressive brushstrokes that capture the atmosphere of the coastal scape perfectly. There is a lovely sense of movement and light – we can imagine the sound of the wind blowing through the light grass and sand, and soft sound of the waves hitting the shore of the bay. This painting would make such a lovely peaceful spot to rest one’s tired eyes on.

    The picture is housed in a linen lined frame with an inner gilt window that illuminates the painting beautifully. The painting is in very good vintage condition. There is some minor scuffing and age toning to frame, commensurate with age.

  • Walking By

    Sold

    Free UK Shipping Only.

    A large and brilliantly executed modernist style figurative painting, executed in oil onto canvas.

    Set against a soothing lighter coloured background, the composition of the painting is punctuated by a group of tall figures in bold and striking colours walking by.

    Painted in an abstract manner, the figures have been simplified and abstracted down to geometric shapes, painterly brushstrokes, and rich colours.

    Expressive gestural brushstrokes fill the canvas, and the artist displays and an excellent use of colour. Although working with a limited palette including reds, yellow and orange, he has skilfully applied and layered lighter and darker hues of each colour to create a harmonious, lively and well-balanced painting.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary gilt frame. There are some minor scattered areas of craquelure across the painting commensurate with its age, but the paint layer is in stable condition overall.

    A beautifully vivid and striking oil composition of a lady at a market stall selling flowers, painted onto board.

  • The Group

    Sold

    Free UK Shipping Only.

    A large and very striking mid century modernist semi-abstract composition, painted in oil onto board.

    Here we see a group of figures gathered together, seemingly in conversation. The artist has left out all realistic details, abstracting the figures down into a series of coloured shapes and patters, all set against a background of vivid yellow.

    This large painting would certainly make a statement piece in any interior.

  • Nightfall

    Sold

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A moody and atmospheric mid century modernist landscape, painted in oil onto canvas.

    Upon first glance, our eyes are drawn to the darker and moody shades on the bottom half of the painting, and it then moves to the lighter muted shades on the top. As we take time to study its form, we can just about discern a house peeking out above a hilly landscape, as nightfall sets.

    Expressive, painterly and unrestrained brushstrokes fill the canvas, and the artist has added a wonderful textural element to focus our attention on the dramatic composition.

    The painting is housed in its original mid century frame with several contrasting windows, efficiently drawing our attention inward towards the painting. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Quirk

    Sold

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A quirky mid century modernist still life oil composition, painted onto board in 1964.

    This still life features odd angles and skewed perspective, asking us to look and look again. The composition carries many little playful details that are fun to explore and discover. Everything about its layout is somewhat stilted and skewed, for example the table sits at an angle where technically everything should slide off it, and the table is not quite rectangular. The shadows of the objects don’t quite fit either. The floor boards that sit below the table are in a different colour at every section, representing the way the light hits the floor differently. The top edge of the window sits at an angle that is not in line with the curtain rod above. Very interestingly, out the window we see a wall that has a arched shape exit where we can see the view of the seascape beyond. There are more details to discover, but all in all this surreal still life carries so many interesting features that are a delight.

    The painting is housed in a gilt frame with a winner linen lined  border.  Both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.

  • Siesta

    Sold

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A large and powerful mid century modernist oil composition, painted on board.

    This painting is very striking – large flat planes of colour fit together to create this composition of two seated figures on a coastline, with boats and buildings in the distance. The artist has left out all realistic details, focusing instead on the formal qualities such as shape, form and colour.  The shapes are all very much rounded, creating a general softness to the piece that makes it very appealing to look at it.

    The painting is housed in a wood frame that suits it well. Both painting and frame are in good vintage condition.

  • The Open Door

    Sold

    Free UK Shipping Only.

    A very large and very well executed mid century modernist interior composition, painted in oil onto canvas.

    Flat planes of colour in a myriad of angles create this very distinctly modernist interior. The traditional method of using perspective to create depth has been intentionally ignored, with the artist focusing instead on using complementary colours and geometric shapes to create a sense of space. The artist has very interestingly concentrated these formal qualities on the surfaces of the interior and its background, but has painted the objects portrayed within the interior in a much more detailed manner. The vase of flowers on the table with the bottles as well a the chair carry a different and more detailed style, which contrasts very well with the more angular shapes of the floor, walls and the view that continues outside.

    The painting is housed in a gilt frame and with an inner linen lined border. The painting has some small areas of paint loss, as shown in close ups, but these do not detract from the overall attractiveness of the piece. The frame has some losses to its edges, as shown.

  • Delight

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A rich and vibrant landscape composition, executed in oil onto board, and painted in 1957.

    This nature landscape composition depicts a lush meadow sitting amidst a forest in the foreground, with a cliff in the background and mountains in the horizon.

    Executed in a fauvist style, the artist has flattened the forms and has enhanced the colours of the natural world by using a plethora of vivid and saturated colours that harmonise wonderfully together. Distinct energetic and intuitive brushstrokes also fill the canvas, adding a light textural quality and imbuing the work with a sense of dynamism.

    This painting is housed in a complementary deep profile wood frame with visible grain. Both frame and painting are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Dusk

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A large and very atmospheric mid century modernist landscape in oil, painted onto canvas.

    This moody, expressionist painting features an array of textured detailing, showing off the artist’s mastery of the medium.  Notwithstanding the dark and deep colour palette, the artist has skilfully created several layers of blended colour that give the painting an illumination from within that was hard to capture in the photos and is much more pertinent in real life. There is a glow from the painting that suggests that the scene is of sunset, just before the landscape loses its light completely. We love the little details such as the textured dots of pink applied to the lower half of the composition, alluding to little flowers in the grassy meadow.

    This brilliant painting is housed in a gilt frame with green highlights around its outer edges. There are several inner windows, both linen lined and gilt. The painting and frame are both in very good condition. The linen section has some minor age toning, commensurate with age.

    A striking mid century black & white modernist portrait painting, executed in oil onto canvas.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary wood frame with an inner lining. There are some areas of scuff as well as ageing spots on the frame, commensurate with its age.

  • Halcyon Landscape

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A tranquil and atmospheric mid-century landscape composition, painted in oil in an expressionist manner.

    Dedicate light pastel shades of green, yellow, blue and grey have been used, imbuing the work with softness and calm.

    The artist displays his painterly skills – using expressive and sweeping brushstrokes to add a wonderful textural feel, as well as layering contrasting shades to demonstrate a sense of depth and expansiveness to the painting.

    The subtle colour palette of this painting would make it a good fit in many interior settings.

    This oil on is in excellent vintage condition. It is housed in a thin white wooden frame. There are bits of wear to the corners of the frame, however this does not detract from its overall attractiveness.

  • Horses on the Meadow

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A beautifully executed mid century composition in oil, painted in 1949.

    In this picture, we see a a group of animals including a horse grazing on the meadow. Long, gestural brushstrokes fill the canvas with thick paint, creating a wonderfully textured effect.  The artists skilful and expressive brushwork blends the paint beautifully to create the three dimensional forms of the animals. It is clear that the artist has incorporated more than just the visual scene before him – we get a sense of the way the light hits the meadow, the slight wind in the air, the movement of the sky above and the blades of the grass below.

    This excellent painting is housed in a solid wood frame which adds to its ‘country’ appeal. Both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.
