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.

Size: 73 x 86 cm (including frame)

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.

Impression of a Town
£475
Available

Free UK Shipping Only.

An expressive and dynamic mid-century modernist painting that captures a vibrant urban townscape street scene, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1970.

The scene unfolds from an elevated perspective, looking down a narrow street flanked by terracotta rooftops, brown and sand coloured façades, and other architectural forms. A cluster of rooftops and chimneys gives way to a distant dome, while a tall crane looms subtly in the background.

Painted with vigorous, assured brushstrokes, the work blends figuration with abstraction, favouring impression over precision. The artist employs a warm, earthy palette – orange, mustard, slate, and burgundy – offset by cooler greys and whites that evoke a moody, overcast sky. Areas of thick, dry brushwork and layered paint convey the texture of old walls and cobbled ground, while vertical lines and angular forms lead the eye deep into the composition.

Lively yet grounded, this piece wonderfully captures the atmosphere and rhythm of everyday life in a city as it quietly unfolds.

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

Purple Blooms
£475
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A refined mid-century interior still life painting that captures a bouquet of vivid purple flowers arranged in a clear glass vase, resting on a neatly folded napkin atop a coral-toned table, and executed in oil onto canvas.

The blooms radiate warmth and structure with their concentric circles and velvety textures. To the left, a cluster of green figs provides visual weight and organic contrast to the floral arrangement.

The composition is anchored by balanced geometry – a vertical vase, crisp edges of the napkin, and the gentle horizontal plane of the table – all of which play harmoniously against the soft verticals of the window and muted wall. The style is characteristic of mid-century modernist still life, embracing quiet elegance and considered simplicity.

The palette is restrained yet warm: dusty greens, deep purples, soft browns, and earthy coral tones. Brushwork is controlled yet expressive – blended in the background but more textured and sculptural in the rendering of the petals and fruit, offering depth and intimacy to this serene domestic scene.

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

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
Available

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.

The Overlook
£440
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A mid-century painting that captures a group of sightseers gathered at a scenic overlook, gazing out toward a hazy mountain range framed by coniferous trees, executed in oil onto board and dated 1946.

The figures are rendered with a sense of casual observation, some engaged in quiet conversation, others lost in the vast landscape beyond. Their poses suggest a shared yet silent moment of awe.

Painted in a modernist-naïve style, the artist has simplified human forms and natural elements into broad, expressive shapes. The composition is structured yet loose, with the figures arranged rhythmically along a wooden railing that guides the viewer’s eye toward the distant peaks.

The colour palette is soft and muted, dominated by pastel blues, pine greens, earthy browns, and warm flesh tones, evoking a misty afternoon in the mountains. The brushwork is brisk and visible – short, textured strokes give vitality to trees and garments alike, while the background mountains are softly blended to suggest atmospheric perspective.

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

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.

Desert Geometry
£485
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A striking 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.

The painting presents a stylised desert architectural scene, rendered with crisp, geometric clarity. A row of low-slung buildings is depicted against a pale, arid sky, their forms distilled into minimalist blocks of colour and shape. Dominating the composition is a tall, rust-toned cylindrical structure – likely a water tower – flanked by low beige and ochre buildings with charcoal roofs. Two cactus-like forms punctuate the left of the frame, introducing a playful yet sparse nod to the desert landscape.

The palette is subdued and sandy: soft ochres, warm beige, muted browns, slate grey, and a whisper of terracotta. The artist has used broad, confident brushstrokes and thickly applied paint, lending texture and tonal variation to the otherwise flat expanses.

The work has a meditative stillness, with the flattened perspective and architectural rhythm evoking a quiet, sun-drenched afternoon in an empty town.

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

Tidal Rhythm
£415
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

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

This composition captures a sunlit shoreline, where land, sea, and sky converge in rhythmic harmony. Rolling waves meet sandy inlets and grassy banks, leading the viewer’s eye toward a distant tree-lined horizon under a softly clouded sky.

Executed in bold, confident brushstrokes, the work embraces an expressive, almost abstracted interpretation of nature. The artist has used impasto techniques with energetic brush movements that create a palpable texture across the canvas. Rich greens, browns, and sandy beiges define the coastal terrain, while varying shades of blue and lavender bring dynamism to the sea. Accents of crimson and cobalt heighten the visual tempo, offering flickers of contrast within the organic flow.

Evocative of Nordic coastal scenes and post-impressionist influence, this painting exemplifies the mid-century modern ethos: emotional immediacy through painterly gesture, simplified forms, and a harmonious interplay of colour.

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

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.

Stillness in Blue Light
£430
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A striking and uniquely textured mid-century interior still life that captures a moment of quiet elegance within an abstracted domestic setting, executed in oil and ink onto board.

At the heart of the composition is a white table rendered with gestural precision, holding a dark bowl of yellow fruit and a tall blue vase with two red flowers. The background unfolds in a layered wash of shadowy arches, pale teal walls, and textured architectural forms—suggesting a moody, introspective room awash with diffused natural light.

The artist has used a distinctive impasto technique, building up the surface with thick, expressive brushstrokes that carve out depth and texture, particularly in the arched doorway and floor reflections. A palette of deep ultramarines, smoky greys, siennas, and muted aquas sets an evocative, almost theatrical atmosphere. Linear incisions and palette knife work add to the painting’s sculptural quality, giving a sense of movement and tactile richness.

A quietly compelling composition that balances structure with emotion, light with shadow.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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. Executed in a naturalistic yet subtly stylised manner, the painting reflects the mid-20th-century Scandinavian aesthetic of simplicity, functionality, and calm.

The palette is soft and harmonious, dominated by muted greens, warm browns, powdery blues, and hints of red in the rug. Brushstrokes are smooth and controlled, lending a quiet clarity to the scene, while the treatment of light – softly diffused through the unseen window – imbues the work with a tranquil, timeless atmosphere.

This piece is both a nostalgic record of interior life and a meditative study of colour, form, and balance.

Painted in an expressive, semi-abstract style, the composition features loosely defined cottages scattered across the hillsides, their rooftops rendered in pastel tones of rose, lilac, mint, and cornflower blue. The artist has used a restrained, earthy palette dominated by yellows, greys, and soft creams, punctuated by these subtle touches of colour that lend the work a nostalgic yet dreamlike quality.

The brushwork is gestural and textured, with generous impasto lending physical depth and spontaneity to the canvas. Strokes appear almost sculpted in places, conveying a tactile sense of the landscape’s contours.

Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A brilliantly executed contemporary landscape composition, painted onto canvas by British artist Nicky Knill Jones.

The painting presents a sweeping view of the rugged Cornish coastline near Zennor, interpreted through a loose, expressive style. The artist uses a subdued, cool palette of soft greys, whites, muted greens, and hints of blue to evoke the windswept drama of this natural landscape.

Foreground brushstrokes suggest rocky outcrops and coastal vegetation, leading the eye toward a winding shoreline or inlet that curves through the midground. The hills and cliffs in the distance are rendered in hazy, blended tones that capture the atmospheric light and shifting weather typical of Cornwall. The sky, expansive and heavy with cloud, adds a moody, contemplative tone to the scene.

Quiet Expanse
£570

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A very atmospheric contemporary abstract composition, painted onto canvas by British artist Nicky Knill Jones.

The painting captures the serene, meditative quality of a wide, open coastal scene. Soft brushstrokes and a muted palette of pale blues, greys, and sandy beiges evoke the stillness of a tidal flat or beach at low tide, where sea and sky blend almost imperceptibly on the horizon.

The composition is horizontal and spacious, with distant, darkened headlands framing the scene and guiding the viewer’s eye gently toward the center. The foreground is rendered in translucent layers, suggesting wet sand and shallow pools reflecting the soft light above. There is a sense of vastness and calm, where time seems suspended.

Overall, the painting conveys peaceful solitude and the quiet grandeur of nature, using minimal detail and harmonious tones to evoke a deeply contemplative atmosphere.

This painting is beautifully presented in a white tray frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

In the Moment
£550
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A very well executed contemporary coastal composition, painted onto canvas by British artist Nicky Knill Jones.

This painting portrays a vast, windswept beach under a dramatic, cloud-streaked sky. The horizon is low and dark, with rolling hills framing the edge of the sea, while the expansive sky dominates the upper half of the canvas in shifting tones of blue and grey.

Scattered across the wet sand are small, loosely rendered figures, their reflections faintly mirrored on the glistening surface. The central figure draws the viewer’s eye and lends a quiet narrative to the scene. The broad, gentle brushstrokes and subdued palette evoke a fleeting, introspective mood — capturing the stillness and solitude of a moment suspended in time.

The painting conveys the feeling of being immersed in nature’s vastness, where human presence is small but meaningful, and the world unfolds slowly in light and shadow.

This painting is unframed, but can be hung as is. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

Interior with Fruit
£450
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A charming and vibrant mid-century interior still life that captures a sunlit domestic scene through bold yet lyrical brushwork, executed in oil onto canvas.

A glass vase brimming with orange blossoms and fruit sits atop a rustic wooden table, surrounded by scattered citrus and dark green leaves. The background features a deep blue door, lending the composition a sense of quiet intimacy.

Executed in a modernist style, the painting bears the influence of post-Impressionism, with a strong emphasis on form and colour over fine detail. The palette is warm and inviting – burnt oranges, earthy browns, and greens are offset by the cool blues of the background. The brushstrokes are expressive and confident, with visible texture and gestural energy, lending the piece a sense of immediacy and vitality.

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

Moonrise
£850
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A nostalgic and evocative mid-century modernist style composition, 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.

Two shadowy figures stand quietly before a row of houses, their silhouettes sharply framed by the glow of a pale, full moon. The architectural forms are simplified into clean geometric shapes, giving the scene a sense of quiet solemnity and timelessness.

Rendered in a muted palette of browns and warm taupe, the painting has a sepia effect and captures the hush of twilight with restraint. The sky, a seamless wash of greyish-brown, is interrupted only by the soft white orb of the moon, whose presence adds a haunting serenity to the composition.

The brushwork is smooth and controlled, with subtle tonal gradients lending depth and volume to the buildings and sky. Minimal yet expressive, the artist’s technique emphasises atmosphere over detail, creating a contemplative and emotionally resonant scene.

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.

St Michael’s
£850
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A beautifully framed large landscape composition, painted onto canvas by British artist Nicky Knill Jones.

This painting portrays a striking coastal view of St Michael’s Mount in Cornwall. Rendered with expressive, fluid brushwork, the artwork captures the tidal causeway and surrounding seascape under a vast, luminous sky. The distant silhouette of the mount—its castle and chapel just discernible—rises gently from the horizon, serving as a calm focal point against the expanse of water and sky.

Foreground rocks and textured brushstrokes evoke the movement and shimmer of tidal pools and wet sands, with tones of soft blue, white, and muted earth colors suggesting the meeting of land and sea. The composition’s subtle abstraction and cool palette give the piece an ethereal, dreamlike quality, conveying both the isolation and majesty of this iconic Cornish landmark.

The painting is wonderfully presented within a custom tray frame in white which suits it impeccably. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.
