Title: Mid Century French Abstract Tree Expressionist Ink Painting Medium: Black ink and wash on paper, unframed French, circa 1950's Size: 23.75 inches x 15.75 (height x width) Condition: The work is structurally sound though with visible creasing, surface rippling and age related toning throughout the sheet. There is a horizontal fold line across the centre and light edge wear consistent with storage. The ink remains bold and stable. This would benefit from professional flattening and framing. Provenance: from a large collection in Paris Description: A striking mid-century French abstract expressionist ink painting on paper, executed in bold black gestural marks with a strong sense of movement and rhythm. The composition reads as a lively field of calligraphic brushwork, with sweeping strokes, broken textures, and clustered forms that suggest foliage, energy, or a landscape fragment without becoming literal. The confident use of black against the raw paper creates a dramatic, graphic impact, making this an ideal piece for modern interiors, particularly for collectors drawn to monochrome abstraction, post-war European modernism, and expressive works on paper. In this particularly powerful example, the abstract gestures resolve into a sculptural tree form. A thick, sweeping trunk rises from the lower edge of the sheet, curving upward into branching limbs that extend dramatically across the upper half of the composition. The bold, loaded brushstrokes create dense black passages, contrasted with dry-brushed edges that reveal the speed and physicality of execution. The central mass gives the composition weight and presence, while the upward branching creates a sense of growth and vitality. The organic structure is rendered through expressive, economical mark making, aligning closely with the spirit of post-war French Art Informel and modernist landscape abstraction. This fabulous mid century original French expressionist abstract tree painting...

Title: Shere Surrey Village Cottages Trees Country Lane Watercolour Painting Artist: British School, 20th century Medium: watercolour on card, unframed Size: 7 x 10 height x width in inches Signature: unsigned from the images provided Inscription: inscribed verso “Shere Surrey” Stamped verso: no stamp visible from the images provided Provenance: private collection Condition: good overall vintage condition. The sheet shows light age toning, minor handling marks and some surface wear. There is slight edge wear and minor corner wear visible. The painted surface remains bright, attractive and highly decorative. Description: A charming 20th century British School watercolour depicting a peaceful village lane in Shere, Surrey, as inscribed to the reverse. The composition shows a quiet country road leading past trees, garden fencing and traditional village houses, with cottages partially hidden among the foliage. The scene has a gentle English village atmosphere, combining architectural charm with soft natural greenery. The painting is particularly appealing for its calm, observational quality. The artist uses transparent washes of green, brown, ochre and soft blue to capture the trees, hedgerows, sky and village buildings. The central trees create a natural canopy across the composition, while the pale road draws the eye into the scene and towards the cottages beyond. Small details such as the gate, fences, windows and varied rooflines add character without making the work feel overworked. Shere is a highly attractive Surrey village subject, making this watercolour especially appealing for collectors looking for named English locations, Surrey landscapes, village scenes, country lane paintings...

There is something compelling about drawings and sketches made by architects. Loose and full of life this delicious little study, made on the spot, beautifully captures the essence of place. Made during one of Patterson's early tours to India it shows the gloriously majestic Palace Museum in Udaipur, Rajasthan, which sits on the highest point overlooking Lake Pichola and the City. The delicate wash of terracottas, pinks and reds offers us the feel of sun on the old stones.
