About the Item

JOHANNES SCHIEFER – UNTITLED [VUE SUR LA BAIE DES ANGES] Oil on Canvas ⚜ Signed Lower Left ⚜ Custom Conservation Frame A RADIANT MEDITERRANEAN VIEW BY POST-IMPRESSIONIST JOHANNES SCHIEFER In this sunlit coastal composition, Johannes Schiefer captures the iconic sweep of the Baie des Anges with vibrant clarity and expressive color. Painted circa 1938, likely during Schiefer’s extended stay in southern France, the scene blends precision and lightness—balancing the rhythmic architecture of Nice with the fluid movement of the surrounding sea. Framed by trees in the foreground and set beneath broad skies, the composition evokes the atmospheric serenity of French Riviera landscapes. This rare early work predates Schiefer’s move to the U.S., showcasing his European influences and the painterly style that would later define his reputation in American circles. It is presented in a warm-toned custom wood frame with a canvas liner and remains in excellent condition.
