Félix Ziem
Peonies on a Palette

1892

About the Item

A fine impressionist painting of peonies on a palette by French artist Felix François Georges Philibert Ziem (1821-1911). Ziem was born in Beaune, France, studied at the Ecole d'Architecture de Dijon. Ziem was well-traveled, and was an active participant in the Paris Salons from 1849 on, making frequent trips to Barbizon, where he lived in a small circus caravan while painting. After 1888 his paintings show the influence of the Barbizon School's naturalistic approach, a greater attention to atmosphere and an increasingly impressionist style. Ziem owned houses in Venice, Martigues, Nice (where he wintered), and on rue Lepic in Paris. Among his students was the young English Princess Victoria, later queen of Britain. He was the recipient of many awards and honors and was made a Chevalier of the Legion of Honor in 1857 and an Officer of that order in 1878. On his death, Ziem bequeathed to the city of Paris a number of studies and drawings from his studio. His paintings are found in museum collections throughout Europe as well as in North America. Oil on wooden palette, signed, inscribed and dated 1892 lower right, with a small repair to the palette on the lower right. The verso has been lined with velour. Dimensions: 10.5 in H x 14.38 in W x .5 in D. Ref: 8
