IMPRESSIONIST STYLE

Emerging in 19th-century France, Impressionist art embraced loose brushwork and plein-air painting to respond to the movement of daily life. Although the pioneers of the Impressionist movement — Claude Monet, Edgar Degas, Paul Cézanne, Berthe Morisot, Camille Pissarro, and Pierre-Auguste Renoir — are now household names, their work was a radical break with an art scene led and shaped by academic traditions for around two centuries. These academies had oversight of a curriculum that emphasized formal drawing, painting and sculpting techniques and historical themes.

The French Impressionists were influenced by a group of artists known as the Barbizon School, who painted what they witnessed in nature. The rejection of pieces by these artists and the later Impressionists from the salons culminated in a watershed 1874 exhibition in Paris that was staged outside of the juried systems. After a work of Monet’s was derided by a critic as an unfinished “impression,” the term was taken as a celebration of their shared interest in capturing fleeting moments as subject matter, whether the shifting weather on rural landscapes or the frenzy of an urban crowd. Rather than the exacting realism of the academic tradition, Impressionist paintings, sculptures, prints and drawings represented how an artist saw a world in motion.

Many Impressionist painters were inspired by the perspectives in imported Japanese prints alongside these shifts in European painting — Édouard Manet drew on ukiyo-e woodblock prints and depicted Japanese design in his Portrait of Émile Zola, for example. American artists such as Mary Cassatt and William Merritt Chase, who studied abroad, were impacted by the work of the French artists, and by the late 19th century American Impressionism had its own distinct aesthetics with painters responding to the rapid modernization of cities through quickly created works that were vivid with color and light.

Summer Landscape with Farmhouse and Horses, Impressionist Drawing
Summer Landscape with Farmhouse and Horses, Impressionist Drawing

Summer Landscape with Farmhouse and Horses, Impressionist Drawing

Located in Stockholm, Stockholm

This summer landscape with horses grazing in a paddock under the rays of the sun beside a rural farmstead is a finely executed drawing in brown, signed lower right by Swedish female artist Ester Almqvist (1869-1934). A winding path leads the viewer into the composition, where buildings, fences, and vegetation define a cultivated countryside. Two horses stand quietly within the enclosed field, their forms rendered with spare yet assured lines. Above them, the sun shines from a clear sky, its rays spreading outward in rhythmic, hand-drawn strokes that cover all of the sky. The composition is built through a lively and vibrating pen line, where hatching and linear repetition create both texture and luminosity. The warm sepia tone unifies the scene, while the expressive draughtsmanship conveys a sense of immediacy and presence. The motif is elevated through a distinctly personal interpretation of landscape and light. Ester Dorothea Almqvist was born in 1869 in Bromma, Stockholm and died in 1934 in Lund, south Sweden. She emerged as a significant figure in Swedish art at the turn of the twentieth century, initially associated with the National Romantic movement, before later contributing to the introduction of modernist tendencies in Sweden through a highly individual synthesis of Neo Impressionist and Expressionist elements. Her early life was shaped by a religious and intellectually engaged environment. Almqvist lived her entire life with a physical disability caused by a spinal deformity, which limited her mobility but did not prevent her from pursuing an artistic career. Following her mother’s death, Almqvist broke with her earlier environment and relocated to Skåne, where she would spend the greater part of her professional life. The landscapes of southern Sweden became central to her artistic production and provided the basis for many of her most characteristic works. Her artistic education began at Tekniska skolan in Stockholm (1888–1891), where she received foundational training in drawing and design. She continued her studies through private lessons with the history painter Gustaf Cederström, but chose not to apply to the Royal Academy of Fine Arts. Instead, she pursued further training at Valand Art School in Gothenburg, where instruction was led by prominent artists such as Carl Larsson and Richard Bergh. She also studied for a period at the Konstnärsförbundet’s school (Artists' Association), under the guidance of Per Hasselberg and Bruno Liljefors...

Sierra Nevada Spain Mountain Landscape Modernist Watercolour on Handmade Paper

Sierra Nevada Spain Mountain Landscape Modernist Watercolour on Handmade Paper

Located in Cirencester, Gloucestershire

**Title:** Sierra Nevada Spain Mountain Landscape Modernist Watercolour on Handmade Paper **Artist:** European School, 20th century **Medium:** Watercolour on handmade paper, unframed **Size:** 7.75 x 11.25 inches **Signature:** Unsigned **Stamped verso:** No stamp visible from the images provided **Provenance:** Private collection **Condition:** Fair to good vintage condition. The handmade paper shows age toning, surface marks, pinholes, creasing, handling wear and irregular deckled edges. There are visible losses, nicks and roughness to the lower edge, with further wear and small losses to the corners and outer margins. The painted image remains atmospheric, decorative and visually appealing. **Description:** A striking 20th century European School watercolour landscape, painted on textured handmade paper and inscribed verso **Sierra Nevada Spain**. The composition depicts a dramatic mountain range with snow-covered peaks, layered slopes and a dark band of distant cloud or sea beyond. The scene has a bold, simplified quality, combining the atmosphere of a travel study with the structure of a modernist landscape. The painting is particularly appealing for its graphic treatment of mountain forms. The artist reduces the Sierra Nevada view into broad planes of muted blue, grey, brown, ochre and cream, allowing the snowy ridges and angular slopes to stand out clearly against the darker background. The result is atmospheric yet design-led, with the mountain landscape arranged almost as a series of abstract colour fields. The handmade paper adds considerable character to the work. Its warm natural tone, visible fibres, pinholes and irregular deckled edges give the piece a tactile, artisanal quality, enhancing the sense of the painting as an original travel study or plein air-inspired work. The painted area sits within the sheet, leaving the surrounding handmade paper visible and giving the work a distinctive object-like presence. The verso inscription identifies the subject as **Sierra Nevada Spain**, giving the piece useful topographical and search appeal. The Sierra Nevada mountain range in southern Spain has long attracted artists and travellers for its dramatic peaks, changing light and contrast between high mountain scenery and warmer Mediterranean tones. This watercolour captures that sense of rugged landscape through a restrained but expressive palette. This original work would appeal to collectors of Spanish landscapes, Sierra Nevada paintings...
