Felix Ziem Art

French, 1821-1911

Felix Ziem was born in Beaune, Burgundy in 1821. Originally Ziem planned to be an architect and studied at the National School of Architecture of Nancy in Dijon. For a while, he worked as an architect. In 1839, he moved to Marseilles, where he received some informal instruction in painting from Adolphe Monticelli (1824–86). Painting developed from a hobby into a career following a visit in 1841 to Italy, where he fell in love with the city of Venice, a place that would become the source for many of his works and to which he returned annually until 1892. Apart from Venetian scenes, he also painted many still lifes, portraits and landscapes from a variety of places: including Constantinople, Martigues, Cagnes-sur-Mer and his native Burgundy. Ziem's works were first exhibited in 1849 at the Salon in Paris and he remained a regular exhibitor there for many years. He also traveled extensively throughout Europe and in 1860, he moved to Montmartre, the artistic district of Paris. Financially successful, he was known to help young artists. In 1857, the French government recognized his contribution to the art world by making him a Chevalier of the Legion of Honor.

Located in Marlow, Buckinghamshire

Signed orientalist landscape oil on canvas circa 1875 by French impressionist painter Felix Francois Georges Philbert Ziem. The work depicts the Santa Maria della Salue - an important Roman Catholic church - which stands on The Grand Canal in Venice. In the distance the Campanile can be seen on the far left hand side of the canal. Gondola's can be seen travelling down the blue water of the vast canal. Signature: Signed lower right Dimensions: Framed: 33"x39" Unframed: 26"x32" Provenance: This work appears under reference 1236 in Pierre Miquel's catalogue raisonne of Felix Ziem. This work was exhibited at the American Art Association in New York - 1917 The authenticity of this work has been confirmed by the Association Felix Ziem (Mr. David Pluskwa & Mr. Ary Jan) and will be included in the forthcoming update to the catalogue raisonne of Felix Ziem. A certificate of authenticity from the Association Felix Ziem is available on request. Private collection United States. Félix Ziem's father was a Croat who settled in Bourgogne in 1814, and his mother was from the same region. He studied at the École d'Architecture et des Beaux-Arts in Dijon, which had been founded and was run by the painter Anatole Devosge, a pupil of David. He received a second prize in drawing and architecture in 1839. In 1841, after a long journey on foot, he settled in Nice, where he began to receive commissions from the city's bourgeoisie. From 1842, he travelled in Italy, visiting Rome, before discovering Venice, which became his second home. Between 1845 to 1892 he visited Venice regularly, often for several months in the year; he worked from his boat, which served as his studio as well as his living quarters. Ziem was a complete painter, at ease in portraits, still-lifes, flower painting and genre scenes, of both history and contemporary subjects. Nevertheless, he is most known for his landscapes. His body of work includes numerous watercolours. In his drawings, and especially in his travel journals, while showing his taste by his selection and composition of subjects, he left a precious testament of his times. After Guardi and Canaletto, he affirmed a new vision of Venice...
