Johannes Schiefer Art

American, Dutch, 1896-1979

Johannes Schiefer was born in 1896 in Alsace and attended the Düsseldorf Art Academy in Germany. He later moved to Paris, where he began his formal art training. Schiefer lived and painted in southern France and Europe until he, his wife, and young daughter fled France for New York in 1942. In the USA, he continued to paint and exhibit his work at New York galleries. Later in life, he was the curator of the Parrish Art Museum in Southampton, Long Island. Born in the late 19th century, Schiefer was no doubt introduced to Impressionism as a young art student, and it is not all that surprising that he chose to continue to paint in a post-Impressionist style. However, his paintings differ from period Impressionist paintings in that he injects them with a lighthearted almost illustrative quality. His scenes of Paris, for instance, include cars, boats and small figures engaged inactivity, that reflect the daily rhythm of the city. His works had broad appeal and were collected and treasured by many serious collectors, which explains why so many of his paintings are displayed in beautifully ornate period frames.

"Sunday Florals" Colorful Impressionist Still Life Scene Oil on Canvas Painting

By Johannes Schiefer

Located in New York, NY

A charming floral still life scene oil on canvas painting by the French artist, Johanne Schiefer. With pink, white, and purple flower arrangement in a clear glass vase, with some few petals that fell lying on the surface. This painting is a wonderful example of his work from the prime of his career with simple florals with an abundance of color and life. The piece is signed by the artist lower left and it comes housed in a wonderful multicolor vintage wood frame and hanging wire on verso ready to be displayed. Art measures 16 x 12 inches Frame measures 19.5 x 15.5 inches Johannes Schiefer was born in 1896 in the Netherlands, and quickly gained notoriety for his landscapes, still life’s and portraits. Schiefer won the Prix de Rome at the age of 19 and studied at the Düsseldorf Academy in Germany, and then moved to Paris where he continued his studies in art at the Beaux Arts, and later at the Villa Medici in Rome. He traveled to paint across Europe, primarily France and Italy and also Latin America. Like Picasso, Schiefer never permitted himself to be “type-cast” in a single monotonous style. If there is anything that typifies his work, it is his versatility, his deft handling of subdued tones to create a unique brilliance of light and color that stamps every painting with his own individuality. In February 1964, Ethel Kennedy...

Being able to go to my studio five days weekly and paint for several hours, living in a supportive community, having family and friends who encourage me--all have contributed to helping me become an artist. Being fortunate to study with some of the artists I admire has kept me painting from the garden, people and my favorite things. With the support of galleries, teaching and doing demos, how could I do anything else? My goal is to try to be the best I can be by always being a student, looking for new ideas and stretching my horizons." Upon retirement from a 33-year teaching career, Lu rented a studio in Loveland and began concentrating on her oil and watercolor painting. Learning from artists she had followed and admired throughout the years her painting became a full time career. Since 1992, she has studied with renowned painters Richard Schmid, Clyde Aspevig, Joyce Pike, and others at the Scottsdale Art...
