Maxime Maufra Art

French, 1861-1918
French artist Maxime Maufra began painting at aged 18, under the influence of local artists to him in Nantes. Sent to Liverpool by his father in the early 1880s, Maufra visited the National Gallery, where exposure to J.M.W. Turner’s dramatic light and colour profoundly influenced his artistic vision. Whilst working in business, Maufra painted in his free time and debuted at the Paris Salon in 1886, earning praise from critic Octave Mirbeau, who reviewed his early works favourably. In 1890, Maufra abandoned his commercial path and moved to Brittay. There he encountered Paul Gaugin and Paul Sérusier, absorbing Synthesist Ideas, yet always maintaining independence from any artistic school. His first solo exhibition took place in Paris in 1894 at Le Barc de Boutteville, launching his career under the representation of the prominent art dealer Durand-Ruel, a partnership that lasted throughout his life. Maufra became the first painter to reside in the fames Bateau-Lavoir, a Montmartre artists' hub later linked to Picasso and other avant-garde figures. Maufra’s work remains in prominent collections worldwide, including the Musée d’Orsay in Paris, the Tate in London and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.

Impressionistic Summer Landscape with Road Painted 1889

Located in Stockholm, SE

Carl Johansson's "Summer Landscape with Road" is an exquisite landscape that encapsulates the serene beauty of the Swedish countryside. Painted in 1889, the same year Johansson showcased his work at the Exposition Universelle in Paris, one can't help but wonder if this very painting was among those displayed at the fair. "Summer Landscape with Road" offers a glimpse into the idyllic Swedish countryside through its masterful depiction. The scene is bathed in the distinctive light of the sun positioned at 30 degrees north-northwest, a unique aspect of Johansson's artworks. The viewer's eye is drawn along a winding dirt road that meanders through a tranquil pastoral landscape. Birch trees, with their white bark and tender green leaves, stand tall and sway gently, marking the passage toward a distant homestead nestled beside a calm lake. The rustic wooden fences and the clear sky, dotted with soft, billowing clouds, evoke a sense of peaceful solitude. Johansson's meticulous attention to detail and colour is evident in every brushstroke, from the lush greenery to the soft, earthy path leading to the horizon. The artist's signature use of light not only highlights the natural beauty of the North but also enhances the sense of depth and realism in the painting. Johansson's early works, such as this one, are exceedingly rare, making "Summer Landscape with Road" not only a visual delight but also a collector's gem. The painting's magnificent gold frame enhances the bright, vivid colours of the small-format artwork, creating an impactful presence. Carl Johansson's blue impressionistic depictions of Northern Sweden earned him the nickname "Ultramarine Johansson", and his paintings are celebrated in prestigious collections, including the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, Kalmar Art Museum, and the municipality of Hudiksvall. oil on canvas signed and dated Carl Johansson . 89 . unframed 27 x 39 cm framed 41,5 x 53 cm Provenance: The previous owner bought it in 1988 at Åmells Stockholm...
