Lot information
Jiri Herman (1892-1969) was one of the Czech landscape painters who were significantly influenced by Antonin Slavicek, who shaped Czech landscape painting at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. The work from 1923, which depicts a vast landscape with windswept trees under a dramatic sky, bears traces of Slavick's handwriting in the dynamic rendering of nature and in the painter's interest in atmospheric conditions. Here, Herman works with free brushstrokes and a distinct color range, thus continuing the impressionist technique of Antonin Slavicek. The composition of the work shows an emphasis on the immediate impression of the landscape, which Herman was able to transfer to the canvas with extraordinary liveliness and energy.
