János Vaszary is one of the most important and influential artists of Hungarian modernism. Initially active in Hungary and Munich, the inquisitive artist was drawn to Paris in 1899, where he attended the Académie Julien. His stay in Paris and his examination of the contemporary French art movements of Symbolism, Post-Impressionism and Fauvism significantly influenced his work.
Vaszary is regarded as a restless and imaginative painter who was constantly developing his style. He combined his sense for modern trends, which he later passed on to his students at the Hungarian University of Arts, with his exceptional talent as a colourist.
From the estate of Galerie Semiha Huber in Zurich, we are pleased to offer four wonderful works by János Vaszary (lots 3228–3231). The early, large-format painting 'Teichstadt landscape (Tóvárosi tájkép)' from 1913 reflects Vaszary's exploration of the local landscape. 'Tóváros' is part of the Hungarian town of Tata, where Vaszary owned a house. The brushwork and use of colour recall the visual language of the Fauvists around Matisse.
