Impressionist painting - pair of oil on cardboard signed by Jehann Berjonneau.

Hello. I am offering two oils on thick cardboard in perfect condition signed by Jehann BERJONNEAU (1890-1966) representing two typical views of the city of AMSTERDAM. Nicknamed "The Venice of the North" with its 165 canals stretching 100 km, its urban landscapes show many similarities to those of the famous capital of Venice. Built in the 17th century during the Dutch Golden Age, these canals are the result of excellent urban planning. As a result, the city of AMSTERDAM was designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 2010. AMSTERDAM is the birthplace of many artists. Among the most famous are REMBRANDT and Van GOGH, whose museum is still very popular. The RIJKSMUSEUM also houses the finest collection of paintings in the city. The dimensions of each painting are identical. Frame dimensions: 45 cm x 37 cm. Artwork dimensions: 40 cm x 32 cm. These two oils on thick cardboard, which may be around a century old, are in perfect condition. These works have been cleaned, and a satin anti-UV varnish from WINSOR and NEWTON has been applied by a professional. Two identical, recent, and modern frames have been added, which are particularly sturdy and designed to last (glued, nailed, and stapled). Influenced by the works of Jean-François MILLET, Camille COROT, and Gustave COURBET, Jehann BERJONNEAU (1890 - 1966) is a self-taught painter. It was from 1920 that he began to gain some notoriety by drawing inspiration from and associating with famous artists of his time such as: Robert Louis ANTAL, Gaston BALANDE, Edmond CERIA, André HAMBOURG, and Paul-Émile PISSARRO, with whom he formed an association called the "Groupe moderne." He is a member of the "Société coloniale des artistes français," the "Salon des indépendants," the "Salon d'automne," and the Salon des Tuileries. He regularly exhibits in numerous galleries in France.
