About the Item
Gorgeous European figurative of a simpler time. Horses being watered in the plains by Janos Viski (Hungarian/American 1891-1965), circa 1940. Signed lower right with partial label "Stopping to water the driven horses". A well established artist on two continents with many awards.
Janos Viski was a student of the Academy of Fine Arts (Hungarian University of Fine Arts, Budapest ). First exhibited in 1921, he specialized in naturalist animal paintings, full of movement. From 1920 on, he spent many years in South America, before coming back to Hungary to stay in the Hortobagy Plains.
His favorite subjects are groups of horses, but he also excels in landscapes with cows, carts and his fine idyllic scenes rendering the world of scattered farms in the great Hungarian Plains. All his pictures display strength and impulse, brilliant knowledge of anatomy and superior draftsmanship. He is particularly fond of browns mellowed by green.
His paintings could and can be seen at numerous exhibitions. He was awarded a Grand Prix at the 1936 Salon des Beaux Arts in Paris. He is one of the favorite and most recognized Hungarian painters abroad
