WRITTEN IN FRENCH

Painter of Mediterranean skies and an Orient more dreamed than real, Félix Ziem (1821-1911) was a nomadic, unclassifiable, eccentric artist. Studying architecture at the Beaux-Arts in Dijon, he quickly broke with this environment and began a long career in the 1840s. He discovered, dazzled, the Mediterranean world. He was also a great traveler traveling through Russia, Constantinople, Venice, Africa...
A great friend of the Barbizon painters, he admired Lorrain and Turner, but also the Dutch masters as well as the great Italian painters of the Renaissance. An admirable draftsman, as evidenced by his notebooks, he mastered watercolor, pencil, pen and sepia drawing with great dexterity, creating dreamlike universes with the most varied subjects. Wealthy and famous in his time, he attracted a large clientele. It was gradually forgotten by institutions and it was only in recent years that it was rediscovered.
