  • Valias SEMERTZIDES (Greek), The young fisherman
    Jan. 12, 2020

    Valias SEMERTZIDES (Greek), The young fisherman

    Est: €1,200 - €1,800

    Title: The young fisherman oil tempera on hardboard signed lower right, painted pre 1971 Valias Semertzides was born in Russia in 1911. His father was of Greek descent and his mother Russian. In 1922, following the Russian Revolution and creation of the Russian Federation, his parents moved to Greece where his father established a Dance School. In 1928 he enrolled at The School of Fine Arts, Athens where he studied painting under Constantinos Parthenis, a figure whose influence is evident in his early works. Between 1923 and 1937 Valias Semertzides gave dance lessons in his father’s school and worked primarily on poster art and book illustration. Between 1937 and 1940 he exhibited with ‘Ελεύθεροι Καλιτεχναι’, a group of communist artists that included Alexandros Koroyiannakis, Demetrios Yioldasis, Costas Plakotaris and Dimitrios Davis. During the German occupation of Greece, Semertzidis was an active member of the Greek resistance and fled to the mountains to fight the Nazi regime. This was an influential period that inspired his great later works that showed the hardship endured by Greeks during this period. His work after the war is divided into two parts: capturing the everyday life of the lower classes and landscape painting. From 1964 to his death he spent much of his time on the island of Rhodes where he worked on large scale fresco works for public buildings and hotels, inspired by the island’s landscape.

  • Valias Semertzides (1911-1983) Paysage
    Oct. 15, 2015

    Valias Semertzides (1911-1983) Paysage

    Est: €4,000 - €6,000

    Valias Semertzides (1911-1983) Paysage Huile sur panneau signé et daté en bas à gauche Né en Russie en 1911, Semertzidis arrive à Athènes à l’âge de 12 ans. En 1928, il intègre l’École des Beaux-Arts de la capitale grecque et gagne sa vie en réalisant des illustrations et des affiches de film. Doublement inspiré par la peinture réaliste russe et les pères de la modernité hellénique, l’artiste évolue après-guerre vers un expressionniste critique marqué par le réalisme soviétique. Ce paysage de montagne rappelle l’influence des peintres germaniques – et notamment suisses – sur les artistes grecs de cette époque. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION: Oil on panel signed and dated on the lower left
