Description
Jean Alexandru Steriadi (b. 1880, Bucharest, Romania - d. 1956, Bucharest, Romania) was a Romanian painter, known for his portraits, drawings, caricatures, and Impressionist landscapes. He graduated from the School of Fine Arts in Bucharest, as well as studied at the Royal Academy of Painting in Munich and the Julian Academy in Paris.
In his landscapes, Steriadi adopted the techniques of plein-airism, especially following his visits in Provence, Brittany, and Northeast Italy. Both winter and seaside sceneries are heavily present in Steriadi’s work, in both rural and urban settings. His use of warm and bright colours creates peaceful and harmonious plays of light, engendering picturesque atmospheres.
Steriadi received the Romanian Grand National Prize for Painting in 1930 and The Romanian Academy Award in 1938. He was the director of the Theodor Aman Museum and the Dr. Ioan and Nicolae Kalinderu Museum.
