Johanna / Hanni Bay was a Swiss feminist artiste; a strong woman, single mother to three children, who compromised rarely when it came to her art. She studied in Paris, as well as under the famous Cuno Amiet, but didn't really exhibit often. Many portraits of her were painted to make ends meet. However she really shone especially, when painting outdoors ‘plein air’ in nature, creating her alpine landscapes.
In those days the Swiss alps were a male domain, which she - in spite of being unwelcome in the various high altitude SAS mountain chalets - 'successfully', together with other female artists such as her friend Marcella Grundig, infiltrated, to rub shoulders with the male alpine landscapers of the day.
Today her work is held in all important museums in Switzerland and has been shown in posthumous exhibitions.
This plein air painting on offer, depicting the indigenous pine trees of the region known as Arven trees, was probably created the 30's, whilst she lived in the Grisons of Switzerland.
The frame has been added later by the previous owner.

- Alfons Alphons Müller (1898-1955) Expressive Oil Painting Switzerland c. 1950By Alphons MüllerLocated in Meinisberg, CHAlphons (Alfons) Müller (Swiss, * 24.8.1898 Mitlödi, † 8.6.1955 Biel) ' Im Häfeli ' The small harbor at the Lake of Biel / Bienne in Switzerland • Oil on artist board, ca. 47 x 38 cm • Frame, ca. 54 x 45 cm • Signed bottom right Worldwide shipping for this object is complimentary - There are no additional charges for handling & delivery. Alphons Müller lived and worked in the watch industries in Biel/Bienne in Switzerland up to about 1933. He then decided to become a full-time artist and painted landscapes, still lifes, portraits/nudes in various styles up to his early death in 1955. Alphons Müller was the proverbial hardworking bohemian artist. He lived in a small cold room above a pup and often struggled to make ends meet. On one hand he would paint commercial views of local beauty spots - often of the Lake of Bienne. These paintings were generally executed using very thin paint layers (to make the expensive material last longer ...) in a very bright impressionist style. On the other hand, he would create intelligent, generous and deep reaching images - especially during the war. In the late thirties he meets his two loyal patrons, the baker Werner Gass and the pharmacist...Category
