"Beautiful work with strong contrast by the Corsican painter Pierre Bach which represents a view of the Col de Bavella in Corsica.
In the background, you can see the Aiguilles de Bavella which overlook the Col.
Born in Toul in Meurthe et Moselle, Pierre Bach settled in 1929 in Erbalunga in Corsica. He shares his studio with his friend, the photographer Joseph Moretti. A student at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Nancy, the artist blossomed fully when he arrived in Corsica.
He paints with a knife the beauty of his sites: his villages, his mountain and sea landscapes, his vegetation, ... by a lively painting.
From 1930 to 1933, he participated in the Salon des Artistes Indépendants. He frequently exhibits in the galleries of Ajaccio and in North Africa.
His works are kept in many French and foreign museums as well as in private collections.
