43. Cliff at Balchik [1924]

The year 1924 proved to be a prolific one in the economy of the Romanian artist's creation. He paints in Balcic, Venice and Seville, participates in the Venice Biennale and receives the Crown of Romania with the rank of officer. Overwhelmed by the meshes of the sea and the magic of the sun's rays, he will stop both in the bays of Balcic, and among the Venetian canals. He will also be surprised by Seville, with its landscapes, courtyards or fluorescent nature with incandescent inlays of light. From the mentioned period, we receive a suite of works dedicated to the motif, organized in the form of a discreet travel diary. Samuel Mützner will invoke the atmosphere of the East through the waves of the Black Sea. Balcic will serve as an opportunity for exploration in the realm of light and will facilitate his encounter with a much brighter chromatic palette. He will work here until after the Second World War and will dedicate his name in the epic of the Balcic painters. Above the bay, in the sun-irised cliffs, the Mützners will build a house with a terrace. Here they will receive the visits of friends, colleagues or relatives. Spring mornings, torrid summer afternoons or the brick reverberations of autumn will now find their place among the artist's works. In Balcic, Mützner will take the time to unfold chromatic and stylistic experiments. He will now remember the impressionist period from Giverny and will insert the precepts acquired then in the greys of the rocks, the blue of the sky and the sea, or in the raw green of the vegetation. The meeting point of the soil with the water and the sea with the sky remains a favorite subject of the artist, transformed for a short period in the 1920s into a leitmotif.
