Description
Christian Nice was born in Pretoria in 1939. He was a self-taught artist who lived and worked in Cape Town. Nice was an impressionist who become famous for his
diversified subjects in the form of oil paintings depicting a variety of subjects, including still life’s, harbour scenes, landscapes, cottages and donkey carts, and District Six, as well as excellent studies of children, in a subdued colour palette. What also makes Christiaan Nice so unique is that he is totally self-taught.
He is also one of the few South African artists whose work are in such demand that they have attained investment status, steadily increasing in value. His retirement further enhances their value as his work becomes increasingly more scarce.
In the past his works were found in all the leading South African Art Galleries and in Art Exhibitions nationwide, which has made his work so sought after.
