In the multifaceted world of Brazilian art, the name of João Batista da Costa is indelible. Born in Itaguaí on November 24, 1865 and died in Rio de Janeiro on April 20, 1926, he unfolded his talent as a painter, draftsman, teacher and illustrator in an impressive way. His life and art were a symphony of triumph and adversity, from humble origins to nationwide recognition that lives on in vivid art prints of his masterpieces. Batista da Costa came from a humble family. After a poor childhood spent in the Asilo de Meninos Desvalidos in Rio de Janeiro, he found his way to the Imperial Academy of Fine Arts in 1885 through the support of Barão de Mamoré, then Minister of the Empire. There he became a student of Joao Zeferino da Costa and Rodolfo Amoedo, two renowned artists of their time. As early as 1894 he won the prestigious Travel to Europe Prize with his painting "Em Repose", which enabled him to go on a study trip to Paris. There he deepened his artistic creativity at the Julian Academy.
Upon his return to Brazil in 1898, Batista da Costa presented the works he had created in Europe in an exhibition at the Casa Postal in Rio de Janeiro. This period marked the beginning of his recognition, which manifested itself in the award of the Second Class Gold Medal at the General Fine Arts Exhibition in 1900. His success story continued with the presentation of the painting "End of the Journey", which earned him the First Class Gold Medal in 1904. In his personal life, Batista da Costa found happiness with Noêmi Gonçalves Cruz, whom he married in 1905. The couple had four children and led a full life. His commitment to the arts also found expression in his educational work: he was a professor at the National School of Fine Arts from 1906 and directed the institution from 1915 until his death. Batista da Costa is celebrated as an outstanding landscape painter and one of the most important figures in Brazilian painting. His works, whether original or reproduced as high quality art prints, give us a unique view of Brazil's nature and culture. With every art print we produce and offer, we celebrate the extraordinary talent and unforgettable vision of João Batista da Costa.
