Johannistrieb is a 1895 oil by Franz Xaver Simm, held at Kunsthistorisches Museum.
The painting depicts a man and woman seated in a room, engaged in conversation. The man, dressed in a black jacket with gold embroidery, sits on a chair with his back to the viewer, while the woman, wearing a blue dress and a pink headband, sits on a chair facing him. The room is decorated with a white tablecloth, a vase of flowers, and a green curtain. The woman holds a teacup in her hand, and the man appears to be gesturing towards her. The atmosphere of the scene is intimate and relaxed, with the two figures lost in conversation. For more information on the artist behind this work, look up Franz Xaver Simm.
Franz Xaver Simm (1853–1918) was an artist, born in Vienna.
