János Vaszary (1867—1938) was a Hungarian painter who apparently worked in many different styles. I was actually surprised that the Lake Balaton piece was done in 1905. When I decided to post this painting, I was expecting it to be by a modern artist. The colors are just perfect. This is something I would actually put on my wall, just beautiful.
Lake Balaton with Wreathing Clouds (ca 1905)
Lake Balaton is in the transdanubian area of Hungary, and is the largest lake in Central Europe.
Here are a couple more of János' works I really like.
It is the use of the thick black charcoal lines that I love about this one. Sadly, I couldn't find a name for it.

Love, love, love the brushstrokes on this one.
