Maurice Schwab aka 'Grawil'
Summer at the Lake. French Oil on Canvas Landscape.

About the Item

A French oil on canvas landscape of trees, landscape and the mountains beyond a lake by Maurice Schwab also known as 'Grawil'. The painting is signed bottom right and presented on a fine chassis with 'keys' in a wood frame with gilt filet. Grawil has captured all the charm of a lazy, late summers day at the lake. He has played with the light and shade to give a wonderful feeling of depth to the painting. In the sunlight on the far riverbank the bright greens of the foliage contrast with the foreground where there is more shade and the trees are just beginning to change colour to their autumn glory. The lake is still with the reflection of the sky and the mountains. Grawil has created a charming peaceful scene that invites us in to share and enjoy the calm. He has used both brush and palette knife to give texture to the composition, highlights, light and shade. Grawil has captured all the magic of this landscape. Grawil, the Provençal painter Grawil is a Provençal painter, a part of the art scene in the South of the France. His real name is Maurice Schwab, but he chose to sign his works under the pseudonym Grawil.

His unique style, with impasto and bright colours, has inspired many local artists.

His contribution to Provençal art will undoubtedly be celebrated for many years to come.
