Chantal Grimb was a twentieth century French artist. She was born in 1947 and died in 1988. She was active in the French art scene during the 1960s and 1970s, engaging in various artistic disciplines including dance, theatre, music, and painting. In 1967, she founded the Saint-Exupéry Troupe at the Théâtre de la Porte Saint-Martin in Paris, where she taught acting using the Stanislavski method. Between 1969 and 1972, she also taught painting in Paris.
Her work garnered attention from numerous renowned collectors over the years. Notably, she maintained a warm correspondence with the famous French writer and philosopher Jean Giono, who supported her during challenging times. After his death, she felt she had lost her spiritual father. Throughout her career, she remained dedicated to exploring the evolution of painting, always in search of beauty and wonder, with sincerity and authenticity being essential to her. Between 1966 and 1973, she presented both private and public exhibitions in France, with a significant exhibition in Bordeaux in 1967.
Her pieces often delved into themes of spirituality and the mystical, reflecting her deep connection to the metaphysical aspects of art. She was always in search of beauty and wonder, with sincerity and authenticity being essential to her. Grimb’s work continues to be recognized, especially her unique series Chemin de Croix Noir.
While detailed information about her life and career is limited, her contributions to the art world, particularly her unique approach to painting and her exploration of spiritual themes, continue to be recognized and appreciated by art enthusiasts and collectors.

Pluie a Venice (Venice in the Rain)
By André Hambourg
Located in Costa Mesa, CA
Pluie a Venice is painted in Hambourg's preferred palette of muted blue-green, grey, and gold with splashes of ruby red, deep blue, and emerald green. The soft colors work well for beach scenes and rainy days such as the ones portrayed in this painting. The impressionistic scene shows multiple pedestrians strolling down the boardwalk, shielding themselves from the rain with colorful umbrellas that provide pops of color and balance the overcast sky.
The background contains a three-masted ship and Piazza San Marco's famous bell tower and Basilica.

In their later years, Hambourg and Rachet donated over 300 canvases by Boudin and other artists to the Eugene Boudin Museum in Honfleur, France. It was such a large and important gift that the collection bears...
