Maurice Schwab aka 'Grawil''A River Runs Through It', Summer By the Riverbank. Oil on Canvas.
About the Item
A French oil on canvas landscape of a summer riverscape 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 riverbank. He has played with the light and shade to give a wonderful feeling of perspective and depth to the painting. We can feel the languid course of the river reflecting the sunlight. The poplar trees in the distance, the bullrushes and marginal plants, the ancient mulberry trees with their new growth. 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 tranquil 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.
Born in 1946 in Marseille, Grawil studied at the École Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Marseille and the École Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs in Paris. He then worked as a graphic designer, before devoting himself entirely to painting.
Grawil is known for his paintings depicting nature and Provençal landscapes. He uses a brush technique, with impasto, to give relief to his paintings.
Grawil's works are highly appreciated by art lovers in Provence, Southern France and throughout the World. He often depicts everyday scenes, rural landscaped, houses by the sea, lavender fields or olive trees.These works are usually painted in oil on canvas, with great precision in detail.
Grawil is a marker in the Provençal art scene, offering paintings representing the beauty of the landscapes of southern France. His unique style, with impasto and bright colours, has inspired many local artists.
Even today, Grawil is considered one of the must-see painters in the region, and his works are highly sought after by art lovers. His contribution to Provençal art will undoubtedly be celebrated for many years to come.
