Paul Grimm Art

German, 1891-1974
Paul Grimm, a German-born American painter, moved to Palm Springs in 1932 and became one of the most recognized chroniclers of the Coachella Valley and its surrounding mountains. His paintings are valued not only as works of art but also as historical records of the desert before large-scale development. Grimm was a favorite among Hollywood stars and visiting dignitaries, and his gallery in Palm Springs became a landmark for collectors. Large-scale works such as this, combining his signature mountain profiles with a foreground of blooming desert flora, are considered among his most desirable compositions and rarely appear on the market.

Stately Eucalypti

By Paul Grimm

Located in Palm Desert, CA

A painting by Paul Grimm. "Stately Eucalypti" is a landscape painting, oil on board in an earth-tone palette by artist Paul Grimm. The artwork is signed in the lower left, "Paul Grimm". Paul Grimm (1891-1974) was an artist born to German parents in South Africa in 1891. As a small child, he moved with his parents to the United States. He reportedly was seen as having artistic talent as a child and, as an adult, attended a university-level art school in New York. Between 1910 and 1920, he reportedly went to South America for a few years before returning stateside and settling in southern California. Grimm gained much of his present-day fame by painting landscapes of southern California in the 1920s. Many works depict alluvial fans and desert vegetation in the eastern half of Riverside County. The San Jacinto Mountains appear frequently in his work. Most of the works are oil on canvas. A residence on Calle Palo Fierro in the Palm Springs Warm Sands Neighborhood was built for him in 1935. He had a studio on Palm Canyon Drive in Palm Springs from the 1950s until his death in 1974. Provenance: with George Stern Fine Arts...

Head to Sea, Modernist sailing scene

By Ralph Eugene Della-Volpe

Located in New York, NY

A vibrant and yet romantic sailing scene which was a favorite series by Della-Volpe. His compelling colorist approach has made his works desirable as he was one of the few artists post-war to be representative in style like Milton Avery and Wolf Kahn. Head to Sea has the hallmark intense and lovely coloration for which Della-Volpe is known. He came out of Abstract Expressionism in the New York school but then pivoted, like Milton Avery to representational, colorist work. The frame is a silvered gold leaf float frame of quality and has a rubbed, antiqued surface...
