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...

After late-Expressionist beginnings in the 20s, he created in the early 30s, probably the most-respected part of his work, those strictly built, color-sparing tempera images that are the New Objectivity and the Magic Realism assigned, Barth's paintings of the early 1930s seem to express the loneliness of man in the face of a colder and more threatening social situation. The constructivist rigor of these works is transformed in the American paintings of 1936 into a more painterly style with a richer modeling of the subject matter, without abandoning the theme: the images reflect the loneliness and emptiness of the not only American "way of life" - they became repeatedly compared to works by Edward Hopper.
