Private sellerProduct description
This painting is a still life: an oil on canvas signed by the French painter Jean Grimal (1942–1998), known for his realistic compositions inspired by chiaroscuro and 17th-century Dutch masters.
Jean Grimal usually signs his canvases in the lower right with an academic style highly sought after in the art market. Jean Grimal (1942–1998) is a 20th-century French painter.
Born in Tulle in 1942, he showed an early talent for drawing, winning prizes in inter-school competitions. He joined the École Claude Bernard in Paris, where he obtained his art diploma.
He began as a drawing and plastic arts teacher for seven years. In 1967, he worked as a high-level advertising illustrator. For over 25 years, he collaborated with the prestigious Studio 44 (Lise Goldfard agency). There, he created visuals for major French industry and luxury accounts, including Air France, Peugeot, Christofle, and Lacoste. This advertising rigor bequeathed him millimeter precision in tracing and rendering forms.
But Jean Grimal increasingly dedicated himself to his passion for classical painting and began exhibiting his canvases in galleries in Paris, Cannes, but also in London and Windsor. He was notably represented during his lifetime by the famous Chetkin Gallery in the United States, which greatly contributed to making his works known to international collectors.
The Dutch school: Jean Grimal's style is directly in line with the aesthetic of the 17th-century Flemish and Dutch masters.
I would like to specify that the painting has been seen by painting experts and authenticated. It was purchased by my father (I am in possession of the sales certificate signed by the seller) in 1997 from Michel Saint Alban (also a painter) who then offered it to me, but I wish to part with it - the condition of the oil on canvas is perfect, there are just two small scratches on the frame, see the last two photos - fast and careful shipping guaranteed✅
