| Girieud. It has been said that Girieud's painting was laborious. Certainly. This is his pride and I understand it. Girieud is a Mediterranean. In his works, there is sometimes a little awkwardness of these artists of ancient Provence, when they tried, in these Gallo-Roman marbles found in the ground, between Arles and Avignon, to regain the majesty Roman. It could be a thunderous, paint with saffron and shine, garlic, his paint. No, he took Provencal terroir his faculty of passionate and taciturn respect. It is a noble artist that Girieud. He rises to an austere beauty and has set his glory to take the hardest and longest path. |
