Born in Saint-Cantin, France; Paul Guiramand has been awarded as one of the most important french artists after the World War II, as Bernard Buffet. In 1957, Guiramand won the Menton Biennale and Salon des Jeunes Peintres. He was the student of the famous artist Maurice Brianchon, and traveled a lot in western Europe during his early life. Influenced by Matisse and P. Bonnard, the creation themes of Guiramand are always related to music, horses and flower. With bright colors and strong brushwork, he is good at describing the abstractive ambience with the figurative objet. Guiramand's work is collected by Musée d'Art Modern de Ville de Paris, National Library of France, Besançon Fine Arts Museum, Art Institute of Chicago, New Otani Museum in Japan, Tainan Yung Tu Museum of Art.

“Bouquet aux deux violons” features the artist’s notable theme - still life. Most of his works are of rural countryside scenery, with a poetic touch of nostalgia. When Paul Guiramand was still a student, his works could hardly conceal his talent, as his depictions of still life seemed almost mystical. He converted classical romance into contemporary beauty in such a way that it gives viewers much food for thought; where it exists in the spaces of reality, one can’t help but wonder about the mysteries and history behind it all. This piece is extremely dynamic in its handling of light and shadow, color contrast, compositional balance, and structure. The colors of the bouquet and the violin are intense and convincing, surpassing the works of other artists from the same era. Paul Guiramand’s art style is daring yet conservative, his lines traversing through the thoughts of viewers across the canvas and marking him as an iconic member of the contemporary figurative color movement.
