Nathan Grunsweigh
(Cracow 1880 - 1956 )
Until very recently, little was known about Nathan Grunsweigh. He was born in Krakow in 1880, and between 1901 and 1915 he migrated to Antwerp, Belgium. A few years later, he settled in the western suburb of Le Vésinet, France, with his wife Fanny and their three children. His work revolved around the landscapes of his neighbourhood and Le Vésinet: the villas by the park, the lake, the Croissy bridge, or Le Select, cinema near the train station.
In 1926, he had an exhibition at the Gallery Pierre, where he exhibited around twenty paintings of landscapes of the suburbs and still life. Gustave Kahn wrote of him in the Mercure de France on June 15, 1926 "Grunsweigh 'paints the suburbs of Paris with love.'"
