Biography of Paul AMBILLE

Paul Gaston Jean-Michel Ambille, a French painter and lithographer, was born on December 23, 1930, in Béziers (Hérault), and passed away on July 5, 2010, in Arette (Pyrénées-Atlantiques). He left a significant mark on the French artistic landscape through his distinctive figurative style and remarkable contribution to contemporary art.

Ambille began his artistic journey by enrolling at the École nationale supérieure des beaux-arts de Paris, where he was influenced by renowned masters such as Jean Dupas, Raymond Legueult, and Édouard Goerg. This period of training was pivotal for his artistic development, helping him refine his technique and find his creative voice.

In 1955, Ambille won the prestigious first Grand Prix de Rome for his painting titled 'Decoration for a wedding hall,' which earned him a residence at the Villa Médicis in Rome for four years. This early recognition marked the beginning of a prolific and distinguished career.

His work, mainly figurative, explored a variety of themes, ranging from marine landscapes to scenes of everyday life and sports. Ambille was particularly skilled at capturing the essence of his subjects through clever use of color and light. His works were often characterized by vibrant colors and a lively atmosphere, inviting the viewer to immerse themselves in his creations.

Throughout his career, Ambille was recognized for his exceptional talent and received numerous prestigious awards, including the gold medal at the Salon de la Marine in 1992 and his appointment as the official painter of the Marine in 1993. He also held important roles in the associative and cultural fields, notably serving as president of the Fondation Taylor from 1995 to 2007.

Ambille's works have been widely exhibited in France and abroad, and his paintings and lithographs are part of public and private collections around the world. His artistic legacy endures, continuing to inspire art enthusiasts and contemporary artists with his unique vision and exceptional talent.

Seller's Story

TO KNOW : A professional gallery for almost 20 years, we take particular care with the works which we ship quickly with suitable and secure packaging. Buyers agree to pay for their purchases within 3 days maximum. For any request to group lots, do so before payment, via Catawiki, or by email: info@artdif. Fr . We can generally group +/- 7 works per package from the same sale. Certain lots or works in particular formats require suitable shipping. We therefore group together where possible, but this is in no way an obligation, additional costs linked to customs declaration costs, insurance and adaptation of packaging may be requested. The number of packages needed and shipping costs depend on feasibility. We do not offer any additional services other than those provided in the description or by catawiki. For works in multiples (numbered), unless otherwise noted, the numbering may differ from that shown in the photos. When receiving your order, please check the packaging and the works in the presence of the carrier. In the event of a problem during transport, please report it to the carrier upon receipt and make the necessary reservations, otherwise no complaint will be accepted. A damaged package must be refused to claim compensation. Remember that Catawiki is and must remain a platform for exchange between passionate and educated collectors, so courtesy, respect and politeness must remain rule number 1. Also if you wish to contact us, we will answer you with pleasure, but please form sentences and use polite expressions, because a person is behind the keyboard, it is not yet a robot, and I hope that it will stay that way. Thank you and happy bidding!
