Gabriel Griffon (1866-1938) was a French painter and sculptor from Toulouse, particularly renowned for his gallant scenes executed in a style similar to that of Monticelli, but with a lighter touch. He distinguished himself above all through his work in watercolor, a medium in which he developed a remarkable mastery of light, transparency, and subtle tones. His work consists mainly of genre scenes, elegant figures, and lively landscapes.
Gabriel Griffon's works are primarily exhibited in Agen, in southwestern France. His house at 17 rue Carnot in Agen has been transformed into the Musée Griffon, dedicated to his memory and the presentation of his work. This museum displays original works by the painter, primarily from periods he spent in Agen, Bordeaux, and Nice. A retrospective exhibition was held at the Agen cultural center in 1997 to celebrate his work.
