This painting draws the viewer into pristine nature, capturing the scene of a dense forest under a downpour, with a river meandering through it.
Gérard Priault takes inspiration from nature, especially during his extensive travels through tropical rainforests. Immersing himself in these untouched environments, he absorbs their essence, yet his paintings are not direct representations. Instead, they emerge from his imagination, shaped by memories and impressions. These mysterious, dreamlike landscapes invite viewers to imagine the sounds of wildlife, feel the humid air, and marvel at the vivid vegetation.
With a precise and deliberate technique, Gérard Priault constructs his scenes tree by tree, leaf by leaf. For him, creation is an inward journey where time seems to dissolve, and the painting itself guides its composition. This timeless quality is echoed in his works, leaving viewers to wonder: are they witnessing the past, the present, or the future?

Gérard Priault draws his inspiration from nature: during his many trips to the world’s tropical rainforests, the artist immerses himself in an almost contemplative way in untouched nature and allows himself to be totally immersed in its elements. However, his paintings do not represent real rainforests but are the product of his imagination, based on personal memories and impressions. The viewer is invited to travel through these landscapes, which have a mysterious, almost dreamlike atmosphere: they can imagine the sounds of birds and monkeys, feel the humidity in the air and mist, and be amazed by the intense colours of the vegetation. Using a precise and meticulous technique, the artist builds up the landscape tree by tree, leaf by leaf. For him, the creative process is also an inner adventure, in which time no longer exists. “My paintings are images of dreams born of gestures. Each painting is a journey of initiation, filled with new insights.”
