Giovanni Müller
Born in 1890.
Died in 1970.
Giovanni Müller was an artist whose oeuvre is distinguished by his practice of painting and wood engraving. Trained as an embroidery designer, he co-founded the Xylon association, dedicated to wood engraving. From 1933 onwards, he devoted himself almost exclusively to this technique, producing works that explore peasant genre scenes as well as illustrations for books.
His artistic career reflects a commitment to craft traditions and a sensitivity to the representation of rural everyday life.
