A U G U S T E H E R B I N (1882 – 1960)
Comparative image(early 1900 postcard) Bruges, Quai Vert, Maison du Pélican
Auguste Herbin stayed in Bruges during part of the year 1906. At this point Herbin adopted a Post-Impressionist style and vibrant colour palette, which are similar with works by Fauvist painters who were contemporaries to Auguste Herbin. The present work compares with three oil paintings executed in the same year and illustrated by Geneviève Claisse (Herbin: Catalogue Raisonné de L’Oeuvre Peint, Paris 1993, p.292), titled Quai de la Poterie, à Bruges; Le Canal, Bruges, and Maisons du Quai de la Porterie (Catalogue number 74-76). Groenerei (literally Green Bank, or Quai Vert) is a tree-lined bank in the heart of romantic Bruges, the Venice of the North. At no. 8stands theHouse of the Pelican (De Pelikaan). This 1714building bears the emblem of the pelican, and was once an almshouse, offering accommodation for the poor. All along the canal are historic buildings and bridges, framed by tall green trees, and colourful flowers in the summer. Auguste Herbin was seduced by the beauty of Groenerei which offers equally charming colours every season.
