Description

André DERAIN (France/ 1880-1954) Houses in Collioure, July-August 1905 Oil on original canvas Signed 'a derain' (lower right) 33 x 40.8 cm; with frame: 53 x 60 cm Provenance : - Ambroise Vollard, Paris (stock label 3978, on the frame). - Raymond and Suzanne Fischof-La Foux, Paris. The André Derain Committee has confirmed the authenticity of this work. A certificate of authenticity dated January 3, 2024 will be issued to the purchaser. The export passport will be given to the buyer. In a letter addressed to Maurice de Vlaminck from Collioure on August 5, 1905, the 25-year-old André Derain anticipates the number of works he will bring back to Paris for the Salon d'Automne: "I will have, for my return, thirty canvases, twenty drawings and about fifty sketches "1. Quite precise, the information gives a concrete assessment of the production of the mythical stay in Collioure during which Derain and Henri Matisse, between July 5 and August 28, 1905, unleashed the very first artistic revolution of the twentieth century: the Fauve revolution. Nearly a century later, historian Michel Kellermann lists 26 of Derain's 30 Collioure paintings in his 1992 catalog raisonné. "Maisons à Collioure" from 1905, published for the first time, is one of the last missing compositions from the Collioure period to be recognized by the Derain committee in recent years.
