SAINT-BRICE Robert (1898 - 1973) The forest... - Lot 78 - Eve
SAINT-BRICE Robert (1898 - 1973) The forest of the Spirits Oil on canvas signed lower right 77 x 61 cm With frame Note : Work reserved by André MALRAUX during his trip to Haiti. Dying shortly after, he could not recover the work. "These paintings of Haiti pose an enigma for us. Because Africa, which obviously inspires them, and this is particularly striking with a Saint-Brice, has no painting. But it is also true that the black song that shook the world, the blues, was not born in Africa either, but from the lament of slaves. Why does color suddenly appear in Haiti rather than in any other island of the West Indies? André MALRAUX, in L'Intemporel
