Georges Braque

Born : 1882Died : 1963Documented citizenships : France

Georges Braque (1882–1963) is represented here by a group of works whose titles and dates span several decades and a range of subjects. Works listed by the Art Institute of Chicago include Landscape at L’Estaque and Antwerp, both from 1906, followed by Little Harbor in Normandy, dated to the spring of 1909. The Italian catalogue also lists Pont Miou, dated 1907 and attributed to Braque, in the municipal collections of the Museo del Novecento in Milan.

The references from 1912 to 1914 show a strong presence of still life in the titles: Bal (recto); Guitar (verso), dated 1912, is followed by Still Life with Glass, Dice, Newspaper and Playing Card (1913) and Still Life (1914). These titles bring together objects, instruments, printed matter and games in compositions described as still lifes, without the available entries describing their visual treatment.

The entries from 1936 and 1938 broaden this range of subjects: Woman at an Easel (Green Screen) is dated 1936, and Still Life with Fruits and Stringed Instrument 1938. For the following years, the Art Institute of Chicago lists Ajax, dated 1949/54, Wheatfield, circa 1951, and Amaryllis, dated 1958. Brought together without claiming to summarise his entire oeuvre, these references highlight the diversity of documented subjects, from landscapes and harbour views to still lifes, figures and vegetal motifs.

This profile brings together identity references for Georges Braque and paintings, drawings and works on paper documented in auction catalogues.

10 references are documented at Artcurial Beurret Bailly Widmer, Kornfeld, Piguet, Germann. Each record links to its source; the amounts are not a general valuation of the artist’s work.
