PARIS



The house of T F Šimon in Paris, Ca.1912
 


2008
Rue Humboldt 25 (14th district of Paris). From ca.1926 on this street was called Rue Jean Dolant. In the thirties the small part of Rue Jean Dolant, in where this house is located, got the name Rue Verhaeren. This is the present name for the small alley in where the house is located. A French couple was so kind to give the opportunity to make an image from out of a window of their house.

Pont Marie, Paris

 


2008
 
The Pont Marie was one of the group of three bridges designed to open up the Ile Saint Louis when its urbanisation began in the 17th century. It joins the island to the right bank and is the counterpart to the Pont de la Tournelle, along the same axis but on the left bank side. This system was completed by the Pont Saint Louis joining up with the Ile de la Cité. This bridge was the due to the obstinacy of the enterprising Christophe Marie, who as early as 1605 proposed its construction and after whom it is named.

A part of a letter written by T.F. Šimon to his wife Vilma.
Translation into English by Mr. Ivan Šimon, son of the artist. 2003.

Amsterdam, Victoria Hotel. Mai 15, 1912

------------------I will stay here still longer (perhaps 14 days) and give my best efforts to my work, which will be my only consolation. These days a representative of the Dorens (a very pleasant man) took me around Amsterdam – through sections I never dreamed of – some sort of ghetto- from which I expect to gain some inspiration--------------------
These days I was showing to Dorens and his representative my work, drawings, oil-sketches, and colour drawings and we agreed on the selection of subjects. Now it remains to produce the designs for the copper plates. I have already one almost finished and I want to produce at least one more, so that I would not need to come back here from Paris.. As I wrote you; they (the Dorens) are quite good people, businessmen of course, but of quite different kind, say the Petits or other French businessmen. Surprisingly, they are understanding, they give me complete freedom in the choice of my subjects and the way of rendering it and they do not ask for (as I expected it) some well known views of Amsterdam, rather then letting me to do some intimate, unusual subjects. I worked a lot these days and I will have a lot of material for both the colour as well as the black etchings. For the black ones, I was most impressed by the Jewish quarter, the people as well the character of the little streets. If we stay in Paris this summer I hope to finish some of these etchings in addition to the colour ones which were ordered.--------------------

Zaandam. 1909

A drawing in pencil, signed in pencil Zaandam FS, showing the windmill called ‘Sint Willibrordus '(also called 'Verdwaalde boer'), situated at ‘Het Kalf” in Zaandam (Holland). On the background you can see the mill called ‘Oranjeboom’. The windmill St. Willibrordus was built in 1669 as an oil-windmill and since 1892 used as a peeling mill. In 1938 the windmill was demolished to its base.  

 









Zaandam.
This photo was taken by the artist himself on a trip to Holland starting the 20's. All the windmills on the photo are now demolished.
The yard of the mill 'Sint Willibrordus'  is nowadays situated on the terrain of factory Gerkens-cacao.

Whistler (1834-1903)
The balcony, Amsterdam. (K405iii)1889.
(Oudezijds Achterburgwal).
 

Whistler made the print 'The balcony, Amsterdam'  in 1889, when he spent two months in the Netherlands. In fact, the artist visited this country several times. He found the rivers and canals inspiring and was especially enthralled by Amsterdam. In a series of prints he reordered his favourite parts of the city: the picturesque canals of the slum areas with their dilapidated houses and rows of washing lines. Whistler depicted the city form the water. He sailed around on a boat and recorded what he saw from his low perspective: the water, the quayside and the basements of the canal-side houses. Inspired by Rembrandt's etchings, Whistler breathed new life into the art form. He experimented with a range of etchings. Whistler's Amsterdam etchings influenced several other artists, including the Dutch artists Witsen and Breitner (who recorded his impressions of the city in photo's and paintings) and the Czech artist T.F.Šimon (who visited the Whistler exhibition in London in 1905). Obviously is the influence of Whistler in Šimon 's artwork 'Old houses of Amsterdam'.

The painter and etcher James McNeill Whistler (1834-1903), born as James Abbot Whistler,  visited the Netherlands on a number of occasions between 1863 and 1903. Whistler was an American by birth but lived in Paris and London. He visited Amsterdam, Dordrecht and various places on the island of Walcheren, and made prints of many scenic spots he discovered by boat. One of the first artist to work from a low perspective, he was not primarily interested in famous buildings but rather the hidden corners of the old, dilapidated city centre.
