‎Henry van de Velde (1863?1957) is considered one of the pioneers of modern architecture: he is world-famous for his beautiful buildings, furniture, utensils and typographical creations. Van de Velde, however, is much less well-known as a painter and draughtsman. Nevertheless, he had a lot of talent, especially as a draughtsman: his drawings bear witness to great originality and sincerity. Ten years after his training at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp from 1880 to 1883, Van de Velde exchanged painting for the applied arts and architecture, fields in which he would build a brilliant career. His enormous output in the architectural field ensures that there is little interest in his painting work ? that attention only comes much later. Most of Van de Velde's pencil drawings and pastels were made in Wechelderzande ? a small village in the Kempen ?, in Kalmthout and in Knokke-Heist. He also drew landscapes in Weimar and South Tyrol. Despite the large number of exhibitions devoted to Henry van de Velde, few paid sufficient attention to his paintings and drawings. It was only after his death in 1957 that interest in his creations as a painter emerged. This English-language catalogue of his works ? with a trilingual introduction by Xavier Tricot, author of the catalogues of James Ensor's paintings and of Fernand Khnopff's and L on Spilliaert's prints ? outlines Henry van de Velde's fascinating career as a painter and gifted draughtsman on the basis of some 60 paintings and 230 drawings. Compiled by Ronny Van de Velde, with an introduction by Xavier Tricot.‎

‎ Henry Clemens van de Velde, de Belgische kunstenaar - eerst schilder, dan architect en ontwerper - werd op 3 april 1863 in Antwerpen geboren. Al voor de Europese eenmaking werkte hij in vijf verschillende landen, was hij erg bereisd ondanks de twee wereldoorlogen en onderhield hij een bevlogen persoonlijke carri re. Aan het begin van de twintigste eeuw speelde hij een beslissende rol op vlak van architectuur en sierkunsten, voornamelijk in Duitsland. Henry van de Velde vatte een studie schilderkunst aan in 1880. Hij volgde lessen bij Charles Verlat aan de Kunstacademie in Antwerpen en bij mile Auguste Carlolus-Duran in Parijs. Als aanhanger van de neo-impressionistische stijl werd hij in 1889 lid van de kunstenaarsgroep 'De Twintig' in Brussel. Vanaf 1892 liet hij de schilderkunst achter zich en richtte zich op decoratie en architectuur. Zijn eigen huis, Bloemenwerf in Ukkel, is ge nspireerd door de Arts and Crafts, een hervormingsgezinde kunstbeweging op gebied van architectuur, decoratieve kunsten, schilderkunst en beeldhouwkunst, ontstaan in Engeland in de jaren 1860 en ontwikkeld in de jaren 1880-1910, aan het einde van het Victoriaanse tijdperk. Van de Velde kan gezien worden als grondlegger van de modern style, de Angelsaksische tegenhanger van de Frans-Belgische art nouveau. Henry Clemens van de Velde, l'artiste belge - d'abord peintre, puis architecte et designer - est n le 3 avril 1863 Anvers. Avant m me l'unification europ enne, il a travaill dans cinq pays diff rents, a beaucoup voyag malgr les deux guerres mondiales et a maintenu une carri re personnelle passionn e. Au d but du XXe si cle, il joue un r le d cisif dans le domaine de l'architecture et des arts d coratifs, notamment en Allemagne. Henry van de Velde a commenc tudier la peinture en 1880. Il a pris des cours avec Charles Verlat l'Acad mie des Beaux-Arts d'Anvers et avec mile Auguste Carlolus-Duran Paris. Partisan du style n o-impressionniste, il devient en 1889 membre du groupe d'artistes 'De Twenty' Bruxelles. A partir de 1892, il d laisse la peinture pour se consacrer la d coration et l'architecture. Sa propre maison, Bloemenwerf Uccle, s'inspire des Arts and Crafts, mouvement artistique r formiste en architecture, arts d coratifs, peinture et sculpture, n en Angleterre dans les ann es 1860 et d velopp dans les ann es 1880-1910, la fin du poque victorienne. Van de Velde peut tre consid r comme le fondateur du style moderne, pendant anglo-saxon de l'Art nouveau franco-belge.‎

‎Two holograph letters of Henry van de Velde and an original portrait photograph of him by van Uffelen.‎

‎14. Original photograph portrait of Henry van de Velde, signed in pencil by the photographer, size 22,5 x 16,5 cm, added are two holograph letters by Henry van de Velde addressed to the photographer and dated Oct. 20th (19)43 and Nov. 22nd (19)43. Letters of 2 pp, written on paper with the printed footer of '' la nouvelle maison'', 1 avenue albert, tervueren. From the letters we can deduce that the the portrait was taken on Tuesday 12th October and that 5 different poses were taken, of which van de Velde preferred the third. (We can't be sure that our portrait is the third, but the fact that the letters remained with this photograph makes this very likely). The architect , being just over 80 years old , sits in a three-quater pose with his hands folded in his lap. His left arm shows prominently a large black lozenge stiched to his jacket, mourning attire for his wife Maria Sèthe, who died the previous year. In the two letters the architect thanks the photographer and states that he is very pleased with it, he also writes about his publications of which he sends one to the photographer. Alfons van Uffelen (1895 - 1983) started as picturalist, follower of e.g. Misonne, he became professor at the School of Photography of the Gevaert Company (later Agfa-Gevaert). A large part of his studio was sold in auction in Paris Drouot May 25th year 2000. As far as we could verify this photograph was not included in the sale.‎
