Further details
« Nous voici devant l’envoi de Mérodack-Jeanneau. Dans divers pamphlets, cet artiste s’est plaint récemment d’avoir été pillé. Il exagère peut-être, mais il est vrai qu’il a eu une grande influence sur Van Dongen et d’autres, influence qui s’est peut-être exercée sans que les influencés s’en doutassent mais qui n’en existe pas moins ».
Guillaume Apollinaire à propos du Salon des Indépendants de 1914 (G. Apollinaire, Chroniques d’art, 1902-1918, Paris, 1960, p. 350).
“Here is what Mérodack-Jeanneau sent. In various pamphlets, this artist has recently complained of having been plundered. He may be exaggerating, but it's true that he had a great influence on Van Dongen and others, an influence that may have been exerted without the influenced suspecting it, but which exists nonetheless”.
Guillaume Apollinaire on the Salon des Indépendants in 1914 (G. Apollinaire, Chroniques d'art, 1902-1918, Paris, 1960, p. 350).
