Paul-Élie Gernez in Honfleur, Calvados (14)

Paul-Élie Gernez (1888-1948) was born in Valenciennes and died in Honfleur, and it was in this house, next to Satie's, that he lived and worked as a painter, watercolourist, engraver and illustrator from 1919 until his death. Cubism was an early influence, but he then settled to landscapes, still life and marine life, most of his inspiration coming from Honfleur.
