This work is registered in the Archive of the Karel Appel Foundation.

Willem Nagel was a versatile man. He was not only a well-known criminologist of the University of Leiden but he also published poetry and short stories under the pseudonym of J. B. Charles. In the early fifties he often stayed in Paris. It is very likely that Simon Vinkenoog introduced him to the Dutch artists living in Rue Santeuil, it must have been here that Willem Nagel met Karel Appel.

(For more information about this period of the Dutch artists in Paris, please refer to: Diederik Stevens, Hoogtij langs de Seine, Amsterdam 2012).
