"Jacques Dubourg, qui a été mon marchand après la mort de Nicolas de Staël - il ne voulait pas s'occuper de plus d'un peintre à la fois - aimait réellement la peinture. Sa collection personnelle était la plus belle que j'aie jamais connue chez un amateur. Et ce n'était pas grâce à l'argent."
"Jacques Dubourg became my dealer after the Nicolas de Staël's death - he did not care for more than one painter at a time. He really loved the painting. His personnal collection was the most beautiful private one I ever saw. And money has never been the question here."
Jean Paul Riopelle
