Herge 1934
Georges ‘Herge’ Remi 1934
Source: Haantje. Note, the original blog is in Dutch and I’m relying on Google Translate for the translation.
Hi,
Being Dutch (and living in Utrecht!), maybe I can offer my help:
Kieckens shoots Georges (in De Haan / Cock-sur-Mer, July 1934)
In the background a well known parasol, on the foreground the naughty right hand of the artist.
A quarter of a century later, Germaine notes: ‘I don’t believe that George is an evil man. But he really can not stand firm/has no backbone (…) and he is stubborn like a child*).’
[note: 'Haantje continues telling about himself:]
*) The latter is a cliché, and of all time. Last night I gave my sculpture that I bought in Venice a prominent place in the living room. S. of course finds it an absurdity (there is only this much she can take from me). But she was away in Utrecht where she moved in close movie circles. At night I woke from her roaring “You’re worse than a child!”.
[note: In Utrecht there is currently the 'Dutch Film Festival' ]

Many thanks for the translation. It makes more sense now.
Haantje style of writing seems a little odd and that makes the Google Translation of his blog somewhat confusing.
