Florent WELLES (1922-2000) - Lot 218
Florent WELLES (1922-2000) Untitled, 1953 Oil, ink and gouache on cardboard, monogrammed and dated lower right 46 x 134.5 cm Provenance: Jean and Sanky Raine collection. Florent Welles (1922-2000) originally a carpenter-sculptor, virtually none of his works have survived. Louis Paul Boon (close to the Cobra group) reports that he was never satisfied with his work: is this another reason why he decided to destroy it? He would have been very involved in making frames and carpentry for the group, and stood out for his humanist values.
