Florent WELLES (1922-2000) - Lot 219
Florent WELLES (1922-2000) Untitled, 1953 Mixed media (collage, charcoal and estompe) on paper, monogrammed and dated lower left 50.5 x 33 cm Provenance: Jean and Sanky Raine collection. Florent Welles (1922-2000) originally a carpenter-sculptor, almost 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.
