拍品专文

"It is inexcusable that after five years of war, the hardest war of all, men who have been heroic actors in this sad epic should not have their rightful turn in the sanctuaries. The coming peace must open wide for them doors that have remained closed until now. The ascent of the masses to beautiful works of art, to Beauty will be the sign of a new time." (F. Léger, The Human Body Considered as an Object 1945, cited in Exh. cat., New York, The Museum of Modern Art, Fernand Léger, p. 246).
