Lot Essay

« Passementeries, galons, cordelettes, ornements empruntés à l’artisanat de la tapisserie étaient joyeusement convoqués pour donner formes à des personnages volontairement enfantins, qui évoquaient par la dérision la chute de l’autorité répressive ».

"Tassels, braids, cords and sundry embellishments borrowed from the tapestry tradition were joyfully enlisted to give shape to wilfully childlike characters that derisively evoked the fall of repressive authority."
