"Fishermen / Jean Laffitte"
Jean Lafitte, sculptor and painter Born in Péronne (Picardy) in 1932, his father, whom he knew little, was an acrobat clown at Pinder. In 1947 Firmin Bauby welcomed him to the Sant Vicens pottery where he discovered the resources of modelling. He began to design nativity scenes that did not conform to tradition but which testified in a moving way to his temperament and his tastes. In 1949, the revelation of the 17-year-old sculptor: an expiring Christ, carved from a cherry tree trunk, and of which several international magazines reproduce the moving image. In 1950, Jean Lafitte showed a life-size Pietà in walnut wood, soon acquired by the Abbey of Saint-Michel de Cuxa for its abbey house. A patinated terracotta from the same period, Pauvresse à l'écuelle, belongs to Dr. Albert Dauch. This started painting in 1951. Signed and dated 63 lower right. Dimensions: L99.5cm H5Ocm
