The Wall 3 years, 6 months agoI am in regular contacts with Mr Lefranc who has been the head of “Marketing” for LB in the 60’s and the 70’s, meeting very famous artists (Picasso, Soulages, Dubuffet, Buren,….), developing partnerships with major art schools and also developing Lefranc at contest…He is a memory of the past of the brand, and we often share on some historical facts or souvenirs…
I have been visiting him in his Paris appartment last week for a coffee, after he told me he had been affected by a stroke at mid year and was slowly recovering (he is 93 years old). He was also curious to know how the business was going on in these current unpredictable and challenging times. He wishes us all good luck to handle it!
It was the occasion to discuss on an anecdote concerning Soulages (very famous French artist, master of the “absolute black”) who recently passed away and with whom he had a very interesting technical discussion. Soulages was in fact getting a black from mixing Mars Orange to Prussian Blue (LB oils colours), and Mr Lefranc took the risk to recommend him to be very careful with Prussian Blue usage as this pigment can be too powerful and unstable for the preservation of the original shade.
A quick but lovely moment with a very respectful man of our company history…

They look great, where is your costume Stuart?…

They look incredible fully in costume + the whole backdrop just makes the scene! I’m trying to see if you’re hiding in the bushes Stuart… dressed up as a pumpkin or a bush perhaps? : D …

Wow I love this picture! Like a movie scene 🙂 …
-
Don’t be too hard on Stuart… we all believe it is a better picture without him in it 😉
Well done to whomever was in charge of facepainting and costumes though!… -
Facepainting was my daughter! Costumes were Amazon……

Enjoy Ros, hope the disturbance brings smiles for you. And you know sometimes eating the spare chocolates that are left at the end of the night can also be fun 🙂…
