This charming outdoor work board reminds us that Stéphane Brecq has been living in Indochina for 16 years when he was appointed 5th director of the Gia Dinh School. As early as 1926 he sold his engraved woodcuts and drawings to the magazine Extrême-Asie.
He took part in the Colonial Society of French Artists in 1935, 1936 and 1937 (works on the themes of Angkor Thom, Banteay Kdei, and Annam).
