Height: 12 cm - Length: 28 cm - Width: 28 cmProvenance : Lerat Collection. To note : This work is referenced under the n° 1100 in the Lerat archives. [This bowl gathers two researches related to abstraction: The exterior is marked by very strong geometrical forms . This expression has not been developed because probably too revolutionary, we know only one other cup of this type. The interior with this matte black, which will often be used by Jean and Jacqueline Lerat, is animated by a circle of a matte white that we find in one of the major works of Jean kept in the Museum of Fine Arts in Lyon].
