Arthur CONTE (1920-2013) The Floral Tree, circa 1970 Original ink drawing Signed in ink On paper 24 x 15.5 cm PROVENANCE: This drawing comes from the personal collection of Pierre Lhoste. A radio journalist, Pierre Lhoste (1913-1984) asked the personalities he interviewed to sign an autograph accompanied by a drawing of a tree, thus creating a unique record of his interviews. INFORMATION: Arthur Conte was a French writer, historian, journalist and politician. Author of a vast body of historical and novelistic work, he distinguished himself with his works on contemporary France and the monarchy, often written in a lyrical, accessible style.
