Jean Jacques SEMPÉ (1932–2022) - Lot 154
Jean Jacques SEMPÉ (1932–2022) Consumer Information. Pages 42–43. 1968 Two Indian ink drawings on paper: one drawing and one sketch. One bears the text: “…and, at 8:05—even though Father never tolerated dinner starting late—André—Uncle André now—arrived. Father did not so much as glance at him. It was only after a while that Anne, —Aunt Anne—and I realized that he had deliberately left out one of his cufflinks, and that by sticking a small piece of shiny paper over two or three of them, it gave him, when he smiled, a look that was utterly hilarious… I told you this story to show you that we, too, got up to all sorts of mischief, and we’re perfectly capable of understanding it if you wish.” (Slight creases, stain) 47.5x63 cm Note: -The main drawing is quite similar to the one reproduced in the album *L'Information Consommation* on pages 42–43. It is highly likely that this version was published in the magazine *L’Express* or in *Paris Match*. -We thank the SEMPE Archives for confirming the authenticity of these works. A certificate may be provided to the buyer at their expense. With the kind cooperation of Sempé’s heirs: Inga Sempé, his daughter, and the children of his late son Jean-Nicolas Sempé
