Labormetal France, 1941 folded sheet steel, leather 23½ w x 22½ d x 33½ h in (60 x 57 x 85 cm)
A practitioner of the Avant Garde, Prou was influenced by disparate forces.
There is an industrial and severe thrust to this design, but the chair retains plush leather seat elements; pioneering French design of this era embraced both the machine and humanity.
