circa 1960s felt-tip pen on paper 28. 6 x 40.5 cm (11 1/4 x 16 in.) PROVENANCE This work comes from the collection of Anne Davis Gillet, who along with her two brothers, John and Philip Davis, inherited them from their mother, the late Marie-Therese Lamoitier Davis. Mrs. Davis and her husband, Allen Clayton Davis, a career member of the US Foreign Service, (and later, U.S. Ambassador, retired) spent two years in the Soviet Union (1966-68). During that time, Mr. Davis was consult and First Secretary of the American Embassy in Moscow, where he became personally acquainted with many of the dissident artists and acquired almost all of these works directly from them personally. When the Davis family was reassigned to Ouagadougou, Upper Volta in late 1968, they brought these works on paper with them out of the Soviet Union, traveling by train.
