Anna Staritsky Auberg des Fleurs The Flowers Inn Vence: Auberge des Fleurs, c. 1950 108 x 135 mm.

The Flower Inn at Vence on the road to Grasse, was a restaurant for artists and sportsmen. The owner and chef was Jean Lelaurain who had a reputation for his fine culinary art. This reproduction of a quite simple etching by Staritsky was either a gift after a good meal or an ordered work. The card is not dated but is probably made between 1947 and 1952, when Staritsky and Orix lived in Nice not far from Vence. Reference: 2016 Eindhoven VAM, № 7 |
