Frans Piët began his work on Sjors—the Dutch successor to Martin Branner’s Perry Winkle—in 1938. This collection originates from Piët’s private archive. To our delight part of this archive, which was previously considered lost, was rediscovered in a moving box in an attic. The material is offered here in its entirety, across seven lots in this auction. (total 59)
