Item Overview

Description

Johfra (= F.J.G. van den Berg) (1919-1998). (Abstract figures). Two drawings, pen and ink, both 7,3x39,5 cm., both monogrammed "F" in black pen. - Both sl. faded; vertical folds and some staining. = Schetsboek van Johfra (The Hague, 1978), p.(11): "Alles heeft zijn geschiedenis; ook mijn schetsboek. Het verhaal begon in de laatste maanden van de tweede wereldoorlog. Tijdens een bombardement werd ook ons huis getroffen en moesten mijn ouders en ik vluchten. Wij vonden onderdak in een grote, toen buiten bedrijf zijnde drukkerij in de Haagse binnenstad. Daar ik, vanwege de bezetting ondergedoken was, waren de werkplaatsen met de drukpersen en snijmachines de wereld waarin ik dag en nacht vertoefde. In grote manden had ik stapels afval gevonden: lange repen afsnijpapier van vaak zeer goede kwaliteit. In die tijd van schaarste was dat een grote schat voor een schilder en tekenaar. Ik sneed deze soms meer dan een meter lange stroken in handzamer stukken al naar gelang de breedte van de strook. Zo verkreeg ik velletjes van ca 5x7 cm, waarop ik ijverig tekende. Dit kleine formaat begon spoedig mijn tekenstijl te beïnvloeden. Daar het mij dwong me in klein bestek geheel uit te spreken werd mijn techniek steeds fijner. Na aanvankelijk met pen en chinese inkt te hebben gewerkt ging ik al spoedig over tot het potlood, dat tonen en fijnere nuances toeliet en dus veel gevoeliger tekende". AND 4 other drawings of abstract figures by the same (black pen, 7,2x27,3 cm./ 7x32,5 cm. (3x), 3x monogrammed "F", laid down on mounts. Some sm. defects, i.a. 3x w. sharp vertical fold in left margin). - AND a pencil drawing by the same of a female saint (14,8x9,3 cm., "7-Oct '51" and "6" in lower corners, laid down on mount).
