Beauford's Art: The Tricoire Collection - Part 1

Robert Tricoire has been gracious enough to share information and anecdotes about Beauford's Paris years and he has also allowed me to view his wonderful collection of Delaney paintings.

He commissioned one of them,

purchased others,

and received others as gifts from Beauford.

Robert's brother owns paintings by Beauford as well.

Next week, I'll share an image of one of these works that completely astonished me!
