In 1939 he fled Franco's regime. After many adventures, he arrived in Paris and, penniless, went to see Picasso who supported him and found him a studio. He became friends with Henri Laurens. Lobo then turned to a simplification of forms in the tradition of Brâncusi, Arp and Moore. His work has been awarded numerous prizes and public commissions. His work is represented in the greatest museums of modern art. This statuette was produced around 1967-1968 in bronze in eight copies and four artist's proofs by the Parisian founder Susse.
