Provenance: Manuel Reguera Saumell collection, recognized as one of the great Cuban writers and playwrights of the 20th century. As the set of photographs that accompany this collection testify, during the years that he remained in his native country, Reguera forged a close friendship with the most prominent exponents of Cuban art. It was then that Reguera, supported by the bond that united him with Amelia Peláez, Rene Portocarrero, Carlos Abela and Antonia Eiriz, began his role as a collector, giving birth to what would become his personal collection.
