Lena Borjesson, Maison Watteau, Paris, c1925 (Thora Dardel)




Born in Stockholm, Helena [Lena] Börjeson moved to Paris in 1916, where she opened the art gallery, Maison Watteau, which quickly gained a reputation as a place of gathering and festivity, not only for the Scandinavian community, but for the entire Paris art scene.  Borjesson  ran Maison Watteau from 1918 to 1935, returned to Stockholm and founded a school of sculpture in 1940.  (Autobiography, Mitt livs lapptäcka, 1957)
