François CHEVALLIER (born 1942) - Lot 173
François CHEVALLIER (born 1942) Bronze proof, signed FC 06 and numbered EA II/IV Casting stamp BRONZE AZUREEN Le pilote à la moto N.4 (rider and motorcycle are independent) 24cm long, 18cm high Notes : François Chevalier started out with a passion for cars, but is now a man of taste and a lover of beautiful things. He started out on a Jawa 350 cm3 motorcycle, which he swapped for a 1000 cm3 Vincent-HRD, which he later exchanged for ... a Bugatti 57, coach Ventoux, when he wasn't even 18 and didn't even have his motorcycle license yet. Later, he decided to tackle the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1967 with a 1964 Alpine 1000 prototype. Director of the Circuit Paul Ricard from 1970 to 1999, he has since successfully devoted himself to his other passions: drawing, painting and sculpture.
