When the War ended he worked as a commercial artist, creating designs for advertising, first in Paris, then in Nice, where he moved in 1950.
As soon as he could, and often at night, he painted. In 1960, his work was noticed at an exhibition of young artists in Nice and he won first prize. From then on Tobiasse was finally able to devote himself entirely to painting. It was during this period that this joyful and exuberant painting was created.
There are no works to discover for this record.
