Listing Information

Welcome art enthusiasts, collectors, and admirers to this prestigious auction celebrating Helen Lafrance's extraordinary life and talent.

 

We are honored to present the curated selection of Lafrance's masterpieces, each a testament to her boundless creativity and unwavering passion for storytelling.

 

Her artwork transports us to a simpler time, from bustling town squares to her landscapes, where joy and hardship intertwine in the fabric of daily existence.

 

Get ready to journey through the captivating world of America's most revered folk artist. With each stroke of her brush, Lafrance breathes life into scenes of rural Kentucky. Born in 1919, Helen Lafrance's legacy extends far beyond the canvas.

 

Her paintings serve as a window into the soul of southern culture, embodying the resilience, warmth, and spirit of community that defines a region.

During her life, she was featured on many national media outlets and an award-winning documentary was created about her life and art. Lafrance died in her sleep at the age of 101 in Mayfield, Ky.

 

Her remaining pieces of artwork are gathered in this collection for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to purchase these canvas-painted originals at Absolute Auction,
