Señor Antonio Bravo retired from his company and went into a depression. Then he found in sculpture something that fascinates and entertains him. He brings this retablo to Saint Charbel thanking him for such a unique favor.

The pig Luis is making sculptures. Take care of him, Saint John.

I thank the Virgin of Mercy for inviting famous modern art collectors to my studio. They took all my sculpture to a gallery in Hermosillo, although they still haven’t paid me a dime.

Leon, May 1963
