''Les Bravades'' is a 68-page picture book by Orson Welles, written and drawn in 1956, and published posthumously in 1996. The title is the publisher's; the original manuscript carries the title ''A portfolio of pictures made for Rebecca Welles by her father, Christmas 1956''. ==Subject== The book was written by Welles when he was staying in Saint-Tropez, France, during ''Les Bravades des Espagnol'', the annual festival celebrating the life of its namesake, Saint Torpes, on 15 June. Welles wrote in the book, 'I've seen lots of "fetes", "fiestas",and festivals, every sort and variety of saints-day high-jinks all over the world. I've been to such events in Sicilly () and China, in southern Spain and Italy and on the Alti-Plano of Bolivia. But never anything to equal the "Bravades" of St. Tropez.' In it, he wrote to his daughter,'I was lucky enough to be in St. Tropez during this holiday; and because I kept thinking of you, and wishing you could be seeing it too, I've prepared this little picture book to give you an idea of what it was like.'〔Orson Welles, ''Les Bravades'' (Workman Publishing, New York, 1996) (Page citations not given, as the book's pages are unnumbered.)〕 The book tells of the procession and customs during this festival, and in particular, it describes the town's uniformed guards, "Les Bravades", who carry a statue of Saint Tropez around the town.
