The Perfect Egg by Mr Strange (Jean-Marie Gitard), a 60 × 60 × 2 cm giclée on stretched canvas, edition 1/5 signed on the back of the chassis, dated 2026, produced in France in a limited surreal nature morte series, with certificate of authenticity.
Description from the seller
This work transforms a banal fried egg into a cosmic meditation: the solar yolk, radiant and domed, floats like a star in a halo of translucent bubbles, while the thick relief of the pictorial material gives the whole a fleshy, tactile presence.
The contrast between the iconic simplicity of the subject and the almost sacred intensity of its staging, where white and yellow are inverted, creates a fascinating tension between everyday triviality and metaphysical contemplation, at the boundary of pop and the sublime.
Mr Strange (Jean-Marie Gitard) is a French artist engaged in surrealism.
A well-established and recognized artist, he is present in many collections in France and abroad.
