Description from the seller

Each work in this series is unique, due to the manual intervention of Robert Combas directly on the photograph glued at the center of the composition.

Technique: Aquatint, collage, drawing, embossing
Support: Rives 500g paper
Edition: 52/100
Signature: Signed by hand
Paper dimensions: 70 x 90 cm
Frame dimensions: 82 x 102 cm
Year: 1995
Framing: American-style black wooden frame with a floating subject

Condition: Excellent condition

Authentication: Work sold with certificate of authenticity.

In this energetic and abundant work, Robert Combas revisits the biblical episode of Noah’s drunkenness with his own pictorial language: a profusion of lines, raw theatricality, a taut irony. Between sacred and profane, myth and excess, he distorts the ancestral narrative into a free, saturated, intensely living aesthetic. A strong example of the narrative vitality of figuration libre.
