Lithograph after René Magritte, Décalcomanie, 2010, 45 × 60 cm, on 100% cotton BFK Rives paper (300 g/m²), edition of 275 numbered copies plus 45 hors commerce, signed in the plate, printed in Paris by Galerie, with certificate of authenticity.
Description from the seller
Lithograph after René Magritte, hand-numbered. Exclusive edition limited to 275 numbered copies, to which are added 45 off-market proofs, marked HC and numbered 1 to 45, of which 15 are reserved for the MAGRITTE Succession. The numbering may differ from that visible in the photograph.
Magritte here uses a visual technique where the subject (the man) and the object (the landscape) interpenetrate. It is not a reflection, but a substitution: the man becomes the landscape. The title refers to the image transfer technique (decalcomanie). Here, Magritte applies this idea at the metaphysical level: he decals the outside world onto the human silhouette. He transforms the body into a window, making the viewer aware that his gaze continually decalcomposes reality.
Size: 45 x 60 cm
The lithograph is signed on the plate by MAGRITTE and bears in the margin the dry stamps of ADAGP, of the MAGRITTE Succession, as well as the epithet of its sole representative, Mr. Charly Herscovici, who is also President of the MAGRITTE Foundation and Chairman of the MAGRITTE Museum in Brussels.
This lithograph was printed in Paris in 2010, on 100% cotton rag paper, BFK Rives, 300 g/m².
Certificate of authenticity provided.
