M. Vlaminck - Le Bœuf - 1944

Exciting numbered edition 808 on bamboo-teak and illustrated with this work focused on the figure of the ox, an animal that is at once familiar, powerful, hardworking and deeply symbolic, which the author uses as a starting point for a reflection blending observation of nature, rural evocation, artistic sensibility and meditation on the relations between man and the animal world.

Vlaminck, known above all as a painter and writer, approaches the ox here not as a simple zoological or agricultural subject, but as a living presence that belongs to the material and affective history of rural societies.

Through the description of this animal, the work reveals an entire universe of countryside, stables, agricultural work, cultivated lands and peasant gestures, in which the ox occupies a crucial place because of its strength and its role in human activities.
