MAX (Francesc Capdevila) — "Un relámpago en la noche serena" (1988) — 1000 Editions
Lot Title / Headline:
Max (Francesc Capdevila) – "Un relámpago en la noche serena" – 1000 Editions (Barcelona, 1988) – Rare Large-Format Mythological Art Print (69x98 cm) – Near Mint / Archive State... Work has two marks on the edge.. Colors 100%
Description:
A commanding, rare large-format original graphic print by legendary Spanish cartoonist, illustrator, and Premio Nacional del Cómic laureate Francesc Capdevila, internationally known under his pseudonym MAX (Barcelona, b. 1956).
Published in 1988 in Barcelona by the avant-garde graphic art house 1000 Editions (Roger de Llúria 128) under the curated portfolio line "La Última Edición":
• Narrative & Iconography:
Titled "Un relámpago en la noche serena" (A Flash of Lightning in the Serene Night), this work showcases Max’s mastery of mythic surrealism and the European Clear Line (Klare Lijn) style. The composition portrays a dynamic mythological landscape populated by dancing satyrs, fauns, and nymphs amidst ancient Hellenic cliffs and columns, accompanied by an owl with a lyre framed in the upper corner. It serves as the mythological counterpiece to his famed print "Atalanta".
• Printing & Paper Quality:
High-precision offset lithography on thick, luxurious fine-art paper. Features sophisticated, muted earth tones—terracotta, sage green, and charcoal tones—with dense black line work.
• Margins & Typography:
Displays full margins with the printed series credit " MAX / «LA ULTIMA EDICION» / 1000 EDITIONS" in the upper border, the artwork title "UN RELÁMPAGO EN LA NOCHE SERENA / MAX" along the side margin, and the official bilingual 1000 Editions / Tysyacha publisher logo centered in the bottom margin.
