Right section: original monograph front cover paired with an open page featuring a burnt match pack composition with carbon trails, signed and dedicated "Per Sironi Gaetano / Bernard Aubertin".

Medium: burnt matches, carbon deposit, marker and applied original photo on paper

Single catalog dimensions: 31 × 23 cm each

Framed dimensions: approx. 38 × 108 × 4 cm

Provenance: Galleria d'Arte Rosenberg, Milan (2010)

Condition: very good condition, intact burns and fresh paper

Professional shipping by a certified Pro / Top Seller: custom-built protective packaging with high-density foam padding to preserve both the glass and the fragile match heads, fully insured with international tracking.
