About the Artwork & Rarity:
This striking work is a quintessential example of Hans Bellmer’s intricate graphic production and his profound impact on the International Surrealist movement [Le Coin des Arts]. Famous for his subversively mechanical and anatomical explorations, this engraving beautifully captures Bellmer's masterful, delicate draftsmanship and linear precision.
This specific print belongs to a highly limited commercial edition of only 150 examples worldwide, making it a scarce and highly collectible item for connoisseurs of 20th-century avant-garde, erotica, and surrealist art.
Condition Report:
The engraving is in very good condition with the fine lines of the plate remaining crisp and fully defined. Both the artist's original pencil signature and the edition number (92/150) are perfectly visible, authentic, and clear. Full margins are present, showing the original plate dimensions of 36 x 49 cm.
