René Magritte (1898–1967) René Magritte was born in 1898 in Lessines, near Tournai, in the French-speaking part of Belgium. He grew up in Châtelet, near Charleroi. A student at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Brussels from 1916 to 1918, he met the brothers Victor and Pierre Bourgeois there, as well as the painter Pierre-Louis Flouquet. In 1919, Magritte contributed to the first issue of the magazine Au Volant, published by the Bourgeois brothers. After a year of military service, Magritte worked as a draftsman, mainly for a Brussels wallpaper manufacturer, and as a freelancer, creating posters, advertising materials and exhibition stands. In 1926, he painted his first recognized Surrealist work, The Lost Jockey. That same year, he signed the pamphlets titled The Eiffel Tower Wedding Party and Two Disgraces, along with other Belgian Surrealists. From 1927 to 1930, Magritte lived in Le Perreux-sur-Marne, in the Paris region, where he met Hans Arp, André Breton, Salvador Dalí, Paul Éluard and Joan Miró. His provocative article Words and Images was published in 1929 in the final issue of La Révolution Surréaliste, a year after he completed his painting The Empty Mask.
For almost 50 years, Parastone has successfully created decorative objects, some with timeless classical beauty and others more in keeping with current trends. The collection of museum pieces presented under the name Mouseion is an important part of its range. In addition to faithful reproductions of major works of art, the Mouseion series also includes three-dimensional interpretations of paintings and drawings by many artists, from Hieronymus Bosch to Salvador Dalí.
