About the work:
Victor Vasarely's perfectionism imposes on him an absolute quality requirement that only at that time could be satisfied by the prowess of Basel print shops.
Thus, between 1971 and 1978, Les Éditions du Griffon, in Neuchâtel, Switzerland, were entrusted by Victor Vasarely with the realization, distribution, and dissemination of 19 albums and 12 screenprints containing the anthology of his works.
This unique print comes from a special edition entitled "Ondulatories" which was designed and supervised by Victor Vasarely himself and it is with this same concern for quality that the Griffon editions took exceptional care of these series of albums printed in the 70s, identifiable by the copyright on the back of the prints.
