Additional Details: This is a double-page lithograph published on pages 20 and 21 of Derrière Le Miroir (DLM) No. 171. DLM, a renowned French art magazine, featured limited edition prints of contemporary artists until 1982, often presented as two-page spreads, as seen here with the fold down the center. Like many works by Jean-Paul Riopelle, this piece is untitled. It evokes a sense of the wild, perhaps depicting scattered branches or animal footprints, rendered in earthy tones of black and brown. The composition is layered with a subtle light purple in the background, adding an ethereal quality that contrasts with the rugged marks in the foreground. Riopelle's spontaneous, organic style captures the raw, untamed energy of nature in this striking lithograph. See less
