Hand signed and numbered in pencil. Edition of 25. Very good condition. A vivid and theatrically composed print by guy harloff, built around his recurring symbolic vocabulary of ritual objects and watchful emblems. Against a pale, speckled ground, a striking red, totemic figure dominates the scene—punctuated by multiple staring eyes—surrounded by suspended forms, candle flames, mirrors and enigmatic talismans. The bold, hand-drawn typography along the lower margin—“idée de cérémonie… rituel… amour.”—reinforces harloff’s signature fusion of poetic narrative and surreal, metaphysical suggestion. Executed in saturated primary tones with strong graphic contouring, the work exemplifies the artist’s distinctive approach to printmaking, balancing poster-like immediacy with an atmosphere of dream and ceremonial mystery.
