(image) Handsigned by the artist in pencil Certificate of authenticity Arches vellum For Soulages, there is no hierarchy between painting, drawing and etching. Lithographie n°8 illustrates his global approach to art, where each technique is a means of exploring matter and light. Here, the power of black gives it all its depth. By superimposing black on red and yellow, the artist accentuates the materiality of the ink. The effect of contrast and transparency evokes an inner radiance, as if the light emanated from the color itself. LCD7806 This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker.
