Reference: - L'œuvre gravé et les livres illustrés par Jean Dubuffet: Catalogue Raisonné, Volume 1. Front Cover. Sophie Webel, Jean Dubuffet. Baudoin-Lebon, 1991, p. 154 , n.511 - Silkeborg n. 308 This portfolio belongs to the exceptional cycle of the Phenomena (Les Phénomènes) realized between 1958 and 1962. In these important works, Dubuffet applied procedures such as pulverisation, irrigations and emulsion of liquids on a lithographic stone, aiming to achieve visual analogies with phenomena relating to nature and the earth. The result is apparently abstract but at the same time realistic; a poetic classification of imperceptible events. Good conditions. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
