Description
YVES TANGUY 1900-1955
Paris 1900 - 1955 Woodbury (French)
Title: Plate III, from: The Tale of the Pierced Stone | Le Mythe de la Roche Percée, 1931
Technique: Lithograph on wove paper.
Paper size: 25.3 X 21.5 cm. \ 9.9 X 8.5 in.
Additional Information: This lithograph is signed with initials "Y.T." in the stone at the lower left margin.
This impression is from a later book edition.
There was a signed and numbered edition of 100 of this subject executed as an etching in 1931.
The subject is one of three to accompany a book of poetry of the same title, by the celebrated surrealist poet Yvan Goll.
Note: Yves Tanguy is often considered to be the quintessential Surrealist artist and he contributed greatly to the movement, in particular to the representation of dreamlike landscapes. Remarkably the artist was self-taught and the recurring motifs of rocks and landscapes are representative of the reminiscence of childhood experiences. The artist was greatly inspired by Giorgio de Chirico’s work and in turn was an inspiration for Salvador Dalí and Roberto Matta.
Literature: Wittrock, W. (1976) Yves Tanguy: Das Druckgraphische Werk. Düsseldorf: Wolfgang Wittrock Kunsthandel.
Reference: cf. Wittrock 14 C
Condition: Good Condition. Adhesive staining along the left margin with book binding holes. Pale mount staining in the margins.
