Note: Two pieces similar to this one were sold in the Sothebys sale , 2nd July 1987, “The remaining contents of the studio of Rene Magritte”. This piece was made after the portrait drawing by Paul Eluard made by Magritte in 1936 “La Magie Blanche”. An illustration from the catalogue is available which shows the piece. It was therefore approved by the artist himself who no doubt was involved in the proofing and making of the piece. Although not in the Kaplan catalogue it is obviously an important part of the printing oeuvre of this artist. An evocative and slightly alarming piece.
