HE ONCE SAID “YOUTHFUL IMPRESSIONS, FIXED ONCE AND FOR ALL IN THE MIND, INFLUENCE YOU ALL YOUR LIFE.” DESPITE CLAIMING TO FIND THE FOUNDER OF PSYCHOANALYIS’S IDEAS UNIMPORTANT, DELVAUX’S PAINTINGS ARE OFTEN DESCRIBED AS VISUAL REPRESENTATIONS OF FREUDIAN DREAMS. HERE, AS HE OFTEN DOES, THE IMAGE IS REPLETE WITH NUDES AND EROTIC MOTIFS.
PAUL DELVAUX (1897-1994) HAND-SIGNED OFFSET LITHOGRAPH, “P. Delvaux”, signed on reverse in black ink, on an offset lithograph after his 1943 painting La Dame a la Fleur, 7.5 x 4.75, museum-quality matting and framed in gold to an overall size of 11 x 8, by the Belgian painter noted for his dream-like scenes of women, classical architecture, trains and train stations, and skeletons, often in combination. He is often considered a surrealist, although he only briefly identified with the Surrealist movement. In fine condition, matted and framed, ready for display.
