La Page Blanche (The White Page)

This lithograph was printed and published in 2004 in our Art-Lithographies studio in Paris using 100% cotton 300 g/m² BFK Rives paper. Artwork entirely made in France: from the production of the paper in Arches in the Vosges department, to the traditional lithographic printing process, one drawing for each different color, one color per press run.

The lithograph was authorized, supervised and validated by the ADAGP (Society of Authors in the Graphic and Plastic Arts) and by Mr. Charly Herscovici, President of the Magritte Foundation, Chairman of the Magritte Museum and unique representative of the Magritte Succession.

Painted by René Magritte in 1967.

Magritte' very last painting before he died on August 15, 1967. A tribute to Stéphane Mallarmé's obsession with the white page.

René Magritte wrote: "If we were to see leaves behind the moon, it would be extraordinary, life would finally be meaningful".
