The etching "La Minotauromachie". La Californie, Cannes 1961.
At the villa La Californie in Cannes, 1961, the etching "La Minotauromachie" is presented on the seat of a wooden, spindle-back chair. The intricate, mythological scene depicts a powerful Minotaur alongside a reclining figure, a small horse, and a girl holding a source of light. Captured from a high angle, the composition includes the geometric parquet floor and, to the left, the lower part of a standing figure with one leg in dark trousers and the other in a white high-heeled shoe.
