Drenched in the Mediterranean Sea and the light of the African continent, Guillaume Corneille (1922-2010) created this striking work, a mishmash of colors and the four elements: earth, sea, air, fire, with a central sun rising outside the abstract composition, giving the impression of overwhelming heat moving with the winds.
Original lithograph from 1958 by the painter-traveler, who was also a founding member of the Cobra group with Asger Jorn, Karel Appel, Constant, Dotremont, Alechinsky and Jacques Doucet.
Signed and dated in pencil by the artist.
Mentioned in Donkersloot's catalog raisonné no. 55, only 12 copies + some artist's proofs were made. The prints are made in four different colors. Each copy was printed differently on Michel Cassé's hand presses, so that it can be said that each copy is almost a unique piece.
