Jacques Hérold, original engraving with embossing from 1970, with antique frame
Signed and numbered original engraving with embossing by Jacques Hérold from around 1970.
Jacques Hérold was a French Surrealist painter and sculptor known for his imaginative and dreamlike artworks. Hérold's work often featured fantastical and symbolic imagery, drawing inspiration from dreams, mythology, and the subconscious mind. He experimented with a variety of techniques and materials, including painting, collage, and sculpture, to create visually striking compositions that challenged conventional notions of reality. One of Hérold's notable contributions to Surrealism was his use of automatic drawing, a technique championed by Surrealist artists to tap into the unconscious mind and bypass rational thought. He embraced spontaneity and improvisation in his artistic process, allowing his subconscious to guide his hand and create works of art that were deeply personal.
The piece is framed with a antique frame with beautiful embellishments and with light creme passepartout.
