Le Lion double

Painting

Author

By (artist) Victor Brauner

Description

Another most auspicious sign: born of the flaming colours of the most sumptuous of dawns, an admirable crimson bird allows itself to be tamed by greyish-brown woman whose double profile echoes the lion's head. (Lion du double, 1946).
