Description

"In 1953 the Galerie Dina Vierny organised an individual exhibition for Fahr el Nissa Zeid, prefaced by Charles Estienne, under the title Les pierres de la mer.
Impressed by his artistic creations André Breton wrote to him that, "a ray of light emanates from the admirable geodes which are born and expand at your touch, a ray powerful enough to break through any darkness"." E. Bénézit (Dictionnaire critique et documentaire des peintres sculpteurs dessinateurs et graveurs, tome 14, Paris, Gründ, 1999, p. 859).
