Everyday objects, presented with meticulous realism, but taken out of their everyday context, behave in ways that disturb and unnerve the beholder, and the viewer is shocked into a heights awareness of reality. David Sylvester provides an original and revealing analysis of the dominant themes in Magritte’s work. Volume is from a private estate collection, and is in Very Good condition.
