Beautiful colour print by Theo Tobiasse (1927 - 2012), entitled "A light on St Mark's Square
Did you know? Colour lithography is a superimposition of coloured areas. The artist uses a separate stone for each colour. After having marked out the areas of colour on tracing paper, he transfers them to a stone by marking them out.

When the drawing is completed, each stone is inked with the appropriate colour and printed in turn on the same sheet of paper. The order of printing must be carefully chosen. Accurate registration is necessary. In most cases, this is achieved by pinholes and small rectangles drawn in.

Period: 20th century
Dimensions with frame : Height : 73cm x Length : 88cm x Depth : 2cm
Proof justified : 124 /175

Throughout his work, Théo Tobiasse's favourite themes recur like incantations. The woman, mother or lover, omnipotent mistress, carrier and receptacle of all desires.
Travel, exile, witness cities: Paris, New York, Venice, Jerusalem; circuses, musicians and acrobats, mythological and biblical subjects.

These main themes are declined by as many different techniques, used alone or in association.
He expresses his feelings in two or three dimensions, from the lightest collage to the monumental bronze or concrete sculpture, from the delicacy of a glaze thrown on a sheet of paper, to the vigorous full paste of a canvas saturated with colours, right up to his palette, which has become a mountain, a sort of fantastic landscape whose secrets only the artist knows.

In all, more than 150 works in all techniques illustrate the immense creativity and singularity of an artist who crossed the 20th century, preserving in his heart the lights of hope in the darkest hours of the century's history.
