Le Char Triomphal de l’Antimoine  is an original modern rare book engraved by  Victor Brauner  ( Piatra Neam? , 1903 - Paris, 1966).  Brauner helped to push forward Surrealist art, by developing its vocabulary and drawing inspiration from new sources including alchemy, mythology, Judaism, Hinduism, and Aztec, and Native American belief systems. This expanded the remit of the group and gave his contemporaries new tools with which to express their ideas. This is particularly relevant in relation to Brauner's presentation of ideas relating to Theosophy, with his pictorial presentations of the etheric body having a direct impact on the work of other Surrealist painters.  Conversely Brauner's art stood apart from that of the other Surrealists in that he developed a private and very personal iconography which related directly to his own existence.  Brauner introduced the young Hedda to his Surrealist images and when she later left Romania during the Second World War to settle in New York, she retained some of her early influences.

The book has been written by  Yvan Goll , born Isaac Lang (Sankt Didel, 1891 - Neuilly-sur-Seine, 1950). He was a French writer, poet, playwright and naturalized German translator.
