This portfolio belongs to the exceptional cycle of the  Phenomena (Les Phénomènes) realized beetween 1958 and 1962. In these importants works, Dubuffet applied procedures such as pulverisation, irrigations and emulsion of liquids on lithographic stone, aiming to achieve visual analogies with phenomena relatin to nature and the earth.

The result is apparently abstract but at the same time realistic; a poetic classification of impercetible events.

Good conditions except for some light foxings.
