Paul Delvaux / Blain|Di Donna

by Paul Delvaux, Blain Di Donna

This monograph analyses the Belgian Surrealist painter's work, focusing on his characteristic depictions of transfixed female figures in incongruous settings. It explores the use of enigmatic motifs such as classical ruins and skeletons within his dreamlike compositions.
