L'Empire des Lumieres (Empire of the Lights) - Version 1 - Canvas Prints
599 Rs
The most celebrated Belgian artist of the twentieth century, Rene Magritte has achieved great popular acclaim for his idiosyncratic approach to Surrealism. His imagery has influenced pop, minimalist and conceptual art.
The illustrative quality of Magritte's pictures often results in a powerful paradox: images that are witty and beautiful in their clarity and simplicity, but which also provoke unsettling thoughts. They seem to declare that they hide no mystery, and yet they are also marvellously strange.

About L'Empire des Lumieres (Empire of the Lights) Version 1
“L'Empire des Lumieres (Empire of the Lights)” is a series of three oil on canvas paintings by the surrealist Rene Magritte that exemplifies the sort of simple paradox that characterizes Magrite's most successful works. They depict the paradoxical image of a night-time street, lit only by a single street light, beneath a daytime sky. Although both elements of night and day are calming and lovely considered on their own, their juxtaposition is eerie and unnerving. The paintings inspired a scene in the 1973 horror film The Exorcist, which was used on the film's posters and home video releases, in which the character Father Merrin stands in front of the MacNeil family's house.About the Canvas Prints
