Perfect condition.
This work depicts a dreamlike scene where hybrid figures with distorted faces intersect within a fragmented architectural universe. The treatment of geometric shapes and color planes aligns with a late Cubist aesthetic, while the grotesque figures and strange narrative evoke Belgian Surrealism of the 1960s–70s.
The signature “David,” accompanied by the year '74, remains difficult to attribute precisely. Two letters appear after the name but are illegible, making formal identification of the artist uncertain.
However, the style and period suggest a connection with Belgian artists active in the 1970s, influenced by Magritte and Delvaux, as well as contemporary graphic design. Plausible stylistic comparisons include painters from the Belgian Surrealist circle (such as Leo Dohmen, Jean Ransy), whose compositions combined distorted figuration with surreal narratives.
Although the exact author is unconfirmed, the work clearly belongs to the Belgian cubo-surrealist movement of the 1970s, a period rich in graphic experimentation.
