Gorgeous 1975 serigraph after Jean Michel Folon's beautiful "l'arbre" or "forest". Produced in 1975 by Editions Marquet for Gallery Marquet in Paris, France. This print is in excellent condition, see pictures for details. It comes unframed. Jean-Michel Folon’s (Belgium 1934 - 2005) enigmatic landscapes and mysterious humanoid forms helped revolutionize conceptual approaches to illustration in the late 20th century. While Folon has worked across multiple disciplines—including painting, textile, sculpture, stained glass, and printmaking—he is perhaps best known for his drawings and watercolors depicting landscapes in the vein of Surrealist masters such as Salvador Dalí and René Magritte. These works depicted idyllic forests and prison-like skyscrapers populated by butterfly or bird/human hybrids he called “Everymen.” Folon’s drawings were published in such publications as Esquire, The New Yorker, and Time, among others, and he illustrated a number of well-known books. Folon widely exhibited during his lifetime, including at institutions such as Les Arts Décoratifs, the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Institute of Contemporary Arts in London, and the Musée Picasso.

Antique Chromolithograph of Marine Life with Coral, Fish, and Sea Creatures, ca. 1890 This engaging and finely detailed chromolithograph, titled “Das Leben im Meere” (Life in the Sea), dates to around 1890 and illustrates a vibrant array of marine animals in their underwater habitat. Rendered in striking full color, this educational plate combines artistic beauty with scientific accuracy, representative of late 19th-century natural history imagery used in schools, encyclopedias, and popular science publications. The composition features an impressive diversity of sea creatures and plant life, carefully labeled with corresponding letters. In the foreground, prominent figures include a large green lobster (g. Hummer), a sea turtle (a. Meer­schild­kröte), and a large crab (e. Großer Taschenkrebs), all shown in highly naturalistic detail. Surrounding them are other fascinating marine organisms such as a squid (h. Tintenfisch), starfish (k. Seesterne), shrimp (f. Garneele), sea urchins (i. Seeigel), sea anemones (m. Seeanemonen), jellyfish (l. Schirmquallen), and colorful coral (n. Edelkoralle). Also depicted are a seahorse (d. Seepferdchen), a flatfish or sole (b. Goldbutte), and a herring (c. Hering), among others. Beyond the foreground, the underwater world fades into an atmospheric gradient, with swaying sea plants, drifting jellyfish, and distant ships visible at the water’s surface. The overall composition is both decorative and informative, capturing the sense of wonder and discovery associated with marine biology during the 19th century—a period of growing interest in the natural sciences. Such prints were prized not only for their educational value but also as art objects. Today, this image appeals to collectors of antique scientific illustrations...
