Monografie van de Latijns-Amerikaanse beeldend kunstenaar (1932).

In the search for the ""mystery"" that envelops things and organisms, Reni Magritte (1898-1967) created pictures which, taking everyday reality as their starting point, followed a unique, otherworldly logic. He invented an inimitable pictorial language that he used to question our usual comprehension of reality and art. In this book, Jacques Meuris traces Magritte's artistic development from its beginnings until the end of his life, revealing the originality of this great Belgian Surrealist.

The creator of Art Nouveau's greatest beauties Alfons Mucha’s is an art of seduction. His graceful women, delicate colors, and decorative style add up to an unashamed act of temptation. Mucha (1860-1939), whose work is indissolubly linked with the Art Nouveau style, was one of the most fascinating artistic personalities of the turn of the 20th century. He was not only a painter and graphic artist, but also took an interest in sculpture, jewelry, interior decorating, and utilitarian art. His particular talents, however, lay in decorative graphics, which was the basis of his fame and remains so today. This book traces all aspects of his career via biographical and descriptive texts and a wide selection of images.
