Description: "Le Petit Prince et le volcan" (The Little Prince's Volcano) Color lithograph 40x50 cm (15.7' x 19.7' in) after the watercolor illustrations by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry from his beloved masterpiece "The Little Prince".This lithograph was printed and published in 2009 in our Art-Lithographies workshop in Paris using 100% cotton 300 g/m² BFK Rives paper. It is plate-signed from the edition of 300 and features the dry stamp of the artist’s Estate.Artwork entirely made in France: from the production of the paper in Arches in the Vosges department, to the traditional lithographic printing process, one drawing for each different color, one color per press run.Shipped with a certificate of authenticity, signed by our company, the original printer of those lithographs. --------------------------------------- When Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's The Little Prince was just beginning to take form, he left the project with a friend before leaving New York City to rejoin the war effort. At that point, Saint-Exupéry was carrying around the book in a brown paper bag and the illustrations featured stains and even cigarette burns. Full of life, what makes these drawings really extraordinary is that they at once embody and counter Saint-Exupéry’s most memorable line — “What is essential is invisible to the eye” — by seeking to make visible, even seen, the creative craftsmanship of a man who long after his death continues to move generations with his tender tale about the meaning of life.
