Edy-Legrand Visions Du Maroc (French Edition)

Edy Legrand was one of those artists who, by their imagination and then their travels, lead us into a world of dreams and colours. Far removed from all the trends in painting, independent by nature, occasionally closer to his literary friends than to his painter friends, he always endeavoured to express what he loved. Together illustrator, lithographer, animal painter, decorator, after 1933 he became the spokesman for Morocco where he had settled, not far from his friend Majorelle. It was at this time that he was most successful in reconciling lyricism and harmony, intelligence and sensibility. As he himself said, filled with a sense of eternity, having found in this part of the world a representation of everlasting mankind, as if beyond time, ruled by the great laws of the sky and the earth, he would execute illustrations of the Bible, as well as the Book of the Apocalypse with an essay by Henri Bosco.
