The Sun
Fine Art, The Sun (Le Soleil)
is a color lithograph created by French artist André Masson in 1938. It was published in the second issue of the French avant-garde art magazine Verve. The artwork is a surreal, abstract composition on the theme of celestial bodies.
André Masson was a prominent French painter and printmaker associated with the Surrealist movement. He was known for his "automatic drawing," a spontaneous form of art intended to express the unconscious mind. The Sun was created during his second period with the Surrealists, after he rejoined the group in 1936.
