INFORMATION: Jean-Pascal Lorriaux was a passionate collector who had the idea to publish a collection of lithographs presenting the hands of the great artists of his time. Thus Chagall,
Picasso,
Fautrier (of which he was the assistant and close friend the last years of his life), Foujita, Cocteau, Lurcat or Mathieu would go to his studio to engrave their hand on lithographic stone.
Lorriaux
would not have time to finalize his project and only a few tests - of which this rare lithography - would be realized ..
