About the work: Victor Vasarely’s perfectionism imposes an absolute quality standard that only, at that time, Basel print presses could meet. Thus, between 1971 and 1978, Editions du Griffon, Neuchâtel in Switzerland, were entrusted by Victor Vasarely with the production, distribution, and dissemination of 19 albums and 12 screenprints gathering the best of his works. This unique print from a portfolio was conceived and overseen by Victor Vasarely himself, and with the same attention to quality, Editions du Griffon gave exceptional care to these 1970s print series, identifiable by the copyright on the back of the impressions.
