Artist, French, born 1921

The image depicts irregular block-like shapes arranged vertically with rounded edges and varying sizes. The design resembles a stack of stones or puzzle pieces fitting together, yet incomplete. The textured background and etched outlines enhance the feeling of depth and a tactile, layered surface.
