This exquisite piece, titled Lever de Soleil by Guillaume Azoulay ( Moroccan-French 1949) , is a limited-edition etching, numbered 26 out of 50 and dated 2016. The etching captures Azoulay’s signature style with its intricate line work, fluidity, and dynamic movement, beautifully portraying the artist's fascination with energy and form.
In this composition, a herd of majestic horses gallops across the frame with a dreamlike, almost mythical quality. The meticulous detail in each line reveals a sense of motion, as though the horses are caught in a continuous dance. Azoulay’s mastery of line art is on full display here, as the lines intertwine to form contours, shading, and texture that bring the horses to life.
The background features a soft, metallic sheen, enhancing the ethereal atmosphere of the piece and providing contrast to the delicate line work of the horses. A radiant, golden sun in the upper left corner adds warmth to the composition, symbolizing dawn as it rises on this serene yet powerful scene.
Hand-signed by Azoulay, this work is custom framed in a contemporary silver-toned frame, adding elegance while drawing focus to the fine details of the etching. Lever de Soleil is a striking example of Azoulay’s skill in capturing movement and vitality through the simplicity and complexity of line, encapsulating both strength and grace within its intricately crafted forms

About the artist :
Guillaume Azoulay is a Moroccan-born artist, renowned for his intricate line work and dynamic compositions. Born in Casablanca, Morocco, in 1949, Azoulay grew up in a creatively rich environment, surrounded by art and culture from an early age. As a self-taught artist, he developed a unique style that combines classical influences with a modern, almost surreal approach to form and movement. His journey as an artist led him across various countries, including Israel and Denmark, before he eventually settled in the United States.
Azoulay’s art is characterized by his signature line technique, where thousands of meticulously placed lines come together to form complex images. His work often focuses on themes of movement and energy, especially with subjects like horses, dancers, and figures in motion. He masterfully captures a sense of fluidity, bringing vitality and a rhythmic quality to his compositions. His precision with lines, combined with his eye for balance and harmony, creates an almost hypnotic effect that draws viewers into his intricate, layered designs.
Throughout his career, Azoulay has received numerous accolades and gained international recognition. His work is included in prestigious collections worldwide, including the permanent collection of the Louvre Museum in Paris, where he holds the distinction of being one of the few contemporary artists featured. His art is also represented in the collections of prominent museums and galleries, reflecting his standing as an acclaimed artist within the fine art community.
In addition to his line art, Azoulay is also known for his work in various media, including lithographs, etchings, and paintings. His limited-edition prints are highly sought after, and his use of color and texture brings an added dimension to his already intricate compositions.
Azoulay’s artistic journey has also been marked by his personal philosophy of discipline and dedication. His work ethic and meticulous attention to detail have allowed him to cultivate a unique style that is immediately recognizable. Over the years, he has earned a dedicated following of collectors and admirers who appreciate his ability to convey movement, depth, and emotion through his signature line work.
Today, Azoulay continues to create, with each piece demonstrating his ongoing commitment to refining and evolving his craft. His legacy as a master of line art endures, with his works celebrated for their elegance, complexity, and the distinctive beauty he brings to the subjects he portrays.
