Printemps à mille cœurs is an artwork realized by the French artist Jean Messagier. Etching on paper, hand-signed on the lower right corner "Messagier", titled Printemps à mille coeurs, numbered on the left margin ex. 148/300. Good conditions except some foxing. Jean Messagier (1920 – 1999) was a French painter, sculptor, printmaker and poet. He had his first solo exhibition in Paris at Galerie Arc-en-Ciel in 1947. from 1945 to 1949 he worked under the influence of Pablo Picasso, André Masson, Paul Klee and François Desnoyer. In 1952, his work was exhibited at the Galerie de Babylone, at the exhibition ‘La Nouvelle École de Paris’ (The New School of Paris). The following year, he broke away from his expressionistic form of Post-Cubism. He himself had never accepted any labels and refused the distinction between abstraction and figuration, but is often associated with Lyrical Abstraction and Art Informel. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
