Fourth and last state, this copper engraved in 2013 leads us into a deep night: a long procession passes slowly in front of us, with solemnity. These characters, both those who carry those who are brought, evoke the Greek world, Byzantium, ancient Rome. It is the vision of an ancestral bond, a lost link between gods and men. Between the sky and the earth. Rare edition, for true collectors.
