Yseult Riopelle, Jean Paul Riopelle, Catalogue raisonné des estampes, 2005, reproduced page 194,
catalogue #1968.24EST.LI.AFV

Riopelle only started engraving (lithography and etching) in 1967, nearly 20 years after he began painting. He then remained very faithful to engraving, pursuing it in parallel with painting throughout his career. Poster before the letter of 1968 is a piece produced by Riopelle at the beginning of lithography while he was exploring all the possibilities. This is one of the artist’s most colorful prints. Like his painting, we perceive orange, blue and yellow notes that stand out very brightly as in a stained glass window, with a successful contrast of colors on a very dark background. This work is one of Riopelle’s prints that comes closest to his pictorial practice.
