4576 Jacques Monory (1924–2018) – Opéra Glaces – Original Lithograph from Derrière Le Miroir No. 217 – Hand-Signed (1976)
This striking double-page lithograph by Jacques Monory was created for the issue No. 217 of Derrière Le Miroir, published by Maeght Éditeur in 1976. The composition, titled Opéra Glaces, is a quintessential example of Monory’s cinematic, hyper-real style, rendered in his signature palette of icy blue tones. Depicting a blindfolded woman in a dramatic pose of fear or ecstasy, the image reflects Monory's fascination with American pop culture, film noir, and emotional alienation. A white cord slashes diagonally through the scene, adding tension and narrative ambiguity.
Jacques Monory was a leading figure of Narrative Figuration in France, a movement that emerged as a European counterpart to Pop Art. Influenced by American cinema, advertising, and photography, Monory developed a distinctive visual language marked by monochrome blue, staged imagery, and existential themes. His works often explore fear, death, and urban detachment, rendered with precision and visual drama.
