This mind-bending work invites the viewer to enter another realm, leaving behind the realistic and entering the fantastic. A recurring motif in Magritte's works, we witness a certain paradox or contrast between space and time, as the foreground conveys a night scene and the background appears illuminated in a daytime glow. |

| Descripción Histórica: | |
| Combining elements of the forest, desert, and mountains as well as day and night,
urban and natural, Magritte creates a truly astounding work. A large autumn
tree, its leaves a deep burgundy, rests in the middle of a desert environment
with mountains in the background. The lower portion of the image appears as
though captured during the daytime, yet the upper half, enveloped in midnight
blue, appears as though at night. Perhaps the most curious element of this unusual
work is the tree itself, which appears to have doors that reveal another world.
A quaint house, its lights aglow, dwells within the tree as a large egg floats
above it.
Created after the 1959 original oil on canvas La voix du sang (The Voice of Blood) by René Magritte (1898-1967), this original color lithograph was published and printed by Philippe Moreno, Paris in 2003. This work signed 'Magritte' in facsimile in graphite color in the lower right margin and signed in pencil in the lower left margin by the representative of ADAGP representing the Magritte Succession, Mr. Charly Herscovici. Numbered from the edition of 300 in pencil in the lower left margin (from the total edition of 360, 300 examples numbered 1-300, 45 artist's proofs numbered 1-45, and 15 copies reserved for the Succession Magritte), this work is stamped with the ADAGP blindstamp in the lower left margin and the Succession Magritte blindstamp in the lower right margin. On the back of this work is an extensive block of printed text stating the title, provenance, tirage, and details of the original oil on canvas.

Rene Magritte biografía
René Magritte was a Belgian surrealist artist whose witty and thought-provoking images challenged observers’ preconditioned perceptions of reality. Magritte's work frequently displays a juxtaposition of ordinary objects in an unusual context, giving new meanings to familiar things.
Magritte grew up in a simple and somewhat tragic household. His father was a modest tailor. His mother, who was mentally unsound, committed suicide in the year 1912. Magritte started drawing at a young age, and his first paintings, produced c. 1915, were Impressionistic in style.
Magritte first worked as a draughtsman in a wallpaper factory and, in the year 1922, fell in love with and married Georgette Berger. In 1926, Magritte signed a contract with Galerie La Centaure in Brussels, making it possible for him to paint full-time. During this time, inspired by his friend André Breton, he became involved with the Surrealist group.
During the German occupation of Belgium in World War II, he stayed in Brussels. He continued to paint, gaining increased recognition. His work was exhibited in the United States in New York multiple times, including 2 retrospective exhibitions at the Museum of Modern Art and the Metropolitan Museum of Art. In 1967, Magritte died of pancreatic cancer, his imagery having greatly influenced pop, minimalist, and conceptual art.
