"The stencil was originally made for the addition of those details to the reproduction of L.H.O.O.Q. in The Box in a Valise" Bonk p. 241. The final one "Au 'depens des mots'" is one of an edition of 200 printed in gold with black accents on the title-page. Inscribed "a ma petite CecileEluard de tout coeur Georges Hugnet".

Un des 6 premiers exemplaires sur vélin gris n° vi. . En mai 1968 à l'écart des événements qui secouent la France René Char fait une crise cardiaque : de cette « expérience » il tire les poèmes du Chien de coeur qu'il publie un an plus tard évoquant le soir qui faillit l'emporter dans le texte liminaire qui ouvre le recueil : « Dans la nuit du 3 au 4 mai 1968 la foudre que j'avais si souvent regardée avec envie dans le ciel éclata dans ma tête m'offrant sur un fond de ténèbres propres à moi le visage aérien de l'éclair emprunté à l'orage le plus matériel qui fut. Je crus que la mort venait mais une mort où comblé par une compréhension sans exemple j'aurais encore un pas à faire avant de m'endormir d'être rendu éparpillé à l'univers pour toujours. Le chien de coeur n'avait pas geint. » Tous les poèmes furent composés entre juin et août 1968 à l'exception d'« Outrages » composé par bribes entre 1944 et 1967 ; ils dénoncent les distorsions de la société moderne et l'écart grandissant entre l'homme et la nature. Pour l'illustrer il fait appel à Joan Miró qui lui compose un frontispice. Une centaine de lithographies originales sont imprimées toutes signées pour accompagner les exemplaires du tirage de tête : 95 5 sur vélin d'Arches et six exemplaires sur vélin gris. Le tirage comprend également des exemplaires hors commerce sur vergé chiffon rose et sur vélin vert mais qui ne possèdent pas la lithographie sauf le premier des rose dans laquelle elle a été ajoutée. 790 exemplaires sur offset Roberstsau seront également imprimés pour lesquels le frontispice de Miró est reproduit au trait.

Written by Miro in blue fountain pen in French translated in part: “November 3 ‘51 Dear friend I was afraid that you would have difficulties getting hold of my canvasses because you must understand that for the past year my output has been extremely limited. I absolutely had to exhibit the ‘Tronc d’arbre’ Tree Trunk which I consider to be a very important piece; apart from that Andre Breton has to repair it so as to conserve it better. Would you be so kind as to ask the press to send me as quickly as they can some “papier a report†for the lithography which I will engrave immediately. I live in the country and it is hard for me to get hold of the necessary material. After so many years I can’t find a text for ‘le Piege’ the Trap. These texts. My very best wishes Miroâ€. Fine condition. Spanish painter sculptor and ceramist Joan Miro 1893 - 1983 was one of the best known artists of the Surrealism movement which began in the early 1920s. One of its leaders was the French writer poet and anti-fascist Andre Breton to whom Miro refers in his letter. unknown

28433Paris Maeght Éd. Pierre à Feu n° 139-140 juin-juillet 1963. 1 vol. 280 x 380 mm de 28 p. En feuilles sous couverture illustrée en couleurs. . L’un des plus importants numéros de Derrière le miroir consacrés à Miró. 6 lithographies originales en couleurs dont 4 en double page 380 x 560 mm et 1 en 3 volets 380 x 830 mm ainsi que 3 reproductions en noir. Précieux exemplaire de René Char avec un envoi signé au recto de la couverture : « Pour René Char fraternellement Miró ». . Le lien entre Miró et Char trouve son origine dans l'entremise de Christian et Yvonne Zervos au sortir de la guerre. Leur première collaboration se fera pour l'édition de Fête des arbres et du chasseur en 1948 et la lithographie qui l'ouvre. Plusieurs PAB et GLM suivront jusqu'au point d'orgue de 1964 et l'édition chez Maeght du Flux de l'aimant avec dix-sept pointes-sèches. L'année précédente Aimé Maeght aura donné pour Derrière le miroir cette admirable livraison double d'été avec la célèbre lithographie en triple page placée en son centre. La chaleureuse et fraternelle dédicace de Miró à Char n'est pas une posture mais une sincère envolée d'un artiste vers le poète français avec lequel il aura le plus collaboré et marque un sincère témoignage de l'artiste vers le poète avec lequel il aura le plus collaboré. Plouvier souligne dans le Dictionnaire Char combien « l'irradiation de la vie inexprimable posée par Char au principe de sa création a trouvé en Miró l'équivalent de son espace ». Au même titre que Picasso Brauner Giacometti de Staël ou Braque Miró dans l'oeuvre de René Char est promu au titre quasi générique d' « allié substantiel ». Exceptionnelle et rare provenance.
