Additional Details: This double-page lithograph from Derrière le Miroir no. 173, published in October 1968, is a remarkable example of the magazine's dedication to showcasing contemporary art in an innovative and accessible format. Known by collectors simply as DLM, Derrière le Miroir—literally translated as "behind the mirror"—was a French art magazine that featured limited edition prints of artists' works, often spanning multiple pages. The lithograph features a fold line down the center, characteristic of the magazine's large-format presentation, which allowed for expansive and immersive artwork displays. Derrière le Miroir was published from the late 1930s until the early 1980s, during which it became a significant platform for modern art, featuring contributions from renowned artists such as Alexander Calder, Joan Miró, and Henri Matisse.
