Note du spécialiste

Robert and Nicolas Descharnes have confirmed the authenticity of this work.

Lilium auratium fornicans is a preparatory drawing for a drypoint etching on heliogravure of the same title, which is part of a series of fifteen Surrealistic flowers, executed in 1972 (Michler & Löpsinger no. 548).
