The Treachery of Images

A tribute to Magritte, designed in our studio

In 1929, René Magritte painted a pipe and wrote beneath it "Ceci n’est pas une pipe" (This is not a pipe). The painting, The Treachery of Images, now belongs to the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Its point is disarmingly simple: a painted pipe is only the image of a pipe. Our collection borrows that idea, not his canvases.

Original designs, not copies

We do not sell reproductions of Magritte’s paintings. Our designers created new compositions around the motifs of Belgian surrealism: clouds in a blue sky, birds, suns, silhouettes, lips, apples, and objects that change scale or float in mid-air. Each one is drawn in our studio, with clean lines and flat colours that sit naturally in a contemporary interior.

Where to hang surrealist posters

A single poster above a sofa or a desk is enough to start a conversation. Several designs turn sport into a dream, like a rose on a football pitch or a golf course in the clouds: you will find more in our sports posters. Their calm palettes and generous empty space also pair well with our minimalist posters.

Paper, frames and delivery

Every poster is printed on thick matt paper that avoids glare from nearby windows. Order it unframed, in a black metal frame or in a premium white, natural or black oak frame: you only pay for the frame, the framing itself is free, and your poster arrives ready to hang. It is printed close to you, which shortens delivery times.
