René Magritte (1898-1967), surrealist artist, used ordinary objects to challenge how viewers perceived reality. His extensive oeuvre was documented in a comprehensive five-volume project, led by distinguished art critic and writer David Sylvester. In the years that followed the publication of the final volume in 1997, numerous works purporting to be by Magritte appeared on the art market. Under the auspices of the Fondation Magritte, a committee was established to verify the authenticity of newly discovered works as well as those previously recorded as whereabouts unknown or listed as appendix items in the original volumes of the René Magritte Catalogue Raisonné.
This book gathers 130 previously unpublished or unknown works, authenticated by the committee between September 2000 and March 2010.
