A striking lithograph by Bernard Buffet, *Carmen* captures the artist's signature style of bold, angular lines and stark, expressive forms rendered in a rich palette of colors. Printed on fine Arches paper with full margins, the work reflects Buffet's mastery of the lithographic medium, bringing dramatic intensity to this iconic subject. The composition embodies the raw emotion and theatrical energy synonymous with the story of Carmen, filtered through Buffet's distinctly modern and unflinching artistic vision.
