In the 1940s, the young Pierre Soulages met the gaze of the standing stones of the Fenaille museum. “When for the first time I saw the engraved stones in the Fenaille museum, it was a shock“. The astonishing series of walnut stains carried out in the years 1947-1949 evokes the same head-on impact, a radicality of construction.
