UNTITLED (LOBSTER PENIS), SIGNED BY ARTIST.

N.p. (Paris): n.p., n.d.
33 x 25cm (mage size: 13.5 x 10cm), black on white etching on thick cartridge paper. The image is a visual pun of a lobster made up of an ejaculating penis above a vaginal opening. Benoit’s commitment to a sexualised surrealism came from his fascination with the Marquis de Sade. Signed in pencil below the work and marked “E.A.” (Edition artiste – i.e. artist’s proof copy) Fine.
