L’Homme du Large (René Magritte)René Magritte This pivotal painting is typical of Magritte in the 1920s: he entered surrealism once and for all during his “dark period”. The scene reflects this darkness and shows everyday items, such as the window, but put in an alarming context. The painting also contains references from the popular culture of the day, particularly the detective novels featuring Fantômas. Year: 1927
