Drawing for the set of postcards that served as a catalog to the exhibition held at Galerij Hugo Godderis in Veurne in 1985. Some time before the 1985 exhibition, Godderis was concerned about the quality of the photographs that would illustrate the large-format works in the catalog. He therefore asked Stéphane Mandelbaum to create ballpoint-pen miniatures of these drawings on blank postcards. The gallery owner printed a few copies and compiled them into a folder that served as a catalog.
Of the fifteen postcards, only six original drawings were recovered by the time of publication of Stéphane Mandelbaum. A monograph by Bruno Jean (Editions Martin de Halleux, Paris, 2022).
