"La Fée Electricité" is a monumental mural by the French artist Raoul Dufy, originally created for the 1937 Paris International Exposition. This vast work, spanning an impressive 60 meters in width, celebrates the history and advancements in electricity. The mural features over 110 figures from the history of electricity, blending technical achievement with artistic expression in Dufy's distinctive, vibrant and airy style.
Under Dufy's direction, Charles Sorlier, a renowned lithographer, created a series of ten lithographs based on "La Fée Electricité." These lithographs were intended to capture the essence and grandeur of the original mural in a more accessible form. Published in an edition of 385 numbered sets, these lithographs allowed a broader audience to appreciate Dufy's artistic celebration of electrical power, making a significant piece of art history available to collectors and art enthusiasts.
