René Magritte is a Belgian painter (1898-1967 AD), from the province of Hainaut ¹⁾. He played a very important role in the surrealist movement of the first half of the 20th Century AD and he may have been influenced by Desombres ²⁾. Some of his paintings are very suggestive of processes connected with Passage to the Obscure World.
