Raymond Peynet is the most popular illustrator in France in the 20th century, with several museums in France and Japan. He depicts the love between lovers , and small animals, trees and flowers are always drawn around them. Peynet's works have a message of love and peace, and empathy with small animals and plants leads to environmental protection. In Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park, a sculpture of lovers by Peynet is placed as a symbol of world peace. This print was produced in France as a series in 1985. It is of course new. It is sold out in France, and only second-hand copies are available on the market. For information on Peynet's museums, please see the following website.

[Work description]
The lovers are sitting on giant pigeons, reading a poem and shedding tears. The poem they are reading is "Autumn" by Paul Verlaine, a 19th century symbolist poet. The poem goes something like this: "Hearing the sound of a violin on an autumn day makes me feel sad, and when the sound of church bells is added, I feel even more sentimental. I am reminded of happy days gone by and I am overcome with tears." The trees in the background are shedding their last leaves of the year. Angels who have landed on the trees are also playing violins, giving melody to Verlaine's delicate poem. The sad autumn, Verlaine's poem, and the sound of the violin, the fading season and memories tremble in the heart. Even the pigeons on the lovers' bench are holding back tears. The owl, who is not very sentimental, just looks on with wide open eyes.
Gallery Adeka Yasuhiro Takeda
Around 1992, Galerie Adesaka purchased 5,000 copies from Alexandre Tocart, the nephew of Raymond Peynet's publisher Muret (who collaborated with Raymond Peynet to produce prints by Raymond Peynet that Raymond Peynet personally signed), and the representative of the French distributor of those prints (Editions des Cercles).
Mr. and Mrs. Takeda of the Galerie Adeka and Mr. and Mrs. Tokar of Editions des Cercles, the publisher of Raymond Peynet's original lithograph prints, in Nice ⇓
Yasuhiro Takeda, the owner of Galerie Adeka, graduated from the University of Montpellier in the south of France, and Alexandre Tokar was also from Montpellier and was his junior at the university. Galerie Adeka began to focus on selling Raymond Peynet prints, starting with their friendship with Alexandre Tokar.
Galerie Adeka ran the Gallery Vingt de France at Karuizawa Prince Hotel for 20 years from 1995 to 2015, and is therefore on friendly terms with the Peynet Museum, also located in Karuizawa. To promote exchanges between the Karuizawa Peynet Museum and the Raymond Peynet and Humorous Artists Museum in Antibes, southern France, Galerie Adeka was sent by the Karuizawa Peynet Museum to continue to exchange with the Peynet Museum in Antibes and Raymond Peynet's daughter, Annie Peynet.

In the 21st century, where environmental destruction and war continue, Raymond Peynet's paintings of love and peace seem to be a message to the modern age. By coming into contact with Raymond Peynet's world surrounded by peace, love and gentle nature, I hope that you will develop peace and love in your heart and a heart that cherishes nature, animals and plants, our fellow members of the earth.
