"An informed theorist of past civilizations, Jean de Maisonseul drew his inspiration from ancient signs representative of a universal language which, until the Middle Ages, translated dreams and myths common to all mankind. He was committed, like his era, to this return to the primitive arts which, since the beginning of our century, have strongly influenced the plastic arts."
