With lithographed signature of the artist in the imprint. - "Seize pages réparties entre ces planches avaient été initialement réservées pour le texte qui n'a pu malheureusement être achevé. Alberto Giacometti gave the publisher Tériade, on two occasions, the notes that he wanted to appear there: first, at the time of leaving the clinic where he underwent a surgical intervention, and then some time before his death. These notes are respectfully published on six pages, the others reserved for the text remain blank. Le titre Paris sans fin is celui que l'artiste souhaitait donner à ce livre".
