The 1937 versionOn the Threshold of Liberty is a painting by the Belgian surrealist René Magritte.It depicts a large room surrounded by windows.Each window reveals a different scene:a sky,fire,wood,a forest,the front of building,an ornamental pattern,a female torso and a strange metallic texture featuring Magritte’s trademark spherical bells.Inside the room is a cannon.
This image was originally painted in 1929.A second version was painted in 1937 depicting a larger area of the room.Both paintings are oil on canvas.The 1929 version measures 45 x 51 3/4 inches and is on display at the Museum Boymans-van Beuningen in Rotterdam.The 1937 version measures 93 x 73 inches and is on display at the Art Institute of Chicago.
In 1983 the American trumpeter / synthesist Mark Isham composed a piece of music titled after this painting.
