Partick Caulfield displayed twenty-two brightly coloured screenprints which were made from a book of poems by French poet, Jules Laforge, not illustrations to the text but complementary images, with the melancholy atmosphere of Caulfield's interiors finding a direct counterpart in Laforgues's poetry.

Oh Helen, I roam the room
Ah! this life is so everyday
Watch me eat, without appetite, a la carte
All the benches are wet, the woods are so rusty
Crying to the walls: My God! My God! will she relent
I'll Take my Life Monotonous
All These Confessions
Oh, if one of them, some fine evening, would try
Thus she would come, escaped, half-dead to my door
I've only the friendship of Hotel rooms
You'll be sick if you spend all your time indoors
And I am Alone in the House
My Life Inspires so many desires
We wanted to watch the silence
She Fled along the avenue
And, with my eyes bolted toward the unconcious
She'll have forgotten her scarf
Making circles on park lagoons
Curtains drawn back from balconies of shores
Ah! storms clouds rushed from the channel coasts
Along a twilighted sky
