From the piece...
Belgian Surrealist artist Rene Magritte may have carved his place in art history as a master of mind-bending,
advertising-influenced imagery at the intersection of aesthetics and
philosophy, but he also had a little-known early commercial career like
other subsequently famous artists, including Andy Warhol.
Young Magritte made rent by working as a draughtsman at a wallpaper
factory and designing graphic ephemera, among which were some 40 sheet
music covers he produced in the 1920s.
