Derrière le Miroir is a French art magazine created in 1946 and published until 1982. [1] Art galleries, auction houses and booksellers often refer to this art magazine simply as D.L.M. [2] or DLM. [3] Aimé Maeght is the founder, editor and publisher.
In October 1945, the French art dealer Aimé Maeght opened his art gallery at 13 Rue de Téhéran in Paris. The opening of the gallery coincides with the end of World War II and the return of a number of exiled artists back to France. The magazine was created in October 1946 (n°1) and published without interruption until 1982 (n°253). Its original articles and illustrations (mainly original color lithographs by the gallery artists) were famous at the time. The magazine covered only the artists exhibited by Maeght gallery either through personal or group exhibitions. Among them are: [4] Henri-Georges Adam, Pierre Alechinsky, Bacon, Jean Bazaine, Georges Braque, Pol Bury, Alexander Calder, Marc Chagall, Roger Chastel, Eduardo Chillida, Alberto Giacometti, Vassily Kandinsky, Ellsworth Kelly, Fernand Léger, Lindner, Henri Matisse, Joan Miró, Jacques Monory, Pablo Palazuelo, Paul Rebeyrolle, Jean-Paul Riopelle, Saul Steinberg, Pierre Tal-Coat, Antoni Tàpies, Raoul Ubac, Bram van Velde.
Among the authors publishing essays and poems are (in alphabetical order): [5] Guillaume Apollinaire, Marcel Arland, André Balthazar , Yves Bonnefoy, André du Bouchet, André Breton, Joan Brossa, Jean Cassou, René Char, Pierre Descargues , Jacques Dupin, Georges Duthuit, Frank Elgar , Claude Esteban, Charles Estienne, André Frénaud, Stanislas Fumet , Jean Grenier, Marcel Jouhandeau, Jacques Kober , Michel Leiris, Georges Limbour, Henri Maldiney , Jean Paulhan, Gaëtan Picon, Francis Ponge, Jacques Prévert, Raymond Queneau, Pierre Reverdy, Michel Seuphor, Jean Tardieu, Lionello Venturi, Pierre Volboudt, Christian Zervos.
Following the death of Aimé Maeght in September 1981, the Derrière le Miroir n°250 was designed as a tribute to the work of Aimé Maeght and his wife Marguerite (who had died before him in 1977). This special 112-pages issue was named "Hommage à Aimé et Marguerite Maeght" and was intended to be the last one. As it summarised all contents of the previous issues, it was finalised only in August 1982. In the meantime, n° 251 to 253 (the very last number) were published respectively in February, May and June 1982.
Although the issue numbers go from n°1 to n°253, only 200 issues were published. From the 200 issues, 157 were single issues, 33 are double-issue (n°11–12 Bram et Geer van Velde, n°14–15 Joan Miró,...) and 10 triple issues (n°36-37-38 Sur quatre murs, n°57-58-59 Miró,...)

From the 200 issues, 98 were also published in a deluxe edition (in French: "éditions de tête") on heavy paper such as chiffon de la Dore, chiffon de Mandeure, vélin d'Arches, vélin de Lana ou vélin de Rives. The majority of the deluxe editions were signed by the artist on the justification page. The deluxe editions are normally limited to 150 numbered copies (and a few hors commerce), excepting for the following issues:
