Toffoli devoted himself extensively to tapestry with the Robert Four manufacture, from 1976, producing hundreds of cartoons. We find the post-cubist transparencies characteristic of the painter, as well as his subjects. Indeed, Toffoli's tapestry does not differ from his painting: a painter-traveler, he illustrates in our cartoon scenes observed during stays in South America.
