It seems that I unwittingly discovered a keyboard shortcut to destroy all day's work. If that does indeed exist, I would like to know what I did, in order to not do it again by mistake.
I had been working on a B&W image that I converted to color, created many layers, colored the layers, put effects and transparencies, and, then, by reflex, i pressed something like an "Emacs Chord" (I guess it was Ctrl+x, Ctrl+s), while at the same time did something without knowing on the digital tablet. The image restored to the original B & W state, and closed gimp. When I opened it again, all work was gone and the Undo History was empty.
I do not know if the work can be saved (i seem to not know if there is some backup), but I would like to know exactly what I did or what i pressed.
