Quinze Dessins de Durer a Dufy Appartenant aux Collections des Musees Nationaux, issued in 1968, represents a landmark achievement in Parisian printmaking devoted to the faithful translation of historic master drawings into modern pochoir and lithographic form. Conceived and published by Daniel Jacomet in collaboration with Editions Artistiques et Documentaires, the album inaugurated a series dedicated to rendering canonical drawings with exceptional fidelity to line, tone, and original intent. Jacomets atelier was internationally respected for its rigorous technical standards and scholarly approach, bridging museum collections and contemporary print culture through meticulous craftsmanship. By uniting works spanning centuries and artistic traditions, the publication reflects a curatorial vision rooted in preservation, education, and aesthetic continuity. Produced in strictly limited examples, including a small number outside the trade, it exemplifies the highest standards of mid twentieth century Parisian printmaking and remains valued for its role in transmitting the legacy of master draftsmanship to collectors, institutions, and scholars. About the Artist: Edgar Degas (1834–1917) was a French painter, draughtsman, printmaker, and sculptor whose groundbreaking fusion of classical draftsmanship, modern experimentation, and psychological depth helped define the trajectory of Western art, positioning him as one of the most influential figures of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Renowned for his depictions of ballet dancers, racehorses, theater scenes, cafe life, domestic interiors, milliners, laundresses, and women at their toilette, Degas reimagined observational realism through radical compositional innovation, employing extreme cropping, asymmetrical framing, oblique viewpoints, and dramatic lighting that anticipated photographic and cinematic language long before these technologies shaped visual culture. Although associated with Impressionism, he rejected plein air spontaneity in favor of studio based discipline rooted in the linear precision of Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres, the expressive chromaticism of Eugene Delacroix, and the modernity of Edouard Manet, while also drawing inspiration from Japanese ukiyo e prints, classical sculpture, and early photography. His independent artistic philosophy resonated with and helped shape the innovations of Pablo Picasso, Alexander Calder, Alberto Giacometti, Salvador Dali, Joan Miro, Wassily Kandinsky, Marcel Duchamp, and Man Ray, whose explorations of movement, form, abstraction, and conceptualism find antecedents in Degas’s investigations into seriality, temporality, and the fragmented figure. Degas’s pioneering use of pastel, monotype, and wax sculpture fundamentally transformed each medium, influencing artists from Henri Matisse and Francis Bacon to Lucian Freud, Giacomo Manzu, and contemporary practitioners across visual and performing arts. His works are held in nearly every major museum collection worldwide, including the Musee dOrsay, the Louvre, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the National Gallery of Art, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Courtauld Institute, and the National Gallery, London. The highest auction record for Degas was achieved at Sothebys London on February 3, 2015, when Danseuses en Bleu sold for 37,033,000 GBP, confirming his enduring stature as one of the most sought after artists in the Western canon.

Lovis Corinth Tapiau 1858 - 1925 Zandvoort Bathing Establishment, 1920 Lithograph on handmade paper Signed in pencil lower right Marked "Probedruck" (proof print) lower left Image size: 32 x 36.8 cm Frame: 57 x 60 cm Good original condition, under passe-partout (additional photos available upon request) Rare proof print prior to the original edition of 115 copies Published by Fritz Gurlitt, Berlin Catalogue raisonné Schwarz 442 Handcrafted model frame, museum glass Viewing and pickup possible by appointment Authenticity confirmed in writing. Lovis Corinth was born on July 21, 1858, in the town of Tapiau in East Prussia (now Gwardejsk, Russia). While attending high school in Königsberg, he developed an interest in Greek and Roman mythology as well as the Christian stories of the Bible. From 1876, Lovis Corinth attended the art academy in Königsberg, where he studied under Otto Günther, who introduced him to Weimar plein air painting. In 1880, he transferred to the Munich Academy. Works from his Munich period demonstrate his orientation towards the naturalistic painting style of Wilhelm Leibl's circle. In 1883, Lovis Corinth traveled to Italy with his father, and in 1884 he spent three months in Antwerp, where he took painting lessons from Paul Eugène Gorge. From 1884 to 1887, Corinth studied at the Académie Julian in Paris. The artist then traveled to Berlin, where he probably painted his first self-portrait in 1887/88, which was followed by numerous others over the years. From 1891 to 1899, Corinth lived as a freelance painter in Munich, where he belonged to the Secession. After meeting Max Liebermann and Walter Leistikow in the winter of 1898/99, he decided to move to Berlin, where he settled in 1901. Prior to this, his work "Salomé with the Head of John the Baptist...
