The composition conveys Courbet’s intimate realism and psychological sensitivity, translating the quiet gravity of his draftsmanship into a refined modern printmaking language that preserves the immediacy and physical presence of the original drawing.

It was drawn in LXX numbered examples and L examples, out of the trade. About the Publication: Visages d Enfants. 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: Gustave Courbet (1819–1877) was a French painter and revolutionary realist whose uncompromising vision, political conviction, and rejection of academic idealization positioned him as one of the most transformative figures of nineteenth century art and a decisive catalyst for modernism, fundamentally reshaping painting by insisting that contemporary life, labor, landscape, and physical reality were worthy of monumental artistic treatment. Emerging in mid nineteenth century France alongside peers such as Jean Francois Millet and Honore Daumier, Courbet rejected Romantic fantasy, historical allegory, and classical mythology in favor of direct observation, dense material surfaces, and an unapologetically physical handling of paint, asserting that art must be grounded in lived experience rather than inherited convention. His radical independence, material honesty, and defiance of institutional authority altered the relationship between artist, subject, and viewer, laying the groundwork for avant garde movements that challenged illusion, hierarchy, and narrative convention. Courbet influence resonated powerfully throughout modern art, with artists such as Pablo Picasso, Alexander Calder, Alberto Giacometti, Salvador Dali, Joan Miro, Wassily Kandinsky, Marcel Duchamp, and Man Ray studying his work as a foundational break from academic tradition and a critical step toward Cubism, abstraction, Surrealism, and conceptual practice. His impact extended directly into Impressionism through Edouard Manet and Paul Cezanne and continued into twentieth century movements that valued autonomy, directness, and the physical presence of paint itself. Today Courbet legacy is firmly established in major museum collections worldwide and reflected in sustained market strength, with his highest auction record achieved in May 2015 when La Vague sold for approximately 43.6 million USD at Christies Paris.
