Editions & Impressions

This distinguished collection of works on paper offers a compelling panorama of twentieth century printmaking, uniting creations by artists whose innovations redefined the visual language of modern art. Featuring lithographs, etchings, linocuts, heliogravures, and monotypes by Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, Marc Chagall, Fernand Leger, Salvador Dali, Joan Miro, Edgar Degas, and Alexander Calder, among others, the collection embodies the rich diversity of expression that characterized the modernist and postwar periods. Produced by renowned ateliers and publishers such as Mourlot, Maeght, and Griffon Neuchatel, these works capture both the technical precision and creative spontaneity that made the print medium central to twentieth century artistic practice. Picasso?s spirited line, Matisse?s rhythmic clarity, and Chagall?s luminous color coexist with the surreal imagination of Dali and the bold abstraction of Calder, forming a dialogue between tradition and experimentation. The inclusion of rare monotypes by Degas and limited editions by Warhol and Peter Max further underscores the breadth of the collection?s vision. Executed on fine papers including Arches, Rives, and Japon, and drawn from important portfolios such as Derriere le Miroir, Peintres d?Aujourd?hui, and La Divine Comedie, these prints stand as enduring testaments to the mastery of their creators. Each work reflects the artist?s hand and the printer?s craft in harmony, revealing the print as a medium of both intimacy and invention. Presented in excellent condition, the collection as a whole offers a refined journey through the defining aesthetics of modern art, where material, line, and imagination converge to shape the visual legacy of the twentieth century.
