This compilation, known as the \u003ci\u003eSuite Vollard,\u003c\/i\u003e was created for Ambroise Vollard (1866(?)-1939), the great French art dealer and publisher of early 20th century modern art.

An incredibly talented man, he tried his hand at many different artistic styles throughout his life, including realism, classicism and surrealism; however he is most remembered for being a co-pioneer of cubism with French artist Georges Braque. Several specific \"periods\" into which his work is classified include his Blue Period, during which time he preferred to draw mothers and children in bluish and greenish hues, and his Rose Period, which featured more lively subjects such as acrobats and harlequins. He is considered to be one of the greatest and most influential 20th century artists, and is especially remembered for his portrayal of the bombing of Guernica during the Spanish Civil War in his 1937 piece, \u003ci\u003e\"Guernica.\"\u003c\/i\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eXAA4C56 zz3269\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Period Paper","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":13046873604,"sku":"126197_XAA4_053","price":43.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1021\/8371\/products\/XAA4_053.jpg?v=1571707446"},{"product_id":"1953-lithograph-jo-anne-schneider-art-harris-block-real-estate-new-york-41st-st-157439-aefa1-011","title":"1953 Lithograph Jo Anne Schneider Art Harris Block Real Estate New York AEFA1","description":"This is an original 1953 monochrome lithograph by Jo Anne Schneider which humorously features a harlequin dangling marionette versions of New York real estate in order to promote the Harris Block Company.

While Kubin lacked significant formal art training, his childhood and personal experiences proved to be far more inspirational, and soon he became a revered artist in Germany. At the tender age of ten, Kubin bared witness to his motherÕs death and his fatherÕs overwhelming grief. A year after his motherÕs death, Kubin's father married his widowÕs sister. However, she died not long after due to childbirth complications, which sent KubinÕs father into a deeper canyon of depression and anger. Consequently, his father often took out his rage on Kubin, beating him and prohibiting him from his presence. Later, his father sent him to live with a photography mentor, where Kubin served as an apprentice. Unfortunately, this apprenticeship did not survive long as Kubin began drinking heavily and chasing women who never returned his affections.  Slipping into a deep depression himself, Kubin studied an anatomical chart, marked a point on his right temple and took a cheap and rusty gun out to his motherÕs grave to commit suicide.  He prayed for guidance, but eventually pulled the trigger. The gun did not fire, and Kubin did not have the heart to try again. Seeking solace, he returned to his childhood home, but was promptly sent back to his mentor, which he referred to as an uncle. However, after previously performing so poorly as an apprentice, Kubin was rejected by his ÒuncleÓ and banished from his home, rendering him completely alone and homeless. Kubin then decided to join the Austrian Army, but was discharged after suffering a debilitating illness, which included loss of consciousness and severe and violent cramp attacks. Spending three months recovering in the military hospital, Kubin witnessed the sick, the dying, and the suicides. He tried to make himself useful during his medical stay by recording patientsÕ case histories, but was eventually discharged from the army when he recovered from his illness.  Sometime later, Kubin enrolled at the Munich Art Academy, but failed to achieve much until a peer stumbled across his morbid sketches and encouraged him to exhibit his works. Consequently, Kubin did so with great success, and soon his art was being displayed in various venues, including the Cassirer Gallery in Berlin, the Garvens Gallery in Hanover, the Rudolfinum in Prague, and many more. In 1903, at the age of 25, Kubin finally fell in love and became engaged to a woman named Emmy Bayer, who later developed an illness while visiting Kubin in Munich, and tragically died ten days later.  Some time later, after mourning the loss of his fiancŽ, Kubin met a widow named Hedwig Grundler, who he eventually married. Unfortunately, the comfort he found in this love dried up most of his artistic ambitions and visions, and an apathetic Kubin became settled into the quaint country life. Years later, Kubin was afflicted with an intestinal disorder. He abandoned his rural life with his wife and traveled to Bosnia and Dalmatia to cope with the strain and stress of the troubling illness. Shortly after his return, KubinÕs father passed away. Then, his wife contracted an illness, which forced her into a hospital. Alone again, Kubin lost complete artistic desire. In an effort to relieve his recurrent depression, he traveled with a friend to Italy, where he was inspired by the landÕs beauty. Soon, Kubin began to write and illustrate his own novels, which proved very successful. Quite notably, he also illustrated for Edgar Allen Poe and Kafka. Then, in 1945, upon the close of World War II, Kubin, while working on another novel in his home, was bombarded by flying shell fragments, which spared his life, but significantly damaged his home.  A few years later, Kubin was, once again, struck by heartache when his wife eventually died after enduring her long-standing illness.  Nearly ten years later, Kubin passed away at the old age of 82. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeywords specific to this image: Modern Art, Contemporary Art, Equine, Equestrian, Stunts, Stuntwoman \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eXDG2C69 zz10000\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Period Paper","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":33598872209,"sku":"181030_XDG2_121","price":44.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1021\/8371\/products\/XDG2_121_35ddbd31-45f4-451f-a063-a24057c2a4f2.jpg?v=1571711271"},{"product_id":"1928-rotogravure-portrait-ken-maynard-stuntman-actor-rodeo-rider-cowboy-circus-194220-mpc1-082","title":"1928 Rotogravure Portrait Ken Maynard Stuntman Actor Rodeo Rider Cowboy MPC1","description":"This is an original 1928 monochrome rotogravure of Ken Maynard who was an American motion picture stuntman and actor.

Several specific \"periods\" into which his work is classified include his Blue Period, during which time he preferred to draw mothers and children in bluish and greenish hues, and his Rose Period, which featured more lively subjects such as acrobats and harlequins. He is considered to be one of the greatest and most influential 20th century artists, and is especially remembered for his portrayal of the bombing of Guernica during the Spanish Civil War in his 1937 piece, \u003ci\u003e\"Guernica.\"\u003c\/i\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eXAG9C65 zz3269\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Period Paper","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":33634651409,"sku":"144344_XAG9_034","price":43.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1021\/8371\/products\/XAG9_034_5a9fba7b-1f76-47bf-9d14-3cdc631b54f2.jpg?v=1571712578"},{"product_id":"1938-rotogravure-inder-pause-indians-break-honore-daumier-circus-drum-instrument-199774-xdi8-012","title":"1938 Rotogravure Inder Pause Indians Break Honore Daumier Circus Drum XDI8","description":"This is an original 1938 monochrome rotogravure entitled \u003ci\u003eInder Pause\u003c\/i\u003e roughly translated to mean \"Indians Break\" by Honoré Daumier. \u003cp\u003eCONDITION\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis 73+ year old Item is rated Very Fine +.

He received his formal art education at the Ecole des Beaux Arts under Symbolist painter Gustave Moreau. Rouault also studied art at the Louvre in Paris. He was most recognized for his unique expressionism stylistics. Rouault was also a draughtsman and artist, who specialized in printmaking, lithography, etchings, woodcuts and book illustrations. His works primarily centered on prostitution, tragicomic clowns and religious subjects. Rouault's art has been exhibited at the Pierre Matisse Gallery in New York City, as well as at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. In 1902, he became the cofounder of the Salon d'Automne, and in 1903, Rouault served as the first curator of the Musée Moreau in Paris.

He worked with the Crommelynck brothers, master printers in Paris near Picasso's private studio in Cannes. This collaboration led to the remarkable output of intaglio prints created at the end of his life. \u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eWhile combining different cultures, icons and periods in this series, Picasso created a unifying theme throughout: that of the narrator and observer rather than participant. The works are a panorama of compelling imagery including: circus figures, musketeers, cabelleros, musicians, and painters with their models -- many with an erotic nature. PicassoÕs command of the challenging techniques of etching, engraving, dry-point and aquatint are forcefully revealed in the 347 works, along with the highly personal and facile drawing ability he possessed in his late years.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eSince its creation by Picasso more than 40 years ago, the 347 Series has garnered interest by collectors, museums, dealers and historians. PicassoÕs devotion and burst of energy into etching and engraving in the last years of his life has been equaled by no other artist.

He worked with the Crommelynck brothers, master printers in Paris near Picasso's private studio in Cannes. This collaboration led to the remarkable output of intaglio prints created at the end of his life. \u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eWhile combining different cultures, icons and periods in this series, Picasso created a unifying theme throughout: that of the narrator and observer rather than participant. The works are a panorama of compelling imagery including: circus figures, musketeers, cabelleros, musicians, and painters with their models -- many with an erotic nature. PicassoÕs command of the challenging techniques of etching, engraving, dry-point and aquatint are forcefully revealed in the 347 works, along with the highly personal and facile drawing ability he possessed in his late years.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eSince its creation by Picasso more than 40 years ago, the 347 Series has garnered interest by collectors, museums, dealers and historians. PicassoÕs devotion and burst of energy into etching and engraving in the last years of his life has been equaled by no other artist. In the last decade, the works have experienced extraordinary attention amongst collectors resulting in significant increases in the prices for the original works at international auctions. Consider that Rembrandt made approximately 300 etchings in his lifetime. Picasso made 347 in seven months. It is doubtful that any artist will ever live again who will match this achievement. \u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eThe complete 347 Series is part of the permanent collection of the following museums and institutions:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\n     \u003cli\u003ePicasso Museum in Barcelona, Spain\u003c\/li\u003e\n     \u003cli\u003eNational Library of Paris, France\u003c\/li\u003e\n     \u003cli\u003ePicasso Museum in Paris, France\u003c\/li\u003e\n     \u003cli\u003eArt Institute of Chicago\u003c\/li\u003e\n     \u003cli\u003ePeter Ludwig de Colonia Museum\u003c\/li\u003e\n     \u003cli\u003eArt Museum of Israel, Jerusalem\u003c\/li\u003e\n     \u003cli\u003eThe Gottfried Keller Stiftung of Switzerland\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor those who could not afford the originals from Picasso, we are pleased to offer these original heliogravures from the 1970 first edition portfolio.

In 1947 these pieces were gathered into a limited edition artist's portfolio by TŽriade, the publisher of the famous French art magazine \u003ci\u003eVerve\u003c\/i\u003e and given the title \u003ci\u003eJazz.\u003c\/i\u003e Using some of his familiar imagery and themes, in particular the circus, the vibrant colors and forms of these stunning lithographs seem to virtually leap off the page.   \n \n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis piece was illustrated by Matisse, Henri.

Matisse originally began his career in law; however, bedridden after an appendectomy, he began to take up painting, using art supplies his mother gave him. Around a year later, Matisse relocated to France where he received his formal art education at the Academie Julian. During the 1890s, he also attended the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris, where he studied under Gustave Moreau. Matisse was most recognized for his human figure, still life and nude subjects, as well as his impressionism style and work in sculptures, monotypes, aquatints, lithography, etchings, drypoints and woodcuts. In his later years, Matisse experimented with cut-out collages. He is said to have been influenced by Neo-Impressionist painters Cezanne, Van Gogh and Gauguin, as well as pointillist artists Signac and Henri Edmond Cross. In 1925, Matisse was awarded the French Legion of Honor. During the 1930s, he was commissioned to illustrate books, as well as design murals for the Barnes Foundation of Philadelphia and the Chapel of Saint-Marie du Rosaire in Vence (near Cannes, France). In 1950, Matisse was awarded the grand prize at the Venice Biennale. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLTX7C85 zz5579\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Period Paper","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":7647320014908,"sku":"240361_LTX7_001","price":74.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1021\/8371\/products\/LTX7_001.jpg?v=1571713859"},{"product_id":"1908-article-circus-acrobatics-boyston-india-marinelli-contortionists-blondin-111375-tsm1-349","title":"1908 Article Circus Acrobatics Boyston India Marinelli Contortionists TSM1","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eMen Serpents\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is an original 1908 3-page article (two pages, one being double-sided) The India-Rubber Mephisto, who specialize as contortionists and acrobatics.
