Monte Carlo, André Sauret, 1963.

Braque’s entire lithographic oeuvre is presented and catalogued by date by Fernand Mourlot. Besides the three original lithographs, front and back cardboard dustjacket, frontispiece, and title page, this book contains all of his lithographic output, 146 in total, from 1921 to 1962 in chronological order. Famous for his Cubist collaborations with Picasso and unfortunately often eclipsed by him, Braque continued in this style with a freer application of fragmentation and an intensification of colour creating some wonderful prints along the way.

Printed at Mourlot Frères, this lovely copy of LITHOGRAPHE is in fine condition with only some very slight wear showing on the slipcase.
