About the Item
This exquisite lithograph after Andre Derain (1880–1954), titled Buste de femme (Bust of a Woman), originates from the 1972 edition published by Editions A. C. Mazo et Cie., Paris, in collaboration with Leon Amiel, editeurs, New York, and printed by Mourlot Freres, Paris, April 5, 1972. This refined composition captures Derain’s mastery of structure, and emotional restraint. Buste de femme reflects his lifelong fascination with the human figure and classical balance, rendered through the expressive yet disciplined language that defined his post-Fauvist style. The lithograph reveals both his bold modernist vision and his reverence for the timeless beauty of form.
Executed as a lithograph on velin d’Arches paper, this work measures 12.81 x 9.81 inches (32.54 x 24.92 cm). Unsigned and unnumbered as issued. The edition exemplifies the exceptional craftsmanship of the Mourlot Freres atelier, renowned for its collaboration with leading modern artists of the 20th century.

Notes:
Excerpted from the album (translated from French), This album is the album of friendship, and I want to thank all the artists who wanted to participate. Some lithographs presented here, and whose authors have left us for too long, were made at my request for an album "Adieu a la rue de Chabrol" that I intended to publish ten years ago. So it was at this time that I was able to get the lithos of Braque, Cocteau, Derain, Giacometti and Villon. Mrs. Duthuit-Matisse and her brothers authorized me to print the composition of Henri Matisse, an unused original lithograph of the album by Teriade "La Religieuse portugaise". I am happy to have brought together so many works by contemporary artists, it is a great honor for me and I am infinitely grateful to them. Finished printing in Paris on April 5, 1972, this album was printed on velin d’Arches, in DCCC numbered examples. In addition, a number of copies were printed for artists, friends and collaborators of this album. The original lithographs were printed by Mourlot, and the typography is from Fequet and Baudier. Alain A.C. Mazo, Paris, and Leon Amiel, New York, publishers.
About the Publication:
Souvenirs et Portraits d'Artistes (Memories and Portraits of Artists), published in 1972 by Editions A. C. Mazo et Cie., Paris, and Leon Amiel, New York, stands as one of the most distinguished collaborative albums of the postwar era. Bringing together original lithographs by some of the foremost artists of the 20th century, the portfolio celebrates artistic friendship, collaboration, and the enduring spirit of creative dialogue. Buste de femme (Bust of a Woman) after Andre Derain embodies this spirit, merging classical form with modern sensibility in a composition that honors both balance and innovation. Printed at the renowned Atelier Mourlot, the work reflects the technical and artistic brilliance that defined mid-century French printmaking.
About the Artist:
Andre Derain (1880–1954) was a French painter, printmaker, sculptor, and one of the founding fathers of Fauvism whose radical use of pure color and simplified form redefined modern art in the early 20th century. Born in Chatou, near Paris, Derain initially studied engineering before turning to painting, where his collaboration with Henri Matisse and Maurice de Vlaminck ignited a revolution in color and expression. His early landscapes of Collioure and London burst with vibrancy and emotional energy, marking a decisive break from Impressionism and establishing him as a leading innovator of the avant-garde. Drawing inspiration from Paul Cezanne’s structure, Paul Gauguin’s color harmonies, and the optical theories of Georges Seurat, Derain developed a style that balanced intensity and order, bridging Fauvism and the emerging currents of Cubism. Throughout his career, he moved among the great creative minds of modernism, including Alexander Calder, Alberto Giacometti, Salvador Dali, Joan Miro, Wassily Kandinsky, Marcel Duchamp, and Man Ray, sharing with them a commitment to experimentation and form. Derain’s later work evolved toward classical composition and sculptural clarity, influencing generations of artists who sought to reconcile tradition with modern innovation—from early abstractionists to postwar colorists and Neo-Expressionists. Today, his paintings remain cornerstones of museum and private collections worldwide for their brilliance, historical significance, and enduring beauty. The artist’s highest auction record was achieved by Arbres a Collioure (1905), which sold for £16,281,250 (approximately $24 million) at Sotheby’s, London, on June 22, 2010.
