The text, set in characters Jaugeon of body 16, was printed on the presses of L'imprimerie Nationale, Daniel Gibelin being director, and Georges Arnoult inspector of typography. The plates were lithographed in fifteen colors under the direction of the artist with the collaboration of Charles Sorlier. The print run of these lithographs, and the V original lithographies of Vlaminck, were shot on the presses of Mourlot Freres in an edition of MM. About the Publication: Vlaminck, published in Monte Carlo in 1958 under the direction of Andre Sauret, in collaboration with Mourlot Freres and Charles Sorlier, stands among the most vibrant tributes to the Fauvist movement and to Vlaminck’s legacy as one of its founding figures. Conceived in the golden age of postwar French art publishing, this album exemplifies the technical mastery and editorial sophistication that defined the collaborations between Sauret and Mourlot. Printed in fifteen colors on grand velin Renage filigrane a la marque de l'editeur, the album reflects the intensity and spontaneity of Vlaminck’s brushwork, capturing the chromatic energy that made his art revolutionary. Each lithograph was produced under the artist’s personal supervision, ensuring fidelity to his color sensibility and dynamic gesture. This publication joins the landmark series of art volumes issued by Editions Andre Sauret, including those devoted to Picasso, Chagall, Matisse, and Renoir, uniting scholarship, craftsmanship, and artistic vision. Vlaminck endures as both a celebration of Fauvist color and a masterwork of twentieth-century lithographic printing. About the Artist: Maurice de Vlaminck (1876–1958) was a revolutionary French painter and writer whose fearless use of color, movement, and emotion helped define Fauvism and shape the course of modern art. A self-taught visionary, Vlaminck co-founded the Fauvist movement alongside Henri Matisse and Andre Derain, introducing a radical style marked by explosive color, expressive brushwork, and a complete break from academic tradition. Deeply influenced by Vincent van Gogh’s impassioned technique and Paul Cezanne’s structural discipline, he fused raw energy with compositional rigor to create landscapes and still lifes that vibrate with emotional power. His early works—painted in the “Cradle of Fauvism” at Chatou—ignited the Parisian avant-garde, earning him a reputation as one of the most instinctive and daring artists of his generation. Unlike his contemporaries Pablo Picasso, Joan Miro, Wassily Kandinsky, Salvador Dali, Marcel Duchamp, Alexander Calder, Alberto Giacometti, and Man Ray, who explored abstraction, surrealism, and conceptual experimentation, Vlaminck remained devoted to direct, visceral expression, using paint as a vehicle for pure emotion. His art evolved from the blazing chromatic intensity of Fauvism to a more somber, structured lyricism that bridged the gap between Expressionism and modern realism. Vlaminck’s bold gestural style and instinctive approach influenced generations of artists, from Jean Dubuffet, Nicolas de Stael, and Karel Appel to Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning, and Anselm Kiefer, all of whom drew inspiration from his authenticity and defiance of convention. His landscapes and village scenes—rendered with thick impasto, turbulent skies, and luminous contrasts—capture the enduring vitality of rural France and the tension between chaos and serenity. Vlaminck’s work is represented in major museums worldwide, including the Centre Pompidou, Musee d’Orsay, Metropolitan Museum of Art, and Tate, where it continues to resonate for its emotional immediacy and masterful handling of color and form. Standing alongside innovators such as Picasso, Calder, Giacometti, Dali, Miro, Kandinsky, Duchamp, and Man Ray, Vlaminck remains one of the defining forces of 20th-century modernism. The highest auction record for Maurice de Vlaminck was achieved by Paysage de banlieue (circa 1905), which sold for $22,482,500 USD at Christie’s, New York, on May 8, 2011, reaffirming his legacy as one of the most influential and collectible painters in modern art history.
