Quinze Dessins de Durer a Dufy Appartenant aux Collections des Musees Nationaux, issued in 1968, represents a landmark achievement in Parisian printmaking devoted to the faithful translation of historic master drawings into modern pochoir and lithographic form. Conceived and published by Daniel Jacomet in collaboration with Editions Artistiques et Documentaires, the project inaugurated a series dedicated to rendering canonical drawings with exceptional fidelity to line, tone, and original intent. Jacomets atelier was internationally respected for its rigorous technical standards and scholarly approach, bridging museum collections and contemporary print culture through meticulous craftsmanship. By uniting works spanning centuries and artistic traditions, the publication reflects a curatorial vision rooted in preservation, education, and aesthetic continuity. Produced in strictly limited examples, including a small number outside the trade, it exemplifies the highest standards of mid twentieth century Parisian printmaking and remains valued for its role in transmitting the legacy of master draftsmanship to collectors, institutions, and scholars. About the Artist: Sonia Delaunay (1885–1979) was a Ukrainian born French painter, designer, and avant garde visionary whose revolutionary use of color, geometry, and abstraction transformed twentieth century art and design. Born Sarah Stern in Odessa, she moved to Paris, where she became a leading figure of modernism and a pioneer of Orphism, a lyrical offshoot of Cubism founded with her husband Robert Delaunay that fused structure, rhythm, and pure chromatic energy. Deeply influenced by the innovations of Pablo Picasso, Alexander Calder, Alberto Giacometti, Salvador Dali, Joan Miro, Wassily Kandinsky, Marcel Duchamp, and Man Ray, Delaunay absorbed the experimental spirit of the European avant garde while extending abstraction beyond the canvas into fashion, textiles, interiors, and stage design. Her theory of simultaneity celebrated the dynamic interaction of colors, creating visual rhythms that paralleled music and movement, and her designs for the Ballets Russes and Atelier Simultane introduced geometric modernism into everyday life. Like Picasso, she sought to unify art and existence; like Kandinsky, she viewed color as a spiritual force; and like Duchamp and Man Ray, she embraced modern technology and materials as tools for innovation. Her works from the nineteen thirties through the nineteen sixties captured the rhythm of modern life through radiant compositions of interlocking forms and shifting hues. The first living woman honored with a retrospective at the Louvre in nineteen sixty four, Delaunay remains a cornerstone of modernism, with works held in the Museum of Modern Art, the Tate Modern, and the Centre Pompidou. Her highest auction record was achieved by Rythme couleur (1964), which sold for approximately 4.3 million US dollars at Sothebys Paris on November twenty four, two thousand twenty one, confirming her enduring influence and global stature.
