Félix Vallotton, a versatile artist, left his mark on the history of illustration. His sharp eye and prolific talent propelled him to the heart of avant-garde magazines. This book explores this little-known aspect of his work, with over 250 reproductions. Text in French.
Painter, engraver, illustrator, writer and art critic, Félix Vallotton (1865-1925) is known for the impact of his compositions, a combination of his decorative instincts and graphic wit. His revival of the woodcut in the 1890s quickly established him in the art and literary circles of Paris, and his talent as a prolific illustrator, especially for the press, spread his fame throughout Europe and as far afield as the United States. He illustrated bestsellers such as Poil de Carotte , by Jules Renard, and contributed to the most fashionable avant-garde periodicals of the time: including, La Revue Blanche, Le Rire, Le Cri de Paris, L’Assiette au Beurre , and Le Canard Sauvage , in Paris, Jugend and Die Insel , in Munich and Berlin, The Studio , in London, The Century Illustrated Monthly Magazine , in New York, among others.
This book assembles a number of critical essays and a selection of around 250 reproductions to explore this little-known aspect of Vallotton’s work. It is being brought out to coincide with the online publication of Félix Vallotton illustrateur . Catalogue raisonné (volume 32 in the Catalogues raisonnés d'artistes suisses series, created by Fondation Félix Vallotton, Lausanne, and Institut suisse pour l'étude de l’art, Lausanne/Zurich (SIK-ISEA).
