A rare and sought-after catalog detailing Pablo Picasso’s famous Suite Vollard etchings, this 1956 volume stands as a historical artifact of art publishing. Authored by art critic Hans Bolliger and published by Niggli in Teufen, Switzerland, the book presents the 100 mythic etchings Picasso created between 1930 and 1937 at the behest of dealer Ambroise Vollard. Text in French (with some English summaries) guides the reader through the suite’s thematic groups – from scenes of the sculptor’s studio and the Minotaur mythos to the trio of Vollard portraits – offering scholarly insight into each category. The folio-sized pages (29 × 23 cm) allow for generous reproductions of the prints in rich black and white. This edition itself has become scarce, valued for its period-specific printing and design. Picasso. Suite Vollard exudes a calm, museum-catalog tone, making it both a collector’s prize and a contemplative journey into one of Picasso’s most significant graphic series.                                                                                                                                                                                                        Creator: Pablo Picasso (artist); Hans Bolliger (author/editor)
