This page includes eight lithographs completed in 1962. Villon was accorded the honor of Chevalier de la Legion d"Honneur in 1939 and was promoted to Commandeur de la Legion d"Honneur and Commandeur des Arts and Lettres in 1953. He was chosen by Jacqueline Auberty and Charles Peruseaux for the first volume of a series of books on great French painter-engravers. In 1956, Villon was awarded the Grand Prix for painting at the XXVIII Venice Biennale. In 1958, he was awarded the Grand Prize for painting at the Brussels World Fair. In 1961, Galerie Charpentier, Paris, Cent Tableaux de Jacques Villon, gathered works which had been sold world-wide. With this exhibition and its notices, Villon's international reputation was secured. In 1963 he was elected Grand Officer de la Legion d'Honneur. In the years 1959 until his death in 1963, at the age of 87, Villon spent his time divided between his love of painting and his deep love of poetry. During these years he created lithographs and etchings which were included with limited edition books or published as folios. We are fortunate to have in the collection the volumes, the portfolios and many rare proofs of the series of works on paper. Lionello Venturi, professor of art history at the University of Turin, caused the presentation of 8 original lithographs in color. The images were printed by Mourlot and published by Louis Carré, in Paris, 1962. The work is now for sale. Additional information on each work supplied upon request. We employ the intermediary of "Pay-Pal" for safety and security for both the buyer and seller.
