The "Catalogue raisonné" of the painted work

The Catalogue raisonné of Félix Vallotton's painted work lists all his known paintings, as well as a few sculptures. It also includes many of the drawings which he used as sketches for the paintings. There is a computerised record of each of the paintings supplemented by a photograph.

The catalogue itself will begin with a historical and comparative text, also illustrated by numerous hitherto unpublished documents.

The project entitled "Catalogue raisonné of Félix Vallotton's painted work" is being carried out in collaboration with the Swiss Institute for Art research (SIAR), which has included it in its programme of forthcoming publications.

The paintings – oil, tempera and some gouache – carried out by Félix Vallotton number about 1700. The great majority of these works have already been listed. The number of paintings which have not yet been located, mainly early works, is estimated between 100 and 170.

In order to list these remaining paintings, we kindly ask any collectors who may own works by Félix Vallotton to contact Marina Ducrey at the Félix Vallotton Foundation. If they wish to remain anonymous, their request will be strictly respected.

The Foundation is also seeking any documents which may throw light on the life and work of Félix Vallotton. Any information concerning such documents, whether letters, photographs, illustrations, etc, will be gratefully accepted by Marina Ducrey on behalf of the foundation.
