Claude-Emile Schuffenecker. Catalogue Raisonne Vol.2

About this book

Following the publication of Vol. 1 in 2000, documenting 567 paintings and drawings by the artist, this second volume presents an additional 205 new works, including the first English translation by the author of her expert testimony for the Tribunal de Grande Instance de Paris concerning Van Gogh's JARDIN A AUVERS. Her analysis questions the conclusions and methods of the 60-page technical tome published by the Direction des Musees de France. Most importantly in this new book is the long-awaited list of the Schuffenecker Collection of Van Gogh, Gauguin, Cezanne, Bernard, Filiger, and Redon. The author is currently a consultant to Christie's and Sotheby's (London, NY, Paris), as well as to numerous private collectors and galleries. She was Guest Curator for the 1996 Schuffenecker Retrospective at the Musee de Pont-Aven and the Musee Maurice Denis, writing at the time numerous articles for scholarly publications, appearing in a number of television interviews and programs on the question of authenticity in Van Gogh's oeuvre. She has published essays on Antoine de La Rochefoucauld (Quadri & Sculture, Rome) and the correspondence between Gauguin and Schuffenecker for the exhibition catalogue PAUL GAUGUIN, VON DER BRETAGNE NACH TAHITI (Austria).
