GEORGES ROUAULT
La Chevauchée.

Color lithograph on Japan paper, 1910. 335x443 mm; 13 1/4x17 3/8 inches, full margins. Edition of 25. Signed, dated and inscribed "no. 11--tiré à 25 épreuves" in brown ink, lower right. A very good impression of this extremely scarce, early lithograph.

One of Rouault's earliest printed works. This was intended as a single-sheet lithograph and not part of a series, as is most of his printed oeuvre from the 1920s/1930s.

We have found only 6 other impressions at auction in the past 30 years. Chapon/Rouault 305; Wofsy 81.
