Jazz

Editions Gerd Hatje, 1948. Soft cover. Condition: As New. Folder for Matisse's "Jazz", with two original pochoirs reduced in size directly from the original cutouts; explosive in their form and colour, they actually give the impression of the larger final book. With notes on the work and subscription form published in advance by Gerd Hatje, the German publisher of "Jazz." Usually the pochoirs are missing, or are easy to spot copies. This is the original. This item sold at a Paris Drouot auction several years ago listed at 4000-6000, selling for 10,064 with buyer's premium. Another went recently in Britain for £3800.
