Discover the Catalogue Raisonné of the Painted Works of Théodore Rousseau (1812-1867) by Michel Schulman, with the collaboration of Marie Bataillès and Virginie Sérafino, published by Éditions de l’Amateur in 1999. This new hardcover book is still in its original shrink wrap. ISBN 9782859172640. Admired and criticized during his lifetime, Théodore Rousseau is among the great masters of 19th-century French painting. Breaking with classical tradition, his work had never before been the subject of a catalogue raisonné. Michel Schulman fills this gap and does justice to an artist whose complexity, variety, and originality are fully revealed. The book is in French.

This comprehensive reference work systematically catalogues and documents all the known paintings by the great landscape painter, a major figure of the Barbizon School and a precursor of Impressionism, with descriptions, provenance, exhibition information, and numerous illustrations. It reveals the power of his realistic landscapes of the Fontainebleau forest and the decisive role he played in the renewal of landscape painting in the 19th century, breaking with academicism. Large and substantial (approximately 380 pages), this volume, devoted solely to his paintings, is an indispensable tool for art historians, experts, collectors, and dealers. A definitive work that finally restores Théodore Rousseau to his rightful place.
