Catalog raisonné by Édouard Manet

The List of Édouard Manet list the work of French painter, draftsman and graphic artist Édouard Manet on. After his death in 1883 a number of catalog raisonnés were created by various authors, most of which are limited to sub-areas. Some of the authors devoted themselves exclusively to paintings and pastels, others specialized in printmaking. The various authors built on the previously published publications of other authors. Accordingly, the newer works supplement or update the previous editions - especially with information on the current owner and provenance. However, there are also contradicting statements. These relate in particular to information on the time of creation, in some cases also on picture titles and dimensions. A major difference between the individual editions is primarily in the write-ups or write-downs of works. In the scientific literature, reference is usually made to the most recently published catalog raisonnés, namely the catalog raisonné of Rouart / Wildenstein for paintings, pastels and drawings and the catalogs of Harris or Wilson for prints. Since these last catalog raisonnés all date from the 1970s, the information they contain does not necessarily reflect the current state of science.
