About this artwork

Professor Sharon R. Harrison published the catalogue raisonné Etchings of Odilon Redon in 1986 and continued to work on a catalog on Redon’s lithographs until her death in 1988. Harrison’s papers, including research notes and photographs, were left to Peter Morse, who intended to continue her research and complete the lithograph catalog. Morse died shortly after Harrison, and this project remains unpublished to this day. This collection supplements the Mellerio papers described below.
