:-SECRETMODIGLIANI-:..... CERONI

CHRISTIAN PARISOT > CATALOGUE RAISONNÉ (S):

This can be a hard task. many publications, addendums and paintings added by press or exhibitions, even conferences so I will try to update it quite often (much more presented, but my time is limited...) by the moment, 64 works.

His publication from 1991 (+- $400 ) is printed by the Guastalla brothers, the owners of the Modigliani House in Livorno, so it can be a really hard work to place it online.

( I will attend ONLY oil works to remain in a safer area).

This is based in :
1. 1991 - Modigliani, Catalogue Raisonné Tome II. by Christian Parisot
  Editions Graphis Arte 1991, edited by Giorgio and Guido Guastalla.
  Among the collaborators are:
  - Sylvie Buisson
  - Fulvio Venturi
  - Guido & Giorgio Guastalla
2. Various Auction appraisals.
3. Press conferences.
4. Exhibitions in Italy, France, Spain, England, etc.
  
  The total number of works is: UNKNOWN (maybe he can give it but I'm unable)
  
  So to not live eternally doing recollections of his work I will limit myself to add the works he includes as new (yes maybe they are also in Lanthemann or even the rest) but this is only to show some of the highlights of his work.
  
  By the way Christian if you read this and want to change any possible mistake or add something, just contact me (you know how).

ONE OF HIS EXPERTISES.

PLEASE NOTE:

I DO NOT SAY THAT ANY OF THESE ARTWORKS ARE FAKES OR ORIGINALS, I JUST SHOW THEM AS AN EXAMPLE OF HIS INVESTIGATIONS, WORKS, AND DISCOVERIES.

I AM NOT AUTHORIZED TO DO THIS KIND OF APPRECIATION.

I have no idea why he decided to not include this work.

This is a RECOPILLATION of Works he accepts (not included by Ceroni) and published in his books or exhibits, (sorry for the lack of information, but is what I have).

PLEASE NOTE: WHEN I SAY "FIRST TIME I SAW IT" IT MEANS THAT, I DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO HIS FILES SO THE FIRST TIME I SAW THAT WORK WAS IN AN EXHIBIT, PUBLICATION, ETC. PROBABLY IT WAS PRESENTED PREVIOUSLY IN OTHER CATALOGUE OR WHO KNOWS, I JUST RECALL MY EXPERIENCE.

IT CAN NOT BE USED AS A RELIABLE SOURCE BECAUSE OF THE MANY MISTAKES IT PRESENTS AS FOR INSTANCE:

Nº 3/1913 = CARIATIDE / 81 X 46 CM. / OIL ON CANVAS / TRABOULSI COLL. FRANCE / PFANNSTIEL Nº 27, CERONI Nº 37, BLA BLA BLA...

THE REALITY:

PFANNSTIEL Nº 27

Cariatide

1913

Oil on cardboard

82 x 46 cm

A. Verdiram. Coll., Milano

ACTUALLY IN AICHI PREFECTURAL MUSEUM JAPAN
OIL / CANVAS ON PANEL
SIZE IS: 87.5 X 67

CERONI Nº 37

Standing cariatide

1913

Oil on canvas

81 x 45 cm

P.C. London, UK.

Correct size is: 80 x 45.5 cm.
Rastellini say it's 81,5 x 45 cm.

THIS IS THE IMAGE VISIBLE UNDER THE REFERENCE 3/1913 IN PARISOT CATALOGUE RAISONNE

OK YES, THEY LOOK SIMILAR, BUT THIS IS ABSOLUTELLY INACCEPTABLE IN A CATALOGUE "RAISONNE".

IT CAN'T BE A PRINTING MISTAKE SINCE Nº 36 IN CERONI IS THE SAME ARTWORK THAN Nº 27 IN PFANNSTIEL
AND Nº 1/1913 IN PARISOT BEARS THE PROVENANCE AND HISTORIQUE FILES OF Nº 27 IN PFANNSTIEL
BUT NO MENTION O THE PRESENCE IN THE CATALOGUE RAISONNE BY PFANNSTIEL AND Nº 528 IN LANTHEMANN

THIS LITTLE MISTAKE CREATE A TOTAL MESS WITH THE 4 WORKS ON THE SAME YEAR

ANOTHER ONE:


Parisot entry: 10 / 1916 PORTRAIT OF BEATRICE HASTINGS IN HIS TEXT: Nature: Oil on canvas Size: 65 x 46 cm. Signature: Signé et daté en haut a gauche. (signed and dated upper left)
dyslexic and didn´t read it well or the signature is in upper right side? maybe another printing mystic mistake?

NICE EXAMPLE OF THE QUALITY:

Nº 12/1915 = RAYMOND / 37 X 29 CM. / OIL ON CANVAS / PRIVATE COLL. / PFANNSTIEL Nº 38, LANTHEMANN Nº 70 , CERONI Nº 56, BLA BLA...

THE REALITY:

young man (raymond Radiguet?) by amedeo Modigliani

Pfannstiel Nº 38

Young man (R. Radiguet?)

Illustrated in page 74

Not catalogued by Parisot

Lanthemann Nº 70

Raymond

Same image in Parisot Nº 12/1915

Ceroni Nº 56

Raymond

Same image in Parisot Nº 12/1915

parisot, lanthemann and ceroni, say the same, but is this mistake acceptable in a CATALOGUE "RAISONNE"???.

IT CAN'T BE A PRINTING MISTAKE SINCE pfannstiel Nº 38 is illustrated in the book
(one of the few with photo)
choose your option to explain the mistake:

1.- parisot haven´t seen the pfannstiel.
2.- he needs glasses.
3.- not a reliable work and the 2 previous.

THIS LITTLE MISTAKE CREATE A TOTAL MESS WITH THE other 4 raymond's known...

On this painting:
“What Parisot’s doing isn’t art history,” Restellini says. “It destroys and deforms everything Modigliani did. Someone once approached me saying they had the archives of [Modigliani expert] Joseph Lanthemann. They offered the documents to me if I would authenticate a Modigliani that they owned. Parisot had already published it as authentic, but I had it tested and it’s clearly fake.” The painting, Nu couché, Restellini explains, shows traces of titanium, a paint additive foreign to Modigliani’s works. Asked to explain that discrepancy, Parisot labels the presence of titanium inconclusive, speculating that it could be in the painting’s varnish. “We tested multiple layers and found traces everywhere,” Restellini replies. “That painting is riddled with titanium. It’s not the varnish.

Dr. Suzy Delbourgo and Dr. Lola Faillant-Dumas from the research laboratories of the French museums explain under fake and attributions:

X-ray image shows a disordered image, the structure of the work is not constructed, the contours are out of placement opposite as modigliani , the line has been painted over the figure, the brush stoke is formed by long, plain and dull brush work in opposite to Modigliani brush work configured or round and perpendicular brush play
