The full exhibition contains some 100 paintings, along with ceramics, sculpture, prints, and livres d'artistes (limited-edition artists' books) commissioned and published by Vollard, all of which illustrate his superb eye for art, patronage of artists and unique place as a singular influence on Modern Art.
