The printer, Atelier Mourlot, established in 1852, began as a producer of Fine wallpaper in Paris, France. In 1914, Jules Mourlot expanded the operation to include printing illustrated books and lithographic posters for art institutions, including the French National Museum. By 1937, with Jules’ son Fernand Mourlot at the helm, Atelier Mourlot became the largest and most famous print shop of the 20th century.
Fernand Mourlot graduated from the École Nationale des Arts Décoratifs in Paris. Inside of the Atelier, he collaborated with highly recognized artists, including modern masters Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, Georges Braque, Joan Miró, Marc Chagall, Fernand Léger, Jean Dubuffet, Henry Moore and Le Corbusier, for more than half a century to produce original lithographic works.
In 1967, The Atelier Mourlot opened a branch of the studio on Bank Street, in New York City, and collaborated with artists including Robert Rauschenberg, Francis Bacon, Roy Lichtenstein, Alexander Calder, Ellsworth Kelly, Alex Katz and Claes Oldenburg to produce contemporary lithographic masterpieces. The studio closed in 1999.
