The Sicilian writer, journalist, art critic, art publisher, gallerist and art dealer Gualtieri di San Lazzaro (1904-1974) arrived at Paris for the first time in 1924 and stayed there until the breakout of World War II. San Lazzaro got acquainted with the most important artists who lived and worked in that time in Montmartre and Montparnasse including Picasso, Matisse and Chagall and decided to devote his career to the promotion of modern art. The interesting story of his life covers half a century of intensive writing, publishing and dealing with contemporary art which came to its peak in the beginning of the 50s when Lazzaro returned to Paris and resumed the publishing of his renowned XXe Siecle art magazine.

The first issue of the XXe Siecle magazine was published by San Lazzaro in 1938 as an offshoot of the Chroniques du Jour art magazine which he edited and published in Paris since 1925. Lazzaro's innovative idea was to combine the publication of an art journal with the inclusion of original graphics and lithographs of famous artists and thus to create an editorial product which is informative for art lovers as well as valuable for art collectors. Lazzaro published 4 issues of the XXe Siecle art magazine between 1938 and 1939 but had to stop the operation due to the burst of the war. He later moved back to Italy.
In 1949, 5 years after the end of the war, Lazzaro returned to Paris and two years later, in 1951, he initiated the re-publishing of the XXe Siecle Nouvelle Serie (The New Series) which was renovated in its graphic design and format but followed the same formula developed in 1938 - disseminating art analysis and art critics content and, at the same time, necklace each issue with original lithographs made by the greatest European masters of the twentieth century.

In 1969 Gualtieri di San Lazzaro initiated the publication of the XXe Siecle Special Issue Homage To (Numero Special Hommage a) series - the first issue in the series was dedicated to Marc Chagall who was a close friend of San Lazzaro.
Each of the art books in the "Homage To" series was dedicated to one of the great artists of the 20th century - Picasso, Matisse, Kandinsky, Chagall, Moore, Leger, Ernst, Miro and Rouault just to name a few. The albums were profusely illustrated with many unique color reproductions and photographs; the texts in the books which include essays, reminiscences, artist's monographs, critic articles and exclusive interviews which covered the artist's oeuvre, were written by the most renown art historians, art critics and artists of that important era in art.

The beautiful art books in the Hommage collectors' series were published in a luxurious hardcover format between the years 1969 - 1974 and distributed independently of the PANORAMA magazine subscription program. Some of the albums were translated to English and distributed to collectors in England and the USA by local publishing houses such as the Tudor Publishing CO of New York. San Lazzaro replicated the successful recipe of the PANORAMA magazine by accompanying each issue of the "Hommage To" series with embedded original print works of the artist - lithographs, woodcuts and linoleum cuts which were printed on high quality paper.
This rare collection of art books includes some of the best art albums of the 20th century. Our copies are in a very good condition, all of them are accompanied with original print works - you are invited to click on the thumbnails of the books and have a look at the book's front cover and the detailed table of contents of each of the albums.
