Finding Prints by Artist/Catalogue Raisonne #

To access print information by catalogue raisonne number from the artist window, click on the appropriate speed button or choose By Artist/Catalogue # from the Menu Bar. This brings up a window with a small list box to the right of the artist's name, and to the left of the larger summary/detail window. This lists all of the artist's prints by catalogue raisonne number in ascending alphabetical and numerical order. You can scroll down to a print, use the page up/down keys, or use the blank area at the top by selecting a catalogue number (a letter and a number, e.g. B 1). The program will take you there automatically. You do not need to click the Go button. The Go button is used only to take you to an artist.

Once you locate the catalogue raisonne number in the list window, make sure the number is highlighted in blue and double left click on the number. This will bring up all the prints in the database by that artist with that catalogue number, with all the information and features identical to those found in the Title window.

Remember that the program will take you beyond the number you are looking for, if that number is not in the database. As an example, under Miro if you type in M503, the program will take you to M506, the next number in the database after M503, since M503 is not in the database.

There is a certain assumption that you know the main catalogue raisonne of the artist whose print(s) you are seeking, and the exact catalogue number, if you use this feature. To find what references may be used, go to the Reference Abbreviations by Artist section, detailed later under Bibliography.

PLEASE NOTE: When a different artist is selected, the window type currently being accessed (either title or catalogue number) will be the window displayed for the next artitst. That is, if one is using the catalogue raisonné number window and a new artist is chosen by clicking on the new artist's name, the catalogue window for the new artist will appear, not the title window.
