Collection des estampes de la Ville de Vevey

 

The City of Vevey’s print collection was separated from the Musée Jenisch’s holdings in 2008 in order to join more distinctly those of the Cabinet cantonal des estampes. A collection of approximately 7,500 prints documents the history of engraving and contemporary print production.

Three particular collections should be mentioned: the almost complete engraved work of the French burinist Cécile Reims (*1927), the entire collection of editions by the Lausanne collective CIRCUIT and a collection of Japanese and Chinese prints of more than 3,000 works and objects.
