Since the publication of the first two volumes of the catalogue raisonné in 2002 and 2009, events in honour of the painter Edouard Cortès (1882-1969) have multiplied in Normandy, his adopted home for fifteen years: the inauguration of a commemorative plaque in Cormelles-le-Royal in 2012 and the publication of a book by the town; a first exhibition in 2015 at the Charles-Léandre Museum in Condé-sur-Noireau of nearly 80 paintings followed by a second, collective exhibition in 2019 at the Musée de Normandie in Caen.

This third volume of the catalogue raisonné enriches our knowledge of the artist, highlighting once again the work of Cortès, who was marked by the light and atmospheric changes of the Normandy region, as were Boudin or Monet before him.

The book includes important discoveries by Nicole Verdier: two paintings depicting Paris and its Grands Boulevards, held in the prestigious collections of the Pushkin Museum in Moscow.
