The seventeen original coloured etchings were pulled in Paris by Roger Lacourière. The black & white wood engravings were designed by Georges Rouault, cut by Georges Aubert and printed by by Henri Jourde. All were published by Ambroise Vollard, Paris, 1939 in an edition of 245 with 25 hors commerce copies. The plates were cancelled after printing. The etchings are presented in hand-made gesso frames with gold leaf finish and top quality museum glass which is non reflective with no loss of image. The wood engravings are presented in a choice of hand made oak or black wooden frames. Rouault worked upon Passion during 1934-36 and eventually produced 17 coloured etchings (all but one signed with the monogram G.R. and dated 1935 or 1936 in the plate) and 82 black and white wood-engravings (all but one signed G.R. or Georges Rouault and dated 1934, 1935 or 1936 on the block). The etchings were printed by Roger Lacourière and the wood-engraving blocks were cut by George Aubert and printed by Henri Jourde. Passion was issued by Vollard in February 1939 in an edition limited to 270 copies printed on Montval laid paper.
