Clarification: In 1879 Degas showed 5, Forain 4 and Pissarro 12 (I will render 15 pictures). In 1880 Morisot rendered 1 fan, Pissarro also 1 and Zandomeneghi 4 (I render just 2 pictures to compare). In 1886 Morisot exhibited ‘éventails’, I assume it were 6 fans. Pissarro showed 1 fan and probably Redon also, but outside the catalogue (I couldn’t find a picture). So at 3 expositions there were probably 35 fans exhibited, which is a small 2% of all the art-works exhibited.
On this page I will render 35 pictures of fans. For some fans I have no suggestion. Of several fans the suggestion is uncertain and the quality poor. Sometimes I render another fan to compare. Sometimes I render more than one option for 1 catalogue number. See also the accounts of Degas, Forain, Morisot, Pissarro, Redon and Zandomeneghi.
