The etchings for the Dead Souls were executed and printed between 1923 and 1927; the sheets were stored in Ambroise Vollard's warehouse until he could publish them, but unfortunately his own death in an automobile accident and Chagall's flight from German-occupied France kept them hidden until Teriade and Chagall published them in 1950. Les Ames Mortes was issued in an edition of 285 on velin d’arches, the first 50 containing a suite on japon, and 33 artist’s proofs hors commerce. All of the portfolios were signed by the artist on the justification page. Many of the etchings are signed in the plate. There are no pencil-signed impressions. For a more extended introduction and bibliographical references, please see Dead Souls 1
