Portfolio: An Intercontinental Quarterly was a literary journal edited by Caresse Crosby and published by Black Sun Press, Paris. It ran from 1945 to 1947, and published avant-garde writers and artists with the intention of introducing them to the American public. The present work appeared alongside reproductions of works by Henri Cartier-Bresson, Pablo Picasso, Dora Maar and Paul Eluard. Each issue had a print run of 1,000, and the deluxe copies (only 200) included an original artwork. Matisse (1869-1954) had created the current work, originally titled L'Antillaise , exclusively for Portfolio II . After publishing Portfolio VI in the summer of 1947, Crosby relocated to the United States and ceased publication due to wartime hardships. Duthuit 567.
