L’Album d’estampes originales de la Galerie Vollard: Morphine Addict, 1897. Eugène Grasset (French, 1841–1917), printed by Auguste Clot (French, 1858–1936), published by Ambroise Vollard (French, 1867–1939). The Cleveland Museum of Art, Dudley P. Allen Fund 2018.31Eugène Grasset was best known for idealized and decorative images of women. This lithograph, however, focuses on a darker theme—morphine addiction. A young woman is shown at the height of withdrawal as she injects herself with the drug. The syringe was invented just a few decades prior, and its inclusion was meant to give the image a sense of modernity.
