Reason catalog is a scientific study that includes all the famous works of a particular artist.
Principles for Creating Reasonable Directories
The catalog-reason differs from the exhibition catalog or book in that it is impossible to make a free or selective presentation of the works, because the catalog-catalog should comprehensively illuminate the authorβs creative path [1] .
First of all, reason catalogs are compiled for scientists, providing at their disposal a trustworthy complete and comprehensive database of the work of a particular artist [1] . Creating a catalog-reason takes many years, and sometimes decades [1] .
Reproductions of works in the catalog-reason are arranged in chronology, each work is accompanied by information about the size, technique, participation in exhibitions, all references in scientific monographs and articles, provenance work [1] .
