For a time, these two great Lyon painters shared a studio together and the collaborations between the two have a mythical status in the history of Lyon art. The Musée des Beaux-Arts de Lyon has a smaller painting in the same genre painted by the two together - Bathers. Undergrowth; evening effect. Wood, 21 x 28. MBA Lyon (Inv. B784)
