French painter active end of nineteenth century
A small personal note (I rarely make them)...
In thirty years of activity, I have bought and sold many paintings. I gradually moved on to other specialities but never gave up my first love. This painting, bought about fifteen years ago, is from my private collection.
The painter is not very well known, but the painting is magnificent (!) My crush of the heart.
