Description
There is little information found for this prolific "boudoir" artist. He was published by Galerie Lutetia in Paris and printed by "Ad Valcke." Our best guess is that this is a nom de Plume for another accomplished color aquatint artist from the turn of the century, since the work is too competent and available for him to have been so anonymous.
