A very nice pair of drawings that are well handles and representing snapshots of daily in the early 19th Century.

His father was the famous painter Jean Pillement.

- At Tunbridge WellBy Agostino AglioLocated in Middletown, NYBlack crayon and graphite with white heightening on blue handmade laid paper.
