By Edouard-Jacques Dufeu
Located in Paris, FR
Edouard Dufeu (1836-1900) A Fantastic scene by a lake Charcoal on paper Signed lower right 23 x 30,5 cm Framed under glass : 42.5 x 51 cm This fantastic scene, the subject of which remains a mystery, reveals an aspect of Edouard Dufeu's personality in which he is more influenced by Romanticism.
