Charles Dufresne (1876-1938), Chasseurs de Lion (The Lion Hunters), etching, aquatint and drypoint, 1921, signed in pencil lower right and numbered (40/40) lower left [also signed in the plate lower center].

Published by Editions Sagot, with the blindstamp of Edmund Sagot Lugt 2254) bottom margin. A fine rich impression, printed in a brownish/black ink, with substantial drypoint burr.

In 1910 he won the Prix de l’Afrique du Nord...
