Portraits is an etching realized by Frédéric Villot (1809-1875) after Eugène Delacroix. Good condition on a yellowed paper, included a white cardboard passpartout ( 64x51 cm). Hand-signed by the artist on the margins. The artwork represents three portraits and a figure of a musician. Marie-Joseph Frédéric Villot (31 October 1809 – 27 May 1875) was a French printmaker and friend of the prominent Romantic painter Eugène Delacroix, was also an art historian, who served as paintings curator of the Louvre Museum from 1848 to 1861. Born at Liège, a possession of the Napoleonic Empire, he died at Paris. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no official proof of authenticity, however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity issues arising from misattribution
