Les Ecrevisses a Longchamps (The Crayfish at Longchamps) - EUGENE DELACROIX

Medium: lithograph

EUGENE DELACROIX
French, (1798-1863)

Lithograph, 1822, Delteil / Strauber 37, (ii/II); edition unknown. 7 7/8 x 12 1/8 in. Unsigned. This is a fine impression as published in "Le Miroir." The margins are uneven and are trimmed fairly close on the top and both sides. There's a tiny tear on the left edge just into the image and traces of foxing. This rare, early work is a satire on "Ultra Politics" and the artist is possibly the figure in the left foreground, blowing on the whistle.       SOLD
