Description

Le carnaval is a wonderful black and white xilograph on paper, realized in 1880 by the French wooden engraver Charles Laplante (Sèvres, 1837 - Paris, 1903), after the French illustrator Emile Bayard ( 1837 - 1891). Original Title: Le carnaval: Nous sommes des bandits! Signed on plate on sides. With an incredible freshness of line and a beautiful dynamism, this original print describes the vivacity of a carnival parade and the joy of the city in a street party. Title on plate, on lower margin at the center. The original print is mounted in a white cardboard passepartout. In very good conditions, this beautiful modern artwork has a light foxing visible on left margin. On the back a page from "Le Tour du Monde" newspaper.
