Item Overview

Description

Charles MAURIN (French, 1856-1914): "Children's Circle" / "La Ronde des Enfants" (French title). Pencil drawing on tracing paper. Closely related to an etching titled "Le Jardin du Luxembourg" in Lucien Goldschmidt exhibition catalog from 1978 (cat. # 48). This is very likely a drawing made in one of Paris' main urban Gardens, the Luxembourg, the Tuileries, or the Champs-Elysees. Maurin drew frequently in each of these. But the circus or carnival lights in the background suggest it is in the former. This is very likely a preparatory drawing for a print that was never made. Signed in the image in pencil. Sheet size: 12 1/2 x 19 3/4 inches.
