Among the highlights is Les Antiquaires, an oil on canvas by Louis Carrier-Belleuse, known for his keen eye in capturing Parisian life, from popular trades to everyday scenes. Also featured is La Diligence by Germain Fabien, known as Fabius Brest (estimate: €1,500–2,000). His lifelong fascination with Oriental culture and landscapes stemmed from a journey to Turkey between 1855 and 1859, which inspired many of his works. In the same spirit, Jacques-Léon Dusautoy’s La Belle Orientale carries is estimated €1,000–1,500..
