A very fine print on thin cream-colored vellum, with a correction made in pen and sepia ink in the caption (“Coeuilly” for “Chennevières”), along with three lines of handwritten text in pen beneath the subject: "Bracquemond sketched this on December 2, 1870. We were standing with him and R[...] on the ruins of an old telegraph station / near Père Lachaise. The battle had been raging since 6 a.m. At 2:00 a.m., the Prussians unveiled a formidable battery / on the hill at the foot of the Coeuilly Woods. It made our hearts sink. But our shells gradually silenced it, and at 2:25 a.m. we saw it fire its final volley! "Slight creases. All margins intact. AABM postmark (Lugt 3075). Subject likely intended for publication in the press.
