Albert Besnard (1849–1934) Madame Paul Gallimard. 1885. Drypoint. 263 x 374 [303 x 444]. Godefroy 26. A very fine print on ivory laid paper, from the first state (of 2), prior to the square line, with the subject greatly reduced, annotated in pencil “1st State.” Slight waviness along the edges of the sheet. Full margins. AABM stamp (Lugt 3075). Paul Gallimard (father of the famous publisher Gaston Gallimard) associated with and actively supported Impressionist and Symbolist painters such as Auguste Renoir, Edgar Degas, and Auguste Rodin.
