Félix Buhot (1847-1898 )The Mussel Fishers. Etching after Daubigny. 240 x 168. Bourcard-Goodfriend 142. Very nice proof on laid paper. Margins. Framed. Very rare. A plate printed at 3 or 4 proofs, which Bourcard had encountered but which is not reproduced in the Goodfriend reprint of his catalogue, for lack of having seen a proof. The point tests and sketches in the margin were certainly intended to disappear after the copper was cut for the edition that was never made.
