Signed by Louis ROBIN and dated 1867 in the lower right corner. Dimensions out of frame 62,3 x 78,5 cm and 85 x 102,5 cm with its beautiful frame.
ROBIN Louis was born in 1845 in Villefranche-sur-Saône (Rhône), a student of the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Lyon and then in Paris.

Photo taken in natural light, no spotlights, so identical to what it will look like in your home.
