signed lower right
color pencils on paper
27 x 18.5 cm
In good condition, a stain visible in the upper left corner
in a modern frame : 40.5 x 32.5 cm

Marie-Joseph Léon Clavel was the son of Frédéric Clavel (1822-1902), an economist and philanthropist, and Amélie Philippe (1822-1904). He learned painting from Emmanuel Lansyer and Karl Joseph Kuwasseg.
Spending part of his childhood in Nancy, he finished his studies at the Lycée Bonaparte in Paris. In order to satisfy his father's plans, he began his active life in the trade.
In the early days of the 1870 war...
