Authentic Jean-Louis Forain art in black ink on wove paper. Numbered and signed in pencil by the artist. (Also signed in the plate.) A lifetime impression. A fine example in very good condition.

Jean-Louis Forain was considered one of the most important artists in France during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He was a military artist during WWI. This lithograph was created from one of Forain's many drawings dealing with WWI and its aftermath. It was published in 1920 as part of a suite of lithographs entitled, "De La Marne Au Rhin:  Dessins De Annees De Guerre, 1914-1919."
