Le Pont Neuf (Paris)
Besides the fisherman, a mysterious tramrails (of which no examples of this structure in other copies of art or photograph could be found), some beached small vessels and the outline of a Bateau Lavoir (lower right) is visible.
Although many artist impressions (paintings, etchings etc) of the Pont Neuf can be found the passage on quay level is not found very often. First of all the Armington artist etching couple (Frank & Caroline) came to mind but the signature tells different !
Maybe an interested reader or specialist can help reading the signature.....
Some nice examples by well and lesser known artists:
 |
| Caroline Armington |
 |
| Jules de Bruycker |
 |
| William Wilson (Scottish) |
 |
| August Lepère |
All help and suggestions to the artist are very welcomed !
