French Neoclassical c. 1810 Charcoal Study of a Hand - Two of Two

Regular price $145.00

I purchased this beautifully executed charcoal drawing directly from a seller in France along with one other, listed separately. Both I know were found in the Sartre region, and both done on watermarked laid paper, which date them to about 1810. I love a good hand, whether drawn or carved or otherwise, and this finely rendered, softly cupped hand seems as if forever on the verge of grasping something. Really lovely.

19 3/8” x 13 7/8” and in good condition, with light scattered soiling, minor, and light old fold lines at corners, top and mid horizontal. Shipped flat.
