    Porteur d’Amphore, Maurice Desvallières (1862–1913)  1898

    Original color lithograph by Maurice Desvallières, published in L’Estampe Moderne in 1898. The composition shows a young, muscular man in classical Roman or Greek dress carrying a large amphora through a richly detailed architectural interior filled with statues, columns, and patterned tile flooring — a vivid evocation of the grandeur of antiquity. Desvallières combines idealized strength and realism, capturing both the physical tension of the figure and the luminous setting surrounding him. Issued as part of the celebrated monthly portfolio L’Estampe Moderne (1897–99), printed by Champenois in Paris and distributed by Masson & Piazza. The sheet bears the embossed blindstamp “L’Estampe Moderne / E.M.” in the lower right margin and the artist’s printed signature within the image. Excellent example from the original issue with strong color and wide margins.

    A. Laurens – Le Bain des Nymphes (1898)

    Published in 1898 for L’Estampe Moderne, this original stone lithograph by A. Laurens depicts a group of classical nymphs bathing, a subject frequently treated in late-nineteenth-century decorative art. The composition follows the academic tradition of mythological themes, emphasizing form and movement rather than narrative. Laurens contributed several plates to L’Estampe Moderne, a monthly art publication issued in Paris by Masson & Piazza between 1897 and 1899. Each print was produced by F. Champenois and bears the embossed blind stamp of L’Estampe Moderne in the lower margin.
