Artist, French, 1837 - 1911

This print shows a man seated at a piano, leaning forward with one hand on the keys and the other hovering just above them. The piano is on the left side of the print, and the man is on the right, looking at the piano. He has long hair and a beard, and he is wearing a long, dark garment with a high neck. Tall, white sheets of paper rest upright on the piano, and he looks at them. The background is dark, with crisscrossing lines on the beige paper.
