Note du spécialiste

This sheet formerly belonged to Baron de Malaussena, the the great 19th Century collector. The first 182 lots in his posthumous sale were works by Boissieu. Boissieu made an engraving of this same subject (D.-J. de Boissieu, J.-J. de Boissieu: catalogue raisonné de son oeuvre, Paris, 1879, p. 9, no. 10). Dargoire is a commune of the Loire department in France, located between Lyon and Saint-Etienne.
