Note du spécialiste


Alexander Fisher was a British artist, silversmith and enameller. His works were much admired in his own time and his bright enamels were much published, two related enamel panels are illustrated in A. Fisher, 'The Art of Enamelling on Metal', The Studio, vol. 23, July 1901, pp. 88-89.
