Charles Wittmann (French, 1876 – 1953) Cows grazing in Franche-Comte Oil on board Signed ‘CH. WITTMANN’ (lower right) 21.1/4 x 36.3/8 in. (54 x 92.5 cm.)

Living in Paris for 18 years, he made the Parisian street one of his favorite subjects and declined, from the end of the 19th century to 1914, the lively scenes and the effervescence of the boulevards, squares, markets or festivals of the capital, with architecture reinvented under the Second Empire by Baron Haussman.
