Paris, Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle, 1892. Heliogravure, after a photograph, 31.3 x 24.7 cm (printed surface 26.7 x 16.7 cm).

The versatile French naturalist Jean Louis Armand de Quatrefages de Bréau (1810-1892) published on invertebrates, including molluscs and annelids, and on anthropological and ethnographical subjects. He was chairman of the department of anthropology and ethnography at the Muséum. This portrait, showing him at the end of his life, was published posthumously in the Muséum's "Nouvelles archives". Some light soiling, discolouring and fraying to the very outer lower margin; the portrait itself clean and in a strong impression. Rare.
