Charles Meryon
French · b. 1821
Meryon was a master of Parisian etching who captured the dense architectural character and bustling street atmosphere of Paris with extraordinary detail and monochromatic precision, very much like Brouet's depiction of Avenue de Clichy.
Théophile Alexandre Steinlen
Swiss-French · b. 1859
Steinlen documented the working class street life of Montmartre with vivid urban energy and graphic detail, focusing on the same Parisian boulevards and morning neighborhood scenes that define Brouet's etching.
Anders Zorn
Swedish · b. 1860
Zorn created technically virtuosic etchings capturing the lively movement and energy of city street scenes with dynamic linework and atmospheric depth that closely parallels Brouet's modernist approach to Parisian urban life.
