This intaglio print by Alexander Claude Louis Lavalley reproduces Goya's "La femme à l'éventail," demonstrating the 19th century practice of creating reproductive prints after celebrated paintings. The work employs photogravure or similar intaglio techniques to capture the tonal subtleties and atmospheric qualities of the original composition. As a verso study, this impression reveals the artist's engagement with Goya's portraiture and the period's interest in disseminating Old Master works through printmaking.
