The author of the original - French painter of battle-pieces Alphonse -Marie - Adolphe de Neuville (Alphonse-Marie-Adolphe de Neuville, 1835 - 1885 ) , a pupil of Delacroix . Most likely , you - etching reproduction of his painting " The French soldiers at rest " ( see embedded. 2) . Is also known as pen and ink , made by de Neville on the same topic ( vlozh.3 ) . But I do not exclude the possibility that the author of your etching can be de Neuville himself : it is known that he worked in the engraving . Although I have the impression that in the lower left corner of your prints something has been written and then erased , perhaps , the signature of an engraver .
