"The Madame B Album" is an album of photographs and drawings by Marie-Blanche Hennelle Fournier, a French artist who lived from 1831 to 1906. This specific piece, dated to the 1870s, is a collage of various elements including photographs of a castle and architectural details, as well as hand-drawn coats of arms. The album, now at the Art Institute of Chicago, offers a glimpse into Fournier's artistic practice and her interest in historical and architectural motifs.
