This is a portrait of Charles de Montalembert, a French politician and writer, created by Eugène Leguay. The print, created between 1832 and 1910, is a fine example of a portrait engraving, a popular art form during this period. Montalembert is depicted in a formal pose, looking directly at the viewer. The artist uses detailed lines and shading to create a sense of realism and to capture Montalembert's likeness. The portrait, measuring 135mm by 87mm, is a small but detailed work that is characteristic of Leguay's style. This work is likely to be of interest to art lovers and historians interested in French political figures and portrait engravings.
