This death notice from 1906, likely created for an anonymous recipient, is a unique artifact that sheds light on the life of Félix Fénéon and his family in early 20th century Paris. The notice announcing the death of Marie-Louise Fénéon, the mother of the art critic and publisher Félix Fénéon, provides insights into the social life and mourning practices of the time. It is an intriguing example of ephemeral printing within the context of the art world and family history.
