Etching by the rather well-known French graphic artist and illustrator Auguste Brouet (1872-1941), who became particularly famous for his etchings of city and harbour views, people and landscapes. His work is frequently offered at auctions. The etching probably depicts the return of the fishing boats, with the women bringing the fish ashore in baskets. Brouet etched quite a few harbour views. The etching is signed ("A. Brouet") at the bottom right, and bears the message "Epr. d'art (épreuve d'artiste) and the numbering 8/10" at the bottom left in pencil. Furthermore, the paper bears a stamp (left centre-bottom) and, in pencil, the letters s/j (?).
