Figure is an Original Pencil Drawing realized by Alexandre Bida (1823-1895). Good conditions. No signature. F. Alexandre Bida (1813–1895) was a French painter. He was born in Toulouse, and specialized in Orientalism and studied under Eugène Delacroix, but with an artist's eye for precision and perfection, he soon developed his own style. During Bida's youth, he traveled and worked in Egypt, Greece, Turkey, Lebanon, and Palestine. He became well known for his exhibition shows during the period between 1847 and 1861. He was also an illustrator of the Holy Bible. As a Bible illustrator, Bida's Les Saints Evangiles was published in 1873. In it, the four gospels were enriched by his twenty-eight etchings. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
issues arising from misattribution
