EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print titled "Octavie, from The Songs of Beranger, 1829" by Melchior Peronard takes us back to the enchanting world of 19th-century France. Inspired by the renowned French poet Pierre Jean de Béranger's songs, this intaglio artwork beautifully captures a moment filled with emotion and allure.
