The French artist Jean Béraud (1848- 1935) was renowned for his numerous depictions of life in Paris.
L’Arc de Triomphe, Champs-Elysées (c.1882-85) is a fine example of his work which will be offered for sale on December 8 by Heritage Auctions, Dallas.
His style combines the academic art of the Salon with the looser and more expressive work of the Impressionists.
