French engraving — Boussod et Valadon

Galerie Boussod et Valadon; Boussod, Valladon & Cie, est. 1884 - closed 1919.
Etienne Boussod was the son-in-law of Adolphe Goupil, whom he succeeded in 1875 as head of the Galerie Goupil. The name Goupil remained in use until around the turn of the century. The gallery, whose principal location was at 2, place de l'Opera, handled academic artists. A second location, at 19, boulevard Montmartre, showed less official artists. Boussod et Valadon ceased operations in 1919, and its collections were dispersed at auction at Georges Petit.
