[QUOTE="AntiqueBytes, post: 2719666, member: 13195"]Having problems identifying the artist of a signed engraving I just bought. It obviously falls into the category of Henry Dupont, which its signed. It's a common theme of his to create engravings of houses. But there is also a Louis Henry Dupont that seemed according to some to be known as Louis Dupont. Some information out there is probably false, so hoping someone has some reference books or just knows online sources better. Here is something I found online: "Antique Original Signed Etching by engraver Louis Henry Dupont 1840-1910. Signed by artist from Vezelay, France. Henry Dupont (Parigi, 1840 - 1910) - Vazelay Etching Louis-Henry Dupont was a prolific French painter and engraver of the 19th century; he studied art in Paris with the great painter Jean-Léon Gérime. He was a full member of the Salon des Artistes Francais, where he exhibited his works every year." The prolific part is helpful as the works of "Louis Dupont" seem different than the Henry Dupont that did these outdoor house scenes. Don't worry about "Henri Dupont" he is a later artist. Are there two artists in the 19th Century,one Henry Dupont and the other Louis Henry Dupont? If there are, I should be able to get birthdates. If you notice a recent ebay auction, the artist listed as Louis Henry Dupont signed his work Henry Dupont. It takes me a while to post pictures and since mine isn't different than the common house pictures of Henry Dupont I won't have one up for a while.[/QUOTE]
