Alfred Benoît Caillaud, "country Bouquet"

Alfred Benoît Caillaud. Oil on canvas, “Country Bouquet,” signed “A. Caillaud” in the lower right corner. 45 x 36 cm. French School. Alfred Benoît Caillaud (1858–1940) was a student of Eugène Fromentin (1820–1878). The artist began exhibiting at the Salon in 1879, continuing to do so until 1937, and began exhibiting at the Salon des Indépendants in 1889. 
Our painting is a perfect distillation of the work of Alfred Benoît Caillaud, whose talent is every bit as great as that of his most illustrious contemporaries.
Moreover, when you admire it, can you not see the influence or the touch of a Manet (Édouard Manet, 1832–1883) or a Fantin-Latour (Henri-Théodore Fantin-Latour, 1836–1904)?
Beautiful period wooden frame with gilded stucco (a few minor imperfections along the edges of the frame). Good condition.
