Fawn And Goat Study

The work is signed lower left and bears the wax stamp of the Rosa Bonheur sale at the Galerie Georges Petit in Paris in May-June 1900 on the back.

Some of his works can be found in some of the world's greatest museums, such as the Musée d'Orsay in Paris and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
