JOSEPH LIONEL WILLIAMS. The Bravos - painted by Meissonier, 1856. Creator: Joseph Lionel Williams.

JOSEPH LIONEL WILLIAMS. The Bravos - painted by Meissonier, 1856. Engraving '...after a picture by Meissonier, a very popular artist in France, who paints small fancy subjects. This picture tells its own tale - two assassins watching at a door for the exit of their intended victim. It has not been engraved in France - at least not for sale, if at all..Such is the desultory, fanciful style of this very pleasing artist, and the success with which he prosecutes it almost excites regret that he does not aspire a little higher and attempt something more important and upon a larger scale'. From "Illustrated London News", 1856.
