Environs de Choisy-le-Roi
This etching of a marshy landscape southeast of Paris reproduces a painting of the same title, now lost, that Daubigny exhibited in the Salon of 1843. At this early point in his career, Daubigny made his living as an illustrator. His skills as a printmaker also enabled him to promote and circulate reproductions of his own Salon submissions. This print was published in the short-lived periodical "Les Beaux-Arts: Illustration des Arts et de la Littérature."
