Les chantres Espagnols

Legros, Alphonse, 1837-1911 · [ca. 1865]

There are eight in the church choir; the first four to the right, seated in stalls, have short candles in their hands; the others are standing; one of them turns the page of a missal placed on a lectern and lights it with a long lamp with two burners. This plate dates from as early, at least, as 1865, for a proof was shown at the R.A. exhibition that year. Note the work on the middle part of lamp has been reduced.
