Oil on oval canvas. 35 x 29.50 cm. Unframed (damaged gilded frame).
Maurice Leloir (1853–1940), who owed his Cross of the Legion of Honour to Alexandre Dumas the Younger, remained ever grateful to him for the attention and encouragement he lavished upon him. He was a close friend of the family. Among his other notable works is the 1894 illustration of *The Three Musketeers* published by Calmann Lévy.
