Daniel Thouroude dit Daniel de Losques (1880-1915), dessinateur, affichiste, bombardier mort au combat.
Dessin original
Daniel Thouroude dit Daniel de Losques (1880-1915), dessinateur, affichiste, bombardier mort au combat. Dessin original, sd, environ 300*215mm. Joli dessin représentant un homme au chapeau montrant le soleil, publié selon une note sur le papier. On joint divers croquis sur calque, vraisemblablement de Losques aussi, dont plusieurs croquis de ce dessin et des croquis pour un dessin publié dans le Figaro du 4 février 1912 (combat de boxe entre Henry Bernstein et Sacha Guitry, titré L'Assaut). Bel ensemble. [277]
