Victor Favier (1824-?): Sitting Male Nude

*

(Insert sounds of me kicking myself in the rear-end here) This has to be a classic case of:   "If you snooze, you lose."   A seller on eBay France recently listed this nice academic nude by the French artist Victor Favier (1824-?). I bookmarked it and then forgot about it, not bothering to follow through with a sniping bid. Well guess what? It sold for a measly 45 euros. After doing some research I discovered that his other academic works have sold for four and five times that amount. Oh well, it isn't the first time I have missed a bargain and probably won't be the last.
