The seller, carmel*arts, Carmel, California, United States. Positive Feedback 100%:
This original artwork is hand drawn on rich brown art paper signed “F. L.” It measures 9” x 12”. The individual strokes where the color is laid down on the paper are clearly visible. The top edge of paper is deckled. The artwork is preserved under glass with a new frame and acid-free material measures 14 ¾” x 17 ¾”.
The style and initials ‘F.L.’ corresponds with that of Fernand Léger, one of the most famous artists of the twentieth century. He was born in 1881, in Argentan, Normandy, France; died in 1955 in Gif-sur-Yvette, France. After apprenticing with an architect in Caen from 1897 to 1899, Leger settled in Paris in 1900 and supported himself as an architectural draftsman.

The seller, goldielox2:
This original charcoal drawing signed henri Matisse, is one of a number of paintings and drawings that will be offered for auction on ebay. Not a lithograph or print of any kind. There is no reason to go on about this great artist.......... Henri Matisse the charcoal drawing measures 9 inches in height and 12.7 inches in width. The drawing is in excellent condition, and has been kept unframed for many years. This work, as well as a number of other works of varied artists, has come to me via my grandparents. Grandfather was russian born and traveled extensively as a violinist, and concertmeister for ballets, etc. There were many stories of him traveling and working with famous artists and musicians. As a practical matter this drawing is offered... As is, and will go to the highest bidder. All auction results are final. No reserve, bid with confidence.
