EXTRACT : "REVUE DES BEAUX ARTS"

File : Painters and sculpture of busts

I Have stopped for quite a long while, on the latest "Salon d'hiver", in front of the productions of Mr.Dambourgez. There, I have found again, his continuous personal touch which stands out clearly against the " too much and so often already shown". Mostly respected artist, curious of realities, E.Dambourgez has behind him, a significant and well established experience. As soon as 1888, Albert Wolff indicates from him, at the Salon des Artistes Français, "A shop of cheeses", to which he doesexpress many elogious. In 1891, the City of Paris bought from him, a prestigious painting "The cream and cheeses saleswoman at Les Halles". And at the Salon in 1892 his painting "The Fish Market" obtains a very big success.
