Michel Manzi

French (born Italy), Naples 1849–1915 Saint-Raphaël

Michel Manzi, a French artist born in Naples in 1849 and active until his death in 1915, worked in the printmaking traditions of the late nineteenth century, favoring color etching with roulette for his portrait subjects. The archive holds a single sheet by him, a portrait of Edgar Degas shown in profile. Its date range, 1886, refers to the sheets as catalogued by the Met and may include later impressions rather than only lifetime printings.
