L. Dosser: Hagar.

View through Europeana Collections
A divided postcard containing a black-and-white reproduction of the painting by the French artist Henri Lucien Doucet (1856-1895) "Hagar", in which the biblical figure is depicted being passed out on the arid soil in the desert. On the back of the postcard was printed the trademark of "Lebanon" publishing, which most likely produced it, in 1907. A few years later, the same series was printed under the same number, a postcard with a different image. This postcard was not used and was removed from a collection of "Lebanon" postcards donated to the National Library in 1939 by the publisher's editor-in-chief, Mr. Benjamin Mintz, Warsaw.
