Large professionally framed lithograph by Guy Buffet, titled “Moulin de la Galette I.”The artwork bears Guy Buffet’s signature within the lower portion of the printed image, as shown clearly in the photographs. This is the signature commonly seen on examples of this image offered as “signed” online.Please note: The signature is printed as part of the artwork/image rather than a separately hand-written signature in the margin. The hidden margins of this particular example were personally inspected, and no additional hand signature or edition number was found.The previously concealed lower margin identifies the print as:©1994 Guy Buffet
