A seller on eBay France has recently listed an "attic find" oils on canvas of a sitting male nude portrait by the French artist Victor Petit (1817-1871). Petit was trained by his father and later studied under Simon Fort, a noted landscape and battle scene painter, in Paris and exhibited his works at the Paris Salon from 1837 to 1863. Petit was best known for his lithographs of mountain views and architectural drawings. The painting is signed and dated 1866.
