These two beautiful prints of academic male nudes turned up recently in a gallery in Italy. They appear to be proof prints from the engraving competition of the Ecole des Beaux-Arts, Grand Prix de Rome circa 1892. They reminded me of the single print I have in my collection by Arthur Mayeur (1871-1934) which appeared in the 1896 exhibition. One of the prints had a handwritten notation: "A Monsieur Magimel souvenir de son ami Detrurck." So we can assume the artist's last name is Detrurck. Unforunately I could find no information on the artist. Enjoy.
