About the author

Marcel Mültzer was a French artist born in Angers in 1866 and died in 1937. The sources I found describe him primarily as a costume designer and illustrator rather than a novelist, with a substantial body of work connected to French theatrical productions.

Library and museum records link him to many costume designs, especially for the Opéra-Comique, and auction and catalog sources also connect his work to productions involving Sarah Bernhardt and plays by Victorien Sardou. His surviving designs suggest a career rooted in performance, character, and visual storytelling for the stage.

Because the available sources are mostly catalog entries and art databases, there is not much easily confirmed personal background online. I also could not confirm a suitable clear portrait photograph from the pages I checked, so no profile image is included.
