Catalogue Note
Auguste Collon was a famous Belgian engineer and doctor in mineralogy, who spent most of his life working in the metallurgical industry, traveling across the world as far as the Russian Empire and Brazil. Collon and his wife Rachel Goron, who was originally from Lithuania, were friends with Ivan Pokhitonov and acquired a number of works directly from him.
