✅ SOLVED Aquatint Painting For Artist Id

My first aquatint painting and trying to possibly get a time frame as to when this may have been done and need the artist name to confirm.
Even though it is clearly signed just cannot be certain what it is... All help appreciated ..........

Your rather nice aquatint is by Lucien Dasselborne or D'Asselborne (1873-1962) and probably circa 1920s-1930s.

He was born in Louvril, France and worked largely in France but is regarded as belonging to the “Ecole Belgique” (Belgian School). He’s known both as an impressionist artist and later as an aquatint etcher. He exhibited in the 1922 “Salon des Artistes Français” (“mention honourable”) and “la Société Nationale”, and in 1931 in the "Salon d’Automne."

He also used the pseudonyms Lucien Davril (or possibly Louis Davril) and François Davril but habitually signed his aquatints “L. Davril”, as on yours. The writing bottom left will be the title of the scene, which I can't read.

There’s one of his works here with the same signature, but with a misspelled title as “Thielt Le Beefroi” (it’s actually “Thielt Le Beffroi”, which is the belfry in the Belgian town of Tielt known as Thielt in French):
