I tried to find information regarding this painting (etching), but Google didn't help.
I bought it in Germany, but it's originally from N.Y.C.U.S.A (written on the top). On the back it's written 10/11, 1925.
The signature is original.
An one can help ?

Says "Copyright 1937 by Camilla Lucas, N.Y.C.U.S.A." Did you do a search on that? I found this:

"Sidney Z. Lucas
Sidney Z. Lucas was an art entrepreneur who was responsible for a large number of prints which generate many questions to our shop as well as on various antique forums on the internet. Lucas' prints are those either issued by “Camilla Lucas” or the “Paris Etching Society.” His prints can also be identified by a circular or triangular symbol with the initials “SZL.” Some of the details are uncertain, but the general story of Lucas and his prints is as follows. [Addition Jan. 2010: Lucille Lucas, daughter of Sidney Lucas, has left a comment to this blog correcting some apparent errors in this blog and adding some extra information.

Thank you dear friends for the help you gave me.
Without your help I couldn't find nothing about the painting.
I love art work, and not knowing the source of it drive me crazy !!
Thanks again .
The maker of this etching is Suzanne Meunier. She had signed a different signature on the two examples showed on the Delcampe site.
On eBay you can see an etching with the same signature as on your etching.

Suzanne Meunier is one of only two female artists creating etchings in the Boudoir style. It's unsurprisingly a male dominated genre, this is a very 19th century attitude when the men were free to study the female form whilst the ladies were left studying flowers. The two ladies currently on my list are Vala Moro and now Suzanne Meunier, both created original signed etchings of nude or partially dressed young ladies. Whilst Vala Moro's pictures were closer to the Icart style, Meunier's work tends toward the graphic Vargas "Pin Up" style.,
You're very welcome!
