✦ Synopsis

We review and discuss briefly the recent experimental results on Deep Virtual Compton Scattering on the proton. With the variety of independent observables beginning to be available and, in some instances, some very high precision data, some first global analysis for this process can be started, based on dedicated fitter codes, aiming at revealing the Generalized Parton Distributions content of the nucleon.
