Jean Lepautre Art
French, 1618-1682
The French draftsman and engraver with a long career, Jean Lepautre produced nearly 1500 etchings. Appointed as Ordinary Engraver of King Louis XIV in 1667, he was received at the Royal Academy of Painting and Sculpture in 1677. His recognition by Colbert earned him the right to engrave boards of rare and precious quality for the King's Cabinet. Today we can remember of his production, masterpieces as the whole Grotto of Versailles, the Festival has given at Versailles in 1668, the Entertainment given by the King in 1674, in addition to the wide graphic production representing basins, statues and vases of the Versailles Park, preserved at the Official Chalcography of the Louvre.

"A Harlot's Progress" Plate 3 Etching
By William Hogarth
Located in Houston, TX
Etching from the series titled "A Harlots Progress" by William Hogarth. The series consists of six paintings and engravings. The story is about a woman named M. Hackabout who arrived in London and started working as a prostitute. The third plate is of her getting arrest for her choice in profession. The series is a satirical story that emphasizes the dangers of being a prostitute and the health risks that come from it.
In 18th century engraving, the detail of the black mole on women and men's face is a symbol of the deadly venereal disease, syphilis. In this plate, Hackabout has already contracted the disease and that is why the black dot is visible on her forehead as well as her madam's.
In 1828, William Innell Clement published Harlot's Progress in columns on a single page of his newspaper Bell's Life in London #330. The detail with the cross seen in earlier reproductions of the engraving.
Dimensions without Frame: H 14.5 in x W 16.5 in.
