About the Item

Bust portrait of two young girls. Colour engraving in crayon manner after François-André Vincent. each 50.8 x 37.4 cm. Circa 1788, Leymarie 662, IFF 6, 74. This sheet is a typical example of the highly developed colour printing technique used by Gilles Demarteau and his pupil and nephew Gilles Antoine le Jeune. The aim was to imitate a coloured chalk drawing as deceptively realistically as possible. The blue passe-partout framing the portrait is also printed. Demarteau created a total of three further reproductions of Vincent's portraits of women. This impressive sheet was created at a time when the demand for colour engravings had already fallen sharply and is rare (see exhib. Cat. Colourful Impressions, ed. by M. M. Grasselli, Washington 2003/04, no. 73, p. 133). Excellent impression, fresh colours, the lower margin trimmed so that the address is missing. Minimal conservation defects, otherwise a very good copy. signed Vincent/ A Paris chez Demarteau Graveur Cloitre S Benoit/ No 662/ Demarteau Sculp. 1788 Crayon style colouring after Francois-Andre Vincent. Color crayon manner engraving. Very fine chalk manner and tool work, printed in red, black, and blue inks. AFTER François-André Vincent, by Demarteau, as Vincent was responsible for the design while Demarteau created the prints. Portraits of Two Ladies, Old Master, Print, 18th Century, French, Demarteau

Anthony van Dyck, Engraving Ernest de Mansfeld, c. 1654, Portrait, Iconographie
By (After) Anthony Van Dyck
Located in Greven, DE
A wonderfully detailed and charismatic portrait, this exquisite work illustrates the technical mastery and artistic vision of Van Dyck. Ernest de Mansfeld's stately yet approachable expression reflects Van Dyck's refined ability to comfort and relax his subjects, resulting in a realistic and acute portrait. Ernest de Mansfeld was a German military commander during the early years of the Thirty Years War. Donning his armor and an ornate, lace collar, de Mansfeld appears as a strong commander. Without a hint of a smile, he calmly gazes out, the definition of cool and collected. Van Dyck accurately captures the sense that de Mansfeld is a man who takes his job seriously, a man worthy of commanding an army in battle. This portrait is a Mauquoy-Hendrickx State II (of II), engraved by Robertus van Voerst in collaboration with Anthony van Dyck (Antwerp, 1559 - London, 1641) as part of his Iconographie series of engraved portraits of famous people...
