Image Size: 23x31
Very good impression.
Realized for the "Société des Aquafortistes. Born on the initiative of the publisher Alfred Cadart, the Société des Aquafortistes had the aim of reviving etching which had slowly been replaced by the cheaper lithography. Among the first participants in the association were the Barbizon painters who helped raise the medium to new heights, but over 100 leading French artists contributed to the creation of the 300 engravings. With the publication of the last volume in 1867 the society, given the high costs and modest commercial success, was dissolved but new experiments were soon born: Félicien Rops, former member, founded the Société Internationale des Aquafortistes in Brussels in December 1869 , while in London The Portfolio and the Society of Painter-Etchers were born respectively in 1870 and 1880. In Paris, in 1873, the magazine Paris à l'eau-forte was founded.

Léon Gaucherel
Léon Gaucherel was one of the pupils of Eugène Viollet-le-Duc whom he accompanied to Sicily in the 1830s. He illustrated a Projet de Restauration de Notre-Dame proposed by Viollet-le-Duc and Jean-Baptiste-Antoine Lassus in 1843. In 1844, he realized several artworks with the etching technique; people called him "the father of the Etchings." Gaucherel realized several impressions for the Gazette des beaux-arts representing landscapes and architecture decorative motives. In 1845, he became the director of the illustrated magazine L'Art, founded by Eugène Véron. Gaucherel passed away in Paris, France, at the age of 69 in 1886.
