Nicolas Bèatrizet was a 16th-century French engraver, active in Rome. It was assumed that he was a student of Italian engravers, Giorgio Ghisi and Agostino Veneziano, because of their similar styles. From 1540–60, he engraved under the direction of Michelangelo. Joseph Strutt said about the importance of Béatrizet’s works, “o me, they seem to seek any requisite that a fine engraving ought to possess, namely drawing, character, effect, and mechanical execution.”
