About the Item

Title on the engraving: "Un Christ d'un original très ancien, que la fable donne pour après nature" Translated: "A Christ of a very old original, which the fable gives for nature" The copper engraving by Robert Brichet from the 18th century portrays Jesus Christ, capturing a profile view of Christ facing left. Created around 1800, this engraving has been meticulously crafted by Brichet using the copperplate engraving technique. The depiction of Christ in profile suggests a classical or antique style, possibly inspired by ancient sculptures or artistic representations. Brichet's engraving showcases intricate details and fine lines characteristic of copperplate engravings, allowing for a high level of precision in rendering the contours and features of the bust. Given the subject matter and Brichet's era, this engraving might reflect the artistic influences of the neoclassical period, where artists drew inspiration from classical antiquity. The portrayal of Christ in this style conveys a sense of reverence and classical beauty. Collectors interested in religious art, historical engravings, or representations of Christ from the 18th century would likely find value in this work by Robert Brichet, appreciating its artistic quality, historical significance, and the technical skill involved in its creation.
