Israel Silvestre
French Baroque Era Engraver, Israël Silvestre, called the Younger to distinguish him from his father, was a prolific French draftsman, etcher and print dealer. He specialized in topographical views and perspectives of famous buildings. Orphaned at an early age, he was taken in by his uncle in Paris, Israël Henriet, an etcher and printseller and a friend of Jacques Callot. Between 1630 and 1650 Silvestre traveled widely in France and Italy and later worked up his sketches as etchings, which were sold single and in series. His work, especially of Venetian subjects published in the 1660s, influenced eighteenth-century painters such as Luca Carlevarijs and Canaletto, who adapted his compositions. In 1661, he inherited the stock of plates of his uncle, the printseller Israël Henriet, among which was a large part of the works of Jacques Callot and many of those of Stefano della Bella. In 1662, he was appointed dessinateur et graveur du Roi and in 1673, he was appointed drawing-master to Louis, Grand Dauphin. From 1668 he was granted workshop space in the galleries of the Louvre, where the practice of housing eminent artists and craftsmen was a tradition that originated under Henry IV. Silvestre's atelier was large, he had at least two pupils who had careers as engravers, François Noblesse and Meunier. In 1670, Charles Le Brun recommended him for membership in the Académie Royale de Peinture et de Sculpture. In 1675 his son, the artist Louis de Silvestre was born at Sceaux. He passed away on October 11, 1691, in Paris, France.

C. 1625 After Antoine de Pluvinel, "Henry IV, Mounted", Hand Colored Engraving
Located in Morristown, NJ
Early 17th century, French hand colored equestrian engraving. After Antoine de Pluvinel (French, 1552-1620), "Henry IV, Mounted", figure 42 from "L'Instruction du Roy en l'Exercice de Monter a Cheval", c. 1625, matted and framed under UF-3 plexiglass (blocks approx. 97% of UV) , gallery label verso. Figures from this publication have sold at Christie's. Those were not hand colored.
A highly detailed engraving with the French King Henry 1V the central figure. Mounted on horseback, Le Roy (the King) is watched by no less than 10 courtiers some of whom are mounted on horseback, all of which are named in the engraving.
Antoine de Pluvinel (1552, Crest, Dauphine - 24 August 1620) was the first of the French riding masters, and has had great influence on modern dressage. He wrote L’Instruction du Roy en L'exercice de Monter à Cheval ("instruction of the King in the art of riding"), was tutor to King Louis XIII, and is credited with the invention of using two pillars, as well as using shoulder-in to increase suppleness.
In 1594, Pluvinel founded the "Academie d'Equitation" near what is now Place des Pyramides. There, the French nobility was trained not only in horsemanship, but also in all the accomplishments (dancing, fashionable dressing, etc.) It can be said that Pluvinel's influence on the aristocracy lasted from the late 16th century to the 17th century. Richelieu, the future Prime Minister of King Louis XIII attended the Academie; so did William, Duke of Cavendish.
Pluvinel's book was published posthumously by the Flemish engraver Crispijn van de Passe II and the royal valet de chambre...
