Eloge de Mr. le Clerc, chevalier romain dessinateur, et graveur ordinaire du Cabinet du Roi : avec le catalogue de ses ouvrages, et des réféxions sur quelques-uns des principaux
A 1715 French eulogy of the engraver Sébastien Le Clerc, written by the abbé de Vallemont and published in Paris by Nicolas Caillou and Jean Musier for readers interested in engraving and the king's cabinet of drawings. Its pictures are copperplate engravings: an oval portrait of Le Clerc in a periwig, a fleshy foliate ornament with a lion mask, and an allegory of Justice with scales and a sword beside a coat of arms and a cherub, all rendered in fine crosshatched line that a designer could study for baroque ornament and framing.
