Les Saint-Aubin : étude contenant quatre portraits inédits gravés à l'eau-forte
A critical study of the Saint-Aubin brothers by the Goncourt brothers, published in Paris by E. Dentu in 1859, with four portraits etched in the original edition. The pictures are fine etched portraits and sketches of 18th-century French men, with delicate hatching, medallion framing and profile heads that suggest close attention to line and tonal shading in eighteenth-century printmaking.
