Antoine Couchet
Antoine Couchet is represented here by an engraving from the middle of the seventeenth century, printed in the second or third state of three as recorded by Hollstein. The single sheet in this collection, Time crowning Employment and punishing Idleness, places the artist within the allegorical printmaking of the period, where emblematic subjects were carried through the burin. Impressions up to 1650 reflect the date assigned to the sheet by the Met, which may include later printings.
