Antoine de Marcenay de Ghuy

Antoine de Marcenay de Ghuy is represented in this archive by a single etching, Tobias Returning Sight to His Father, printed in 1755. The medium of etching places him within the reproductive and narrative printmaking traditions of the mid-eighteenth century, where biblical subjects were common. This collection holds just one sheet by the artist, executed entirely in etching and dating to that single year. Impressions up to 1755 reflect the period in which the plate was produced, without extending beyond the artist's lifetime.
