Chez Huquier
Chez Huquier is the name associated with a single sheet in this archive, an etched and engraved print titled Taste. The attribution points to the circles of eighteenth-century French ornament and genre printmaking, where etching combined with engraving served to reproduce decorative designs and figurative subjects with fine linear detail. The collection therefore holds one example of this reproductive printmaking tradition, represented through that lone impression. Its precise date is not recorded, so the sheet is best described by its technique and subject rather than by a fixed year.
