Jacques Couché
Jacques Couché belongs to the French printmaking tradition of the late eighteenth century, working in etching and engraving on subjects drawn from classical mythology. His sheets in this archive date from 1786, the period in which the present impressions were issued. The collection holds a single example of his work, The Judgment of Paris, reproduced through both etching and engraving. That lone sheet offers a compact point of entry into Couché's graphic handling of mythological narrative.
