Jean-Baptiste Barbé
Jean-Baptiste Barbé is represented here by a single engraving, The Holy Family with Saint John the Baptist, a religious subject rendered in the first state of three as described by Hollstein. The sheet is dated 1600, the period from which this collection's holding derives, though later impressions may fall within that span. Barbé's work belongs to the tradition of reproductive and devotional engraving, where fine linear detail carries the image.
