Jean Pierre Louis Laurent Hoüel

Jean Pierre Louis Laurent Hoüel is represented here by a compact group of prints that belong to the etched and engraved tradition of the later eighteenth century, with chinoiserie figure subjects and landscape among the recurring themes. The archive holds fifteen sheets, most of them executed in etching and engraving, with a smaller number in etching alone. The plates date from the years 1755 to 1759, and the titles point to the Suite de Figures Chinoises drawn from the collection of Mr. d'Azaincourt, alongside landscape and frontispiece pieces.
