Joseph Théodore Richomme
Joseph Théodore Richomme belongs to the generation of French engravers who carried the neoclassical line into the nineteenth century, working above all with etching and engraving. His plates translate painted and drawn compositions into precise, linear prints, and the present archive preserves one such sheet, dated 1825, including any impressions printed later. The Death of Leonardo da Vinci stands as the single example of his reproductive craft held here.
