Louis Antoine Crozat, Baron de Thiers, Paris

Louis Antoine Crozat, Baron de Thiers, is represented here as an etcher whose small-scale prints center on children at play, including Chinese children with a parrot and a pair of children with a drum. The prints rely on etching, with one sheet combining etching and engraving, and belong to the middle decades of the eighteenth century. This archive holds three such sheets, dated by the Met to 1760, with impressions up to that year.
