Louis Jacob
Louis Jacob is represented in this archive by a small group of prints devoted to the apostles, among them Saint André, Saint Mathew and Saint Thomas. The sheets belong to the graphic traditions of early eighteenth-century printmaking, executed consistently in etching and engraving. All three works held here date from 1726, and the impressions may reflect later printings up to that year rather than fresh plates. Together they offer a compact view of the artist's approach to religious figuration through line.
