Louis Jean Desprez
Louis Jean Desprez is represented in this archive by a single sheet, an etching with hand-coloring depicting The Girandola at the Castel Sant'Angelo. The subject places him within the tradition of late eighteenth-century architectural and topographic views, where celebrated monuments and spectacles were recorded in print. Etching serves as the sole technique documented for this holding, supplemented by applied color. The collection thus offers one example of his graphic work rather than a survey of his output.
