Pierre Philippe Choffard

Pierre Philippe Choffard belongs to the French rococo printmaking tradition, working above all as an etcher and engraver of ornamental and emblematic subjects. The archive holds a single sheet by him, the Diploma of Free Masons of Bordeaux, executed in etching and engraving and dated to 1765, with impressions up to that same year according to the Met's records. The piece represents his period at its most characteristic, combining fine linear work with decorative design.
