Jacques Callot, 1592–1635. Nancy, Musée historique lorrain – Réunion des Musées Nationaux, 1992. Large quarto, publisher’s cardboard binding with an illustrated dust jacket.

Includes, notably, an essay by Paulette Choné, “Boldness, Melancholy: Retouching a Portrait.” Extensive iconography featuring several hundred prints and approximately 250 drawings, abundantly reproduced in black-and-white and color. Detailed catalog of the exhibited works, including dimensions and bibliographic references. A fine copy. Some slight signs of wear on the dust jacket.
