Excerpt from Illustrated Catalogue of an Exhibition of Portrait Engravings of the Xviith Century: The Exhibition Will Be in Two Groups, French Matters: Mellan, Morin, Nanteuil, Masson, Edelinck, Etc.; Dutch and German Masters: Goltzius, Kilian, Delff, Falck, Cornelis Visscher, Etc The last two examples of the French group, the prints by Chereau and Pierre lmbert Brevet, do not actually belong to the xvllth Century, but these two works of the early xviith Century (both Reception Works for the Academy) are included, as they illustrate most interestingly the transition to a new artistic period. The technical qualities still betraythe brilliancy of the old style, while the arrangement and effect show the strong influence of that new taste which has discarded classical simplicity for a more pompous decorative effect.
