"Since 2004, the Dallas Museum of Art has been the repository of the renowned collection of eighteenth-century French art assembled by the late Michael Rosenberg. The long-term loan of these masterpieces greatly enhances the collection of European art at the Museum, and the series of scholarly lectures funded by the Foundation, the Michael L. Rosenberg Lecture Series, gives a powerful boost to its European art program. Those lectures, presented by top scholars in the field of European art history, are re-presented in this volume"--

Excerpt from French Prints of the Eighteenth Century In the following pages an attempt has been made to supply clear and reliable information likely to prove of use to those interested in French engravings of the eighteenth century. Up to the present no work written in English has appeared, dealing with the subject from the collector's point of view. The late Lady Dilke wrote with much erudition and artistic judgment of the French draughtsmen and engravers of the period, but her admirable work scarcely touched on the question of "states," and made no attempt to discuss the decorative value of the various prints. Amongst the chief sources drawn upon in compiling the present volume must be mentioned Les Graveurs du dix-huitieme siecle, by Baron Portalis and M. Beraldi, and Dessins, gouaches, estampes et tableaux du dix-huitieme siecle by M. Bourcard. These valuable contributions to the literature of art are monuments of careful research and unimpeachable accuracy.
