"La Rose mal defendue" "dessine et grave par Deboucourt peintre graveur" Stipple engraving, printed in fabulous colors. Painter and engraver: Philibert-Louis Debucourt (1755-1832) Öfter his own design Paris, dated 1794 Printing copper etchings not just black and white, but also in color was great advancement. In Europe it happened in the 18th century. Severall different plates were used, each with their own color. Debucourt was a master of this technique which needed great precision in order to arrive at a successful result. In this case he used the colors blue, red, rose and brown. The scene is typical for French gallantry. The young lady is more willing than it seems. But she is offering her cavalier a good measure of resistance to his courtship. His hat has rolled off his head, a chair has tumbled to the floor, a book and pillows became victims in the process of tangling. But she is firm, or makes believe that she is determined to keep her ãrose" well out of reach. Very French - if not international. Print is in very good condition. Margins with some faint spotting. 42,4 x 33,3 cm (ca. 16.7 x 13.1")
