François Chauveau was a prolific draughtsman and engraver celebrated in his time. His reputation surpassed that of his contemporaries and was equal to Sebastaien Leclerc's. Praising the poetic charm and richness of his compositions, Charles perrault mentioned him in his "Hommes illustres qui ont paru en France" as one of the greatestengravers of his time, on a par with Callot, Mellan and Nanteuil.
The catalogue presents 67 unknown drawings by François Chauveau, followed by 9 drawings by Baptiste Pellerin of Allegoroes personifying human virtues - models for prints by Etienne Delaune.
The book is introduced by Maxime Préaud, Honorary curator at the Bibliothèque nationale de France, followed by a biography and a text on the origin and history of the drawing album presented.
