Graveurs en taille douce au burin et à l'eau forte (Copper Plate Engravers and Etchers)

Abraham Bosse

National Gallery of Art

This is an image of an engraving studio with two artists at work. The studio is well-lit and shows one artist on the left working on a sketch at a drafting table, surrounded by tools and papers, and another artist on the right focused on a copper plate. The studio features framed portraits and landscapes on a far wall, with a cloak and hat hung in the center. The scene is depicted in detailed line work.
