Notes:
"This volume can, to some extent, be considered a sequel to 'Drawing on Copper : The Basire family of copper-plate engravers and their works'. Charles Grignion is of particular interest for several reasons. Like the Basires, he was the scion of one of the many families of Huguenot refugees with made a significan contribution to the emergences of Great Bitain as a world power, not only in terms of military conquest and economic growth, but also in the cultural sphere"--Introduction.
