Note :
Jacques Sébastien Leclerc, known as Leclerc des Gobelins, was a French painter, engraver and draughtsman active during the reign of Louis XIV. Trained in an artistic and scientific environment, he distinguished himself with an abundant output of engravings, illustrations and decorative compositions, often linked to the arts and the royal manufactures, notably the Gobelins, to which he was close. His work, marked by rigorous drawing and a taste for narrative clarity, is fully in keeping with the classical aesthetic of the Grand Siècle, combining art, science and pedagogy.
