About this work
Album of prints containing eleven etchings of various Chinese figures in landscapes (chinoiseries) designed and engraved by François Boucher. Plate two of the series is missing. A similar series of prints is described by Guilmard (169.43), although Guilmard indicates that that series is engraved by Huquier.
