Maddalena Bouchard (after 1770-1790) (Engraver)

Description

Maddalena Bouchard was one of the earliest known women to have engraved any series of prints. This etching was included in "Recueil de cent-trente-trois oiseaux des plus belles espèces" (Rome: Bouchard and Gravier, 1775). Bouchard was also responsible for many of the 800 plates included in "Hortus Romanus" by George Bonnelli, published in eight volumes (Rome, 1772-1793), also by Bouchard and Gravier.
