Claude Amable Brasier is a 1800 ink by Charles Balthazar Julien Févret de Saint-Mémin, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This engraving shows a man in profile with a strong nose, sharp cheekbones, and soft light curls. His coat has fine detail, even though the whole image is tiny. Saint-Mémin made these prints by hand. He used a tool to scratch lines into metal, then inked it. The paper feels smooth under your fingers. Look up Saint-Mémin, Charles B. J. Févret de next.
