Légende
Young Girl Holding a Bird. In 1757 a printmaker named Jean-Charles François developed a printing technique to make facsimiles of chalk drawings. He perfected his method by inventing tools with toothed points of varying thicknesses set at irregular intervals and angles, imitating the random character of grains of chalk on textured paper. Demarteau adopted François's specialized implements to copy the chalk drawings of such well-known artists as Le Prince and François Boucher.
