This 19th-century French artist’s only documented print shows the archangel Michael in a flowing robe, stepping on a dragon beneath a cloudy sky. The image mixes crisp outlines with soft shading, a common style in early 19th-century religious prints sold in Paris shops and churches. Look for the faint printer’s mark in the lower margin of St. Michael, a small anchor symbol used by the publisher. Tap the print to zoom in on the dragon’s scales or the angel’s wings—details that reveal how the image was carved and inked by hand.
