Martinet, François Nicolas (French engraver and draftsman, 1739-after 1796)
|
Note: Related to Charles Dupuis and Nicolas-Gabriel Dupuis. Employed as Graveur du Cabinet du Roi, 1756, under the Menus Plaisirs du Roi. Here he made engravings of the Slodtz family, the catafalque of the Dauphin, 1766, of Elisabeth Farnese, 1766, and the Dauphine Marie-Joséphe, 1767; the latter three after Charles-Michel-Ange Challe. Martinet also illustrated plays and comic operas by Marmontel, Philidor, and others. On these he worked in collaboration with his sister, Thérèse Martinet. He engraved portraits, genre scenes, and landscapes; produced books of ornamental drawings and engravings, and created book illustrations for writers such as Jean-Jacques Rousseau and Voltaire. He excelled as an illustrator of natural history, and as a designer of ornament. He did engravings for three volumes of "L'Histoire et Description de Paris," 1779-1781, which he left unfinished.
