Description

The verses in French below the envraving praise the "ingenius engraver", who is able to emulate the most excellent painting ('Que le graveur ingenieux faict bien icy voir à nos yeux l'excellence de la peinture!'), contrasting his work to that of 'Vulgar painters' ('ces peintres vulgaires qui passent pour des ignorants').
