DOSSIER, Michel. Drawing complicated anamorphoses L'optique. (Paris, ca. 1725).
Fine print illustrating the drawing of a complicated anamorphosis print, which can only be viewed with the help of a special mirror, made after a painting by Allou. Michel Dossier, who was born at Paris in 1684 and died around 1750, was a French engraver who made a large number of fashionable engraved prints. The drawing and viewing of anamorphoses, especially slightly 'naughty' ones, had become highly 'en vogue' again in the early 18th century, mainly as a joyful pastime at a party or within a merry company. The poem underneath also puts the emphasis on the pure amusement of both the drawing and the viewing of anamorphoses prints.
Fine copy, kept within a passe-partout.
Not found recorded; cf. Le Blanc II, p. 140 (listing a number of other titles); Nouv. Biogr. Gen. 14, col. 666 (idem); Portalis-Bualdi I, p. 755 (idem); not in Thieme-Becker.
