Note:
Jacques Sébastien Leclerc, known as Leclerc des Gobelins, was a French painter, engraver and draughtsman active during the reign of Louis XIV. Trained in both artistic and scientific circles, he is noted for his prolific output of engravings, illustrations and decorative compositions, often linked to the arts and the royal workshops, notably the Gobelins, with which he had close ties. His work, characterised by rigorous draughtsmanship and a penchant for narrative clarity, is fully in keeping with the classical aesthetic of the Grand Siècle, blending art, science and education.
