Duc's Picture
This
very
rare engraving of Lauzun is owned by Leslie Andrich. Leslie and her
Mother,
a respected antique dealer in the Midwest, stopped in a shop in
Illinois
several years ago. Leslie was perusing through a 3-ring binder labeled
"19th Century Engravings" and there, second to last, was this
engraving
listed at an incredibly low price. It was printed sometime around
1820-30. Needless to say, Leslie restrained herself just long enough to
make the purchase and rush outside.
