Although there are some echoes of the style of Dutch artists such as Jan van de Velde, the type of subject and the format are closer to the works of Jacques Callot. The drawing is indented for transfer to the engraver's plate, but no corresponding print has yet been identified.
Cette oeuvre pourrait être attribuée à François Collignon ou à Jacques Callot.
Leopold, Duke of Lorraine and his son François, with other attendants in the grounds of the Château de Lunéville - Pen and brown ink and brown and gray wash
Pen and brown ink and brown and gray wash, over traces of black chalk, within partial brown ink framing lines;
numbered in brown ink: 1 to 11 and extensively numbered and inscribed, verso, with the names of the people and locations depicted
L'attribution de ce dessin à Valentin Duval qui figure à droite sur la scène est très hasardeuse par cette salle new yorkaise. Ne faudrait-il pas préférer voir la main de Joseph GILLE dit Provençal , de Nicolas BEDAN, de Claude CHARLES ou de Claude JACQUART ?
