Portrait of Jean-Claude Richard de Saint-Non

About

Jean-Claude Richard de Saint-Non was a French painter and printmaker. He was born, and also died, in Paris. He is often rather misleadingly known as the "Abbé de Saint-Non"; although intended for the church by his family, he never took more than minor orders. He was a pioneer of the aquatint technique in printmaking.
