Jean-Baptiste Huet was a painter and engraver, and nephew of Christophe Huet. He trained with his father, Nicolas Huet, and was then apprenticed to the animal painter Charles Dagomer (fl 1762–4; d before 1768), a member of the Académie de Saint-Luc.
Huet’s interest in printmaking and his acquaintance with Gilles Demarteau, who later engraved many of his compositions, both date from this period. Around 1764 Huet entered the studio of Jean-Baptiste Le Prince, where he further develop (showing 500 of 3444 characters). |
