Landscape Drawing

To these could be added the problematic series traditionally called Landscapes for Gaston of Orleans. In the collection of Chatsworth, this corpus includes forty-two drawings which once belonged to Israel Silvestre, a print publisher who inherited his uncle's collection of copper plates etched by Callot. These drawings have been attributed to Callot but the etchings made after these drawings were done by followers. It is believed that Callot died before he had time to etch his drawn compositions and that his publisher had copyists engrave them.
