Last September, the museum was able to acquire a lot of old prints according to Edme Bouchardon.
He chose six, to have them restored and mounted. These are shown for the first time, on September 17 and 18, 2022.
These are sheets taken from collections intended for the learning of artists or from the series of five senses engraved by the Count of Caylus and Etienne Fessard.
