Artists and Engravers: Made by De Longueil after Ch. Eisen. Joseph de Longueil / Longeuil (1730-1792), was a French engraver / graveur du roi. Charles-Dominique-Joseph Eisen (1720-1778), was a french painter and draftsman. He was the son and pupil of Frans Eisen. In 1741 he went to Paris, and in the following year entered the studio of Le Bas. His talent and his sparkling wit gained him admission to the court, where he became painter and draftsman to the King, and drawing-master to Madame de Pompadour.
