Caption | Bones of the pelvis, lower legs and feet. Colour mezzotint by J F Gautier d'Agoty after himself, 1759. Jacques Fabien Gautier d'Agoty, published a series of anatomy plates using a colour mezzotint process which had first been developed by Jacob Christoph Le Blon (1667–1741), in whose workshop Gautier d'Agoty had served as an assistant. In 1737, Le Blon obtained a copyright to publish a complete colour anatomy atlas, which never appeared. To Le Blon's process, which used the three colours of red, yellow and blue, Gautier d'Agoty added black and claimed the process to be his own invention. Created 1759. Human anatomy. Contributors: Gautier Dagoty (1717–1785). Work ID: pgwhpp4b. |
