He then retired from publicity till 1846 when he appeared as the exhibitor of some works in lithography to which branch of art he afterwards restricted himself. In this line he produced a lithographic album 'Views in the Environs of Paris' 'Studies of Animals for an edition of Buffon' &c. He obtained a gold medal in 1824 a second class medal in 1836 besides several others from Lille Douai and other cities. He died at Viroflay in 1866.<br/><br/>Alexis Eymery 1774-1854 aka.
