Acquaforte e bulino, circa 1680, dalla serie dal titolo Livre de Fleurs par Vauquer stampata e pubblicata a Parigi dall'editore e mercante di stampe Francois de Poilly intorno al 1680. Vauquer (o Vauquier) era un incisore, disegnatore e incisore di oro (1621-86). Le sue superbe stampe mostrano una delicata incisione, secondo le sue composizioni e quelle di Jean-Baptiste Monnoyer, suo maestro e parente. A parte alcuni soggetti biblici su fondo nero per medaglie, tabacchiere o casse di orologi, egli rappresentò soprattutto fiori in bouquet o in vasi, cesti, ghirlande o fregi. Vauquer è considerato uno dei più prestigiosi disegnatori di composizioni di fiori del Seicento europeo, i suoi lavori sono inseriti nelle più importanti collezioni pubbliche e private del mondo. Questi furono pubblicati da Nicolas Langlois (1640-1703) o François de Poilly (1623-93), spesso raggruppati in serie: Livre de fleurs (10 tavole); Vases de fleurs propre pour les peintres, brodeurs et dessinateurs (40 tavole); Livres de fleurs propre pour les orfèvres et graveurs (8 tavole, firmate v. f. con l'annotazione à Blois).

Vauquer (or Vauquier) was an etcher, draughtsman and gold-engraver (1621-86). His superb prints show a ‘delicate line, after his own compositions and those of Jean-Baptiste Monnoyer, his master and kinsman. Apart from a few biblical subjects on black ground for medals, snuff-boxes or watch-cases, he mostly represented flowers in bouquets or in vases, baskets, garlands or friezes. These were published by Nicolas Langlois (1640–1703) or François de Poilly (1623–93), often grouped in series: Livre de fleurs (10 pls); Vases de fleurs propre pour les peintres, brodeurs et dessinateurs (40 pls); Livres de fleurs propre pour les orfèvres et graveurs (8 pls, signed v. f. with the annotation à Blois).
