Jean Lattré

Jean Lattré was an ordinary engraver of the King and Monseigneur le Dauphin (1767) first, of the Duke of Orleans and then of the city of Paris (1771). He specialized very early on in carving maps and city plans, but he was also a calligrapher, like his wife, born Vérard. He worked in association with the bookseller and publisher Nicolas-Augustin Delalain (since 1771); part of his fund was acquired in 1801 by Charles-Antoine-Florimond Dien.
