Lasne, Jean-Etienne (sold)


Jean-Etienne Lasne (1596-1645) was a French engraver and illustrator; brother of the better-known and more prolific Michel Lasne (1594-1667), who became official engraver for King Louis XIII in 1633. The brothers were sons of a goldsmith. Two maps are known to bear Jean-Etienne's imprint: a 1628 plan of Rochelle, and a c. 1640 map of the region around Salses-le-Château depicting the 1639 siege. He appears mainly to have engraved illustrations and portraits; most of his known, signed output bears dates between 1622 and 1629.
