Eye Candy for Today: Auguste Lepere etching
Old Housea at Amiens, Auguste Lepère, etching. This is in the collection of the National Gallery of Art in DC, which has a high resolution downloadable and zoomable image file. For some reason, they don’t list the etching’s physical size. My guess from the size of the needle marks would be around 5×7″ (13 x 18 cm) or so.
Louis-Auguste Lepère, a French paintinter and printmaker active in the late 19th and early 20the century, was a prolific printmaker, producing etchings, wood engravings and lithographs.

Eye Candy for today: Jean-Etienne Liotard pastel portrait
Portrait of Maria Frederike van Reede-Athlone at Seven Years of Age, Jean-Étienne Liotard, pastel on vellum, 22 x 18 in. (55 x 45 cm), in the collection of the Getty.
18th century Swiss artist Jean-Étienne Liotard gives a beautiful demonstration of the sensitivity and finess possible in pastel.
There is a subtle teture throughout, likely from the nature of the surface, which is natural vellum (a parchment made from calf skin, as contrasted with the modern use of the term to simply indicate a mild texture of paper or board).

Serge Pelle
Serge Pellé is a French comics artist known best for his work on the science fiction series Orbital (Amazon link), along with writer Sylvain Runberg.
Pellé’s dramatic scenes of futuristic structures, often in deep perspective and extensive detail, are set off by imaginative spacecraft designs intense lighting and otherworldly creatures.
It’s an entertaining series available in the US in an English translation ,published by Cinebook. I think there are eight volumes in total.
Pellé doesn’t appear to have a dedicated website, but there is an extensive selectin of his work on the Character Design References website.
