In the 19th century, the Louvre Museum asked Alphonse Alexandre Leroy, engraver, to reproduce in facsimile drawings from the Louvre's collections and private collections published by the artist himself, in albums, between 1860 and 1880.

The cuts, grooves and grains engraved in the steel plate reveal the fluidity, roundness, firmness, sfumato to copy the original design as accurately as possible.
