Claude Fessard

Also known as: Claude Fessard; primary name: Fessard, Claude; other name: Fessard, Claude Mathieu
Details: individual; printmaker; French; Male
Life dates: 1740 ?-1803 ?
Biography: Engraver and etcher. He does not seem to be related to Etienne Fessard (q.v.) and he sometimes signs as 'Fessard l'ainé', probably to distinguish him for his brother (?) Marin Fessard, who signs as 'Fessard junior'. Wrongly called Claude Mathieu by Le Blanc, who also gives his dates as 1740-1803, an information which has not been verified.
