A watercolorist and printmaker who specialized in copies after the Old Masters, Tourny twice won the Prix de Rome for his engravings and regularly exhibited in the Paris Salon after 1857. It is generally accepted that Tourny taught Degas the art of etching in Rome. The print bears the small image of the head of a monk, seen in profile in the margin of the plate. Known as a remarque in nineteenth-century  printmaking, the motif probably indicates the quiet nature of the sitter and the Roman setting.","remarks":"K4-6 Gallery Rotation, also used in K4-6 February 2015 rotation"}],"datebegin":1857,"sortnumber":"1960 6x","published_date":"2026-02-11 08:34:07.162191","objectid":10247,"dimensions":"plate: 23 x 14.4 cm.
