In 1849 Charles-Emile Jacque (1813-94) fled Paris to escape from the cholera epidemic to the rural retreat of Barbizon in the company of his friend Jean-Francois Millet. The rest is art history. Although not so well known today, he was a central figure in the important ‘early modern’ Barbizon School of landscape painters for several decades. He was, moreover, a central figure in French 19th century printmaking and particularly etching. He ranks with Bracquemond, Buhot and Meryon as a central figure here. His Grove Art Online entry states that ‘more significant are his etchings; this medium was beginning to undergo a revival in popularity at the time… to a large extent through Jacque’s efforts. Working in etching and drypoint, he produced numerous small prints of rustic life, beggars, farm animals, cottages and landscapes.’ He was a major figure in the Rembrandt revival, and stylistically his handling of etching owes a lot to his predecessor. An important admirer was Charles Baudelaire:
