A catalogue of engravers, who have been born or resided in England . urftenburgh, canonicus, ad vivum pinxit & fecit 1656. This perfon had undoubt-edly received the fecret before his highnefs returned to England. WALLERANT VAILLANT, Though a painter of fome reputation, belongs to this work in thelight only of engraver. He was born at Lifle in 1623, but ftudiedunder Erafmus Quellin at Antwerp, on leaving whofe fchool he ap-plied himfelf to portrait-painting, and being advifed to go to Franck-fort againft the coronation of the emperor Leopold, drew his p^ture with fuch fuccefs, that Vaillantfoon found himfelf overwhelmed withbufinefs, till the marechal de Grammont carried him to Paris, wherein four years he found bufinefs enough to enrich him. He returnedto Amfterdam and died there in 1677. At what period of his life hecame to England does not appear, yet here he certainly was, andcame with prince Rupert, who taught him the fecret of mezzotinto.Defcamps fays that this myftery, as it was then held, was ftolen from Vaillant i />/7>-ms**if.

There is a mezzotinto, as I am informed, byhim, of queen Henrietta Maria, fitting in a fringed chair, with a littlegirl refting againft her knees, and a young man leaning on theback of the chair; he has a ribband crofs his moulder, the edges ofwhich are a little fringed. The lady is at work. I have never feenthis print, but it correfponds fo much with part of the picture offir Balthazar Gerbiers family by Vandyck, mentioned in the fecondvolume of thefe anecdotes, that I fufpect the lady is not the queen, but Gerbiers wife.
