"Dessine par Gallier" is a hand-colored engraving and etching by Pierre Laurent (1739-1809) and Pierre Audouin (1768-1822) after a painting by Eustache Le Sueur (1617-1655) in the 17th century. It is plate III from the set of three Muses, published in "Musée français" in Paris in 1803. It depicts the muse Terpsichore, thought to represent Calliope, seated striking a triangular musical instrument. It is held in the collection of The British Museum.
This hand-colored engraving is presented in an ornate antiqued gold-colored wood frame with a beaded inner trim and raised scroll work in the corners and the center of the upper, lower and both side moldings and a beige mat. There is loss of a small area of frame scroll work in the right lower corner and minimal discoloration in the upper margin, but the frame and print are otherwise in excellent condition. The frame measures 23.25" x 18.5" x 1.63".
