philibert-louis debucourt (1755 - 1832)
Philibert-Louis Debucourt was a French painter, caricaturist and engraver.
Debucourt was a specialist in color printing techniques and worked mainly with aquatint. He made engravings based on his own paintings as well as those of Charles Vernet, Louis-Leopold Boileau, and Nicolas-Toussaint Charlet.
Debucourt also competed in wit with British cartoonists who were active when revolutions were raging in Europe. Debucourt depicted people admiring each other in the gardens of the Palais Royale as Paris prepared for carnage. During the Napoleonic period, French political caricature was in its infancy, and Debucourt merely mocked French manners and morals by painting satirical portraits.
