Biography

French, 1590-c. 1661
Nationality: French
Notes:
From British Museum website:
Callot's publisher. Son of the Nancy painter Claude Henriet (d.1605), and Callot's best friend. Trained in Rome with Tempesta; c.1620[?] to Paris as a drawing master to the rich. Published Lasne portrait of Callot in 1629 that marks beginning of their association, which carried on after Callot's death, when Henriet purchased many plates from his widow. His stock was bequeathed to Israël Silvestre, his nephew and godson. He etched a few prints himself (badly). He signs his plates as 'Israel', very rarely Henriet.
