Prosper-Gabriel Audran

Prosper-Gabriel Audran, the grandson of Jean Audran, born in Paris in 1744, was a pupil of his uncle Benoit II, but having no vocation for art, he abandoned it for the law. He afterwards became teacher of Hebrew in the Collège de France, which office he retained until his death in 1819. He etched some studies of heads.
