« From 1815 until his <strong>de</strong>ath in 1835, Gros conducted the atelier of the exiled David. It was during this<br />

period, in 1817, that he ma<strong>de</strong> his only two lithographs. His painterly approach to the stone was an early<br />

indication of the potential of lithography. Gros exerted consi<strong>de</strong>rably more influence upon the <strong>de</strong>velopment<br />

of lithography in an indirect manner, for many of the finest French lithographers–Raffet, Charlet, Huet,<br />

Barye, Sheffer, Lami and Bonington–were pupils of his atelier. » (Early Lithography, Provi<strong>de</strong>nce, Brown<br />

University, 1968).
