The personification of self-discovery by Jean-Charles François, 1760
Jean-Charles François (4 May 1717 – 22 March 1769) was a French engraver.
François was born at Nancy. He was among the first to introduce engravings representing crayon and chalk drawings, and was pensioned by Louis XV, who employed him extensively. His most noted works represent that king and his queen, Pierre Bayle, Erasmus, John Locke, and Nicolas Malebranche.
He died in Paris, aged 51.
