Charles Errard le fils

Charles Errard le fils was a graphic artist active exclusively during the first half-decade of the 17th century, with all documented activity falling between 1601 and 1606.

The artist’s known output consists primarily of Charles Errard le fils prints, though one drawing is also represented in major institutional collections. Their work often focused on detailed studies of horses, specific national equestrian types, and combat scenes, evidenced by titles such as Cheval de Combat, Chevaux Poulonnois, Chevaux Tartare, and Conbat d'une Pantere et d'un Cheval. This focus suggests a specialized interest in military or veterinary subjects of the period. An allegorical or mythological element is also present in the print Foliate Amor Pouring a Drink for a Griffin.

Seven distinct works attributed to Charles Errard le fils, including six prints and one drawing, are preserved in museum collections, most notably at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Since these historical works are now in the public domain, they are often available as high-quality prints or downloadable artwork for scholarly research and general appreciation.
