Pierre-Michel Alix; Jean-François Garnerey

Pierre-Michel Alix and Jean-François Garnerey were printmakers known for their collaborative output during the late 18th century. Their recorded period of activity spanned a concise window from 1791 to 1796.

The collaboration is documented through various prints preserved in major institutions, including six works held in the collections of the National Gallery of Art. The subjects depicted in their prints reflect major political and philosophical figures of the Enlightenment and the nascent French Revolutionary period.

Their documented works include portraits of Enlightenment philosophers such as Jean Jacques Rousseau and F.M. Arouet de Voltaire. They also produced graphic representations of key revolutionary figures, notably Charlotte Corday and Michel Lepelletier. The availability of these historical works, often now in the public domain, allows researchers and enthusiasts access to high-quality prints. As historical works, many examples are frequently available as downloadable artwork for study and reproduction.
