"Pierre-Nolasque Bergeret (30 January 1782, Bordeaux – 21 February 1863, Paris) was a French painter, pioneer lithographer and designer who studied with Jacques-Louis David.
He was born in Bordeaux, where he received his early training, then moved to Paris, where he worked in the ateliers of François-André Vincent and then David, where he met François Marius Granet and Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres. Bergeret played a major role in introducing lithography, in part through his reproductive prints after paintings by Nicolas Poussin and Raphael: his lithograph Mercury (1804), reproducing a detail from Raphael’s fresco in the Villa Farnesina, and his caricature of current Paris fashion, Le Suprême Bon Ton Actuel (by 1805) are among the earliest examples of lithographic technique." - (en.wikipedia.org 21.02.2021)
