===1767 Ducarel engravings===
FOWKE states that Ducarel republished Montfaucon's engravings along with a description of the scenes made a few years previously by Mr. Smart Lethieullier.[FOWKE 1875]<br>.To me the drawings look Hicks, I think more like correctly, attributes the engravings to those engraved for published by Lancelot's 1733 publication although they are not an exact copy of these either in 1732. Apparently the French ambassador, Duc de Nivernois, was instrumental in getting permission for this [HICKS 2006:p.86] <br>.
