Nicolas Edelinck

Nicolas-Étienne Edelinck (9 April 1681 – 11 May 1767) was a French engraver, was born to a family of engravers in Paris, the eighth son of Gérard Edelinck.[1] Although he had the advantage of his father's instruction, and of studying in Italy, he never rose above mediocrity. He engraved some portraits, and a few plates for the Crozat Collection. He died in Paris in 1768. Among other prints by him are the following:

André Campra, 1725; after a painting by André Bouys
Portrait of Gerard Edelinck by his son Nicolas

gollark: Diodes aren't real. Every time current happens to flow the way a diode "permits", it's just coincidence.
gollark: I don't think so. ATX, BTX and ITX are the same... sort of thing, at least.
gollark: I doubt the thermoelectric things are very efficient, but you only need 5W or so to charge a phone.
gollark: It's free as long as you're screaming, yes.
gollark: Besides, the most efficient way to heat your house is to buy old servers and run some computationally intensive tasks on them.
