The engraving, created by an English School artist in the 19th century, is part of a private collection and has been digitally cleaned to enhance its intricate details. Point d'Argentan holds a significant place in the history of industrial arts. This delicate lacework was highly sought after during its time and remains a testament to the skill and artistry of artisans from that era.

The image transports us back in time, allowing us to marvel at the precision and beauty applied to each stitch.
