Born in 1792, Charlet's talent for both lithography and painting quickly gained recognition. One of his most famous creations is "Shipwreck of the Meduse" (1820), a collaboration with Theodore Gericault that depicts the tragic events surrounding the sinking ship.

This unique blend of artistry and practicality showcases his innovative approach to creativity. As a lithographer and painter, Charlet established himself as a prominent figure in France during his time.

"The Late M Charlet" engraving pays tribute to this remarkable artist who passed away in 1845 but continues to leave an enduring legacy behind. His contributions to the world of lithography are celebrated in pieces like "The Lithograph Dealer, " where he captures scenes from everyday life with meticulous detail. Charlet's fascination with military themes is evident throughout his work. In "The French Soldier" (1818), he portrays soldiers with great respect, highlighting their bravery and sacrifice on behalf of their country. Similarly, his series titled "Military Costumes" offers intricate depictions of infantry sergeants and carabiners sargents - showcasing not only their uniforms but also their distinct roles and responsibilities.
