John (Jean) Condé
1765 - 1794
Condé is sometimes thought of as an Englishman, but was born in France and on at least one occasion styled himself as a French artist. He is known for a series of prints executed from the portraits of Richard Cosway and engraved in pale, delicate tints, using stipple, sanguine, or aquatint, and sometimes enhanced by enclosing them in frame-like borders, called "glomisages" from the French engraver Glomy, who first designed them. Conde engraved portraits of celebrities for the European and other magazines, including Thespian Magazine.
