Nicolas Fouquet
Flamen was a prolific engraver who produced works for a number of prominent patrons including Guillaume Tronson, Advisor to the King, Gilles Foucquet, son of Nicolas Fouquet and Advisor to the King, the Marquis d’Illiers de Chantemelle and Monsieur de Sève, abbot of the Isle and chaplain of the king. These patrons tended to be closely allied to the Royalist cause during the struggles known collectively as "La Fronde".
