[Footnote 5: Michel Dorigny, painter and engraver, native of St.

Quentin, pupil and son-in-law of Simon Vouet, whose style he adopted,

was Professor in the Paris Academy of Painting, and died at the age of

48, in 1665. His son and Vouet's grandson, Nicolo Dorigny, in aid of

whose undertaking Steele wrote this paper in the Spectator, had been

invited from Rome by several of the nobility, to produce, with licence

from the Queen, engravings from Raphael's Cartoons, at Hampton Court. He

offered eight plates 19 inches high, and from 25 to 30 inches long, for

four guineas subscription, although, he said in his Prospectus, the five

prints of Alexanders Battles after Lebrun were often sold for twenty

guineas.]
