We know the engraving by François Chauveau, in the opposite direction of our drawing, which is kept in the Department of Graphic Arts of the Louvre (inv. 30821.21). F. Chauveau made the engravings after the Life of St. Bruno painted by Eustache Le Sueur for the small cloister of the Carthusian monastery of Paris installed in the Hôtel de Vauvert. This painting was accidentally destroyed.
