On his way to Rome, he never ceased to draw the most beautiful monuments in France and Italy, and he finally joined his future collaborator Pierre-Fran\u00e7ois Fontaine in the Palazzo Mancini where the Acad\u00e9mie de France \u00e0 Rome was settled.

His pen line is delicate and precise, while the watercolor beautifully underlines the shape and volume of decorative elements.
