Bertrand Andrieu
Bertrand Andrieu (November 4, 1761-December 10, 1822), French engraver of medals, was born at Bordeaux. He is considered as the
restorer of the art in France, which had declined after the time of Louis XIV.; and during the last twenty years of his life he was entrusted by the French government with the execution of every work of importance. Many of his medals are figured in the Medallic History of Napoleon.
