VALLE, JOSfi ANTONIO DA (Port.'). An eminent Engraver, born on
15. October 1765, died on n. April 1840. He was apprenticed to
the Gem-engraver Antonio Pichler at Rome, and returned to Por-
tugal about 1800, in which year he executed several medals,
engraved by the same process as used for precious stones.
In 1802, a School of Engraving was founded by Royal decree,
and amongst iti earliest professors we meet with the names of
- i8 7 -
Bartolozzi, Queiroz and Ribara, and Jose Antonio da Valle, who
held an appointment of Engraver at the mint.
A. C. Teixeirade Aragao describes the Engraver as a distinguished
artist, who combined a rare perfection of design with an admirable
neatness and finish of execution, but he preferred gem-engraving to
cutting dies, which fact caused him much annoyance at the hand of
jealous colleagues at the Mint. He however was promoted Chief-
engraver at the Lisbon Mint on 5. March 1830, and in 1836 he
was appointed Professor of Gem-engraving and Drawing at the Lisbon
Fine Arts Academy, a position which he held with honour until
his death.

silver currency, none of the officials gave him redress until he
applied to Philip the Good himself, who ordered that he should be

A Finnish Countrywoman.
At the Paris Salon, she has also exhibited : 1887. Portrait
medallion of M. Vallgren; 1889. Plaquette with Children's
Portraits ; 1892. Seven Medallions, &c. ; 1900. Bas Reliefs, &c.
M me Wallgren obtained a Second medal at the Paris Universal
Exhibition, 1900. She is an Associate of the Salon du Champ de
Mars, since 1897.
VALLGREN, VILLE (French). Contemporary Sculptor, born at Borgo
(Finland) on 15. December 1855, but naturalized a Frenchman;
he studied first at the Polytechnic School of Helsingfors; later he
came to Paris, and entered the Ecole des Beaux-Arts, where he
worked under Cavelier in 1878.
The artist's first exhibit at the Salon des Champs Elyse"es in 1878
was a Portrait-medallion of " A Friend ".
He is hors-concours of the Societe des Artistes francais, member
of the Socie'te' des Beaux-Arts ; he obtained a Medal of the First
189
Class at the Universal Exhibition 1889, and a Grand Prix in 1900.
On 3. August 1904 he was created a Knight of the Legion of Honour.
Many of his works of sculpture and decorative art adorn the
Museums of Vienna, Berlin, London, New York, Stockholm,
Munich, St. Petersburg, &c.
An eminent critic says : " M. Wallgren peut etre considere
vraisemblablement comme le createur de 1'objet d'art decoratif en
Les feuillesjnortes.
France et a 1'etranger. Aux Salons annuels de la Socite nationale
des Beaux-Arts de Paris, ainsi qu'a ceux des Secessionistes de
Vienne, il a fait ecole ; mais peu de sculpteurs parviennent a
1'originalite de son talent et de son metier meme ".
Vallgren has occasionally also modelled Portrait-medals and
Plaquettes. One of his medals, that of L. Mechelin, was presented
to the Finnish statesman, as a token of esteem.
190
" Quoique M. Vallgren soitd'origine finlandaise ", says M. Charles
Saunier in Art dccoratif, 1901, p. 70, " il y a trop longtemps qu'il
habite la France et qu'il traduit avec un gout extreme en d'exquises
statuettes le charme de ses femmes, de ses filles des champs pour
qu'il y ait scrupule a le considerer comme notre. La medaille de
L. Mechelin est sa premiere incursion dans le domaine de la medaille.
L'ceuvre est, au reste, charmante, pleine de sentiment, et symbolise
avec infiniment de grace la gloire d'un fils illustre de la Finlande,
cette petite Grece polaire, ou 1'art est en si belle floraison ".
For a list of some of the most important works of sculpture,
statuary, chasing and decorative art, cf. Dictionnaire national des
Contemporains, III, p. 54, and the Catalogues of the Annual Paris
Salons.
In 1910 he exhibited at the Paris Salon a Portrait-medal ot
A. Edelfelt, and a Model of a Plaquette.
Another Plaquette by Vallgren " Les Feuilles Mortes " (illustrated)
is very characteristic of the artist's style.
' ' Les oeuvres du maitre finnois semblent, en effet, se complaire
dans leur peine ; navres de tristesse, elles sont presque heureuses
d'etre tristes ; elles nous font comprendre 1'elegance du desespoir
et la volupte des pleurs. Bien mieux, c'est de la Fontaine de Pitie
que leur vient un mysterieux apaisement. En des vers candides et
suaves comme un babil enfantin, Henri Bataille encore nous explique
cette influence :
" Non, ce n'est pas les fleurs, non, ce n'est pas Pete
Qui nous consoleront si tendrement, c'est elles.
Elles nous ont connus petits et consoles.
Elles sont la en nous, vigilantes, fideles. . .
Et les larmes aussi pleurent de nous quitter. "
" Cet artiste ", writes Arsene Alexandre, " s'est fait une belle
place dans notre jeune ecole de sculpture, ou il a apporte, avec la
fine et grave poesie des races du Nord, un sens des heureuses adap-
tations du bronze aux objets d'art raffines, et 1'invention de patines
riches et profondes ".

Vallierwas employed as Engraver at the Mint of Nancy from 1602
to 1611.
A document of 1602, given by Lepage, infers that Antoine Vallier
engraved medals : " A M e Anthoine Vallier, orphebvre, demeurant

VALOURS, PIERRE (I) DE (French}. Goldsmith at Troyes, circ.
1575-1612; is said to have engraved medal dies.
In Duhalle's MS, quoted by Rondot, we read : "Le nomme
Valours, fameux graveur et travaillant d'orfevrerie, vivoit sur la fin
de 1'autre siecle, il gravoit en creux, ou pour monnoye ou mdaille,
et entendoit par dessus tout les ornemens de 1'orfevrerie. II avait
des grands talens, mais il finit mal, car il coupa la teste a une fille
de debauche qu'il entretenoit, de crainte qu'elle ne declarat qu'il
faisoit de la fausse monnoye, comme de fait il en travailloit avec un
nomme Piedferre. II faisoit, disoit-on, les coings ; il y en a qui ont
cru que les medailles d'or trouvees en 1726 au faux bourg Saint
Jacques de cette ville etoient de luy avec des coings contrefaits. "
And Grosley (Menwires snr les Troyens celebres, ceuvres ineditcs, II,
p. 429) states : "Valori, vulgairement appele Valours, tres habile
orfevre, tabli a Troyes vers le commencement du dernier siecle. II
excellait dans la ciselure et gravure en creux, pour les cachets et les
coins de monnaie. "
There were several goldsmiths of the name of Valours at Troyes.
Pierre Valours was no doubt the Engraver, who flourished circ.
1575-1612.

at Dordrecht, 1776.

VAN BERCKEL, THEODORE VICTOR. Vide Vol. I, N. E., p. 164.
M. Alphonse de Witte has published in the Gazette numismatique,
1904-9 a series ot articles on this Engraver, and given a list of
his works. He states that Edm. de Busscher's notice of T. V. van
Berckel in Biographic nationale is full of errors.
The following notes are culled from M. de Witte's monograph,
which is most exhaustive.
Theodore Victor Van Berckel was born at Bois-le-Duc on 21.
April 1739; both his grandfather, Theodore Gaspard, and his
father, Theodore Everard, had followed the profession of silver-
smiths and engravers. In his youth, Theodore also learned the art
193
of engraving on metal, and in view of bettering himself he went to
work under J. C. Marme, Mint-engraver at Cleves. On the conclu-
sion of his stay there, he married, and settled in business at Rotter-
dam, where he engraved a number of medals and some jetons.
In 1776 he went to Brussels to take part in the competition for the
post of Engraver at the Mint there, which since the decease of
Jacques Roettiers in 1772 had not been refilled. The competitors
were, besides van Berckel, Simon Joseph Cattoir, a Line-engraver,
Adrian van Baerle, Mint-engraver at Dordrecht, Francois Joseph Bis,
of Douay, and Conrad Joseph Nethe, a native of Konigsberg in
Prussia. Van Berckel was appointed Engraver-general of the coins of
the Austrian Netherlands on 29. September 1776, and he entered
in office in the following November.
Jean Baptiste Harrewyn, Mint-engraver at Brussels, died on
22. December 1783, and his successor, Christian Haller, not being
appointed until 7. April 1787, it is probable that van Berckel filled
the post in the meantime and thus enjoyed the special fees (droit
du marc) which he had claimed in vain before and which were the
special privilege of the " graveur particulier ". On the outbreak of
the Revolution in Brabant, van Berckel accepted to remain in the
service of the United Belgian Provinces, but in the course of the
first French Invasion (6. November 1792 to 18. March 1793) he
refused to serve the Republic, and on the definite occupation of
the country by the French, the Engraver-general and most of the
officials of the Mint left Brussels. While his wife and children returned
to Breda, in Holland, their native home, he went to Linz (Upper
Austria), and later, in 1/97, to Prague ; then, with the government's
permit, he finally settled down at Anholt in Westphalia.
By decree of 22. June 1798, Van Berckel was appointed, on the
recommendation of J. N. Wirth, Chief-engraver at the Vienna Mint.
Partial loss of his eyesight caused him to obtain a leave in 1803,
when he returned to Bois-le-Duc. Three years later he went back to
the Austrian capital, but only for a few months. He died on 19.
September 1808 at Bois-le-Duc, in his seventieth year.
" Doue d'une grande habilete de main, d'une facilite de travail
vraiment merveilleuse et d'une vive imagination, Theodore van
Berckel, par son amour excessif du precis, servi par son adresse a
consigner les minusculites en apparence insaisissables, a, peut-etre,
quelque peu neglige cette loi dominante de la gravure en me"dailles:
Savoir rester grand, tout en faisant petit, par le sacrifice voulu des
parties d'impoRtance secondaire" (A. de Witte, he. cit., p. 62).
M. de Witte gives the following list of van Berckel's produc-
tions : -

Levant ; Couronnes of the Brabant-Flandres type ; - - i and 2
