Philibert-Louis Debucourt, a French painter and engraver, was born in Paris in 1765, and became a pupil of Vien. He executed a few plates in mezzotint; the 'Heureuse famille,' the 'Benediction de la mariée,' and the 'Cruche cassée,' after his own designs. But his attention wad chiefly given to engraving in aquatint, in which he produced hischefs-d'oeuvre after Carle Vernet, the 'Horse frightened by a Lion[1],' the 'Horse frightened by Lightning,' the 'Strayed Huntsman,' and other subjects. Bucourt, who was for some years assisted by his pupil and nephew, M. Jazet, died at Belleville in 1832.
