Pair of 18th century engravings, Nicolas Delaunay

Lot of two beautiful monochrome burin engravings, from the 18th century, by the engraver nicolas de launay (1739-1792), engraver of the roi. The first depicts "marital gaiety" after sigmund freudeberg (1745 - 1801), the second, "baignets" after jean-honoré fragonard. Two very distinct subjects united and coherent thanks to the coats of arms, the oval shape of the sketches, and the gilded frames. The engravings are in good general condition, the edges more worn on one of them. The correct frames, with a minimal difference in size between the two.
