Hendrickje Stoffels (1625-1663) was Rembrandt's model and second wife, and appears to have entered the painter's life around 1648, dying six years before him.
An engraver and watercolorist, Joseph-Gabriel Tourny was the son of Jean François Tourny, a tailor, and Magdeleine Esther Espezolles. He studied with Achille-Louis Martinet at the Beaux-Arts in Paris. In 1844, he won the Second Prix de Rome in intaglio. Two years later, he won the Grand Prix. He married Ernestine Hochet de Laterre in July 1854. Domiciled in Ivry-sur-Seine, he died in Montpellier on March 27, 1880.
