Johann Georg Wille (1715-1808) was a German engraver from Hesse who
settled in Paris in 1736 and practiced his art there until his
death in 1808. He soon became the central figure in a wide-ranging
network of correspondents extending across Germany, Switzerland,
Italy and Denmark. His correspondence gives a precise chronology of
his relations with artists (A.R. Mengs, C.W.E. Dietrich), writers
(J.J. Winckelmann, S. Gessner), art patrons (C.L. von Hagedorn) and
visitors to Paris. As such it represents an important document on
European art and culture transfer in the second half of the 18th
century.
