His artistic approach relied on the careful control of the burin. In Man in Armour, he used dense cross-hatching to define the weight and sheen of metal. His portrait of Countess Marie Anne Marcolini demonstrates his ability to render soft textiles. In Pigeon Girl, he captured a more delicate subject with the same technical rigour. He maintained a balance between technical accuracy and the personality of his subjects.

These prints appeal to collectors who appreciate the technical skill of the Enlightenment era. The monochromatic nature of engraving allows these works to integrate easily with modern decor. Portraits of figures like Gottfried Wilhelm Leibnitz add a sense of history to a room. The sharp lines and clear compositions provide a quiet, academic atmosphere. They are ideal for studies or formal living spaces.
